A boat cruise on the River Thames is one of the best things to do in London and is included in your tour.

The Big Bus river cruise ticket entitles you to hop-on and off any of the river boat services operated by our partners, City Cruises.

The River Cruise includes live commentary and enables you to see London and its attractions from a different perspective. Tower Bridge, HMS Belfast, Shakespeare's Globe and the Tate Modern Art Gallery are just some of the famous highlights that line the riverside.

The free Thames river cruise also offers the chance to travel to Greenwich and explore the National Maritime Museum and the Greenwich Royal Observatory.  No matter how many times you tour the river, you'll enjoy the sights and will appreciate this distinctive perspective on London.

The River Cruise departure times vary, but are approximately every 20 minutes in the Summer and every 30-40 minutes in the Winter. You can board the River Cruise at either Tower Pier, Westminster Pier or Waterloo Pier. Please check with our staff on your day of travel.
