In order of disappointment, the cruise was late leaving. The teapot had a huge visible crack and was leaking tea. When the new one arrived the waiter didn't wipe up the spilled tea. The afternoon tea was miserable. Coronation chicken sandwich, some other spicy sandwich, in thick bread. The small cakes were all stale and the cream for the scones tasted synthetic. No more tea offered. My friend hadn't eaten anything as she was unwell and when I asked for a box to take away, I was told " we don't do that. Looking around, the food waste was incredible. The 2 stars were for the cruise, which was enjoyable.

Very nice river cruise with views of major London landmarks. Tea and snacks were delicious. Great for families or couples.

Ships speakers were inadequate. Loud buzzing noise. Could not hear guide, who was the captain. Children running all around and on chairs playing loud videos. Food so so. Saw many leaving on trays after tasting.

Paid extra for a window seat and was shown to a non window seat. When we said we paid extra for the window seat we were rudely told we would have to wait till everyone boarded and then see what was left available. Staff were surly and food wasn't very nice. The tea was luke warm and stewed and had been been made well before we boarded. The scones were hard and we didn't even get clotted cream for them. Very ,very disappointed, the views from the boat were great but that is London , nothing to do with London cruises. Would not book again

Was a lot of fun. Several kinds of tea to choose from and a variety of treats. The crew was helpful and entertaining. Got some amazing pictures of tower bridge, Westminster Abby and Big Ben.

Heather_B

A delicious and filling selection of sandwiches, scones and small cakes, good views of river side buildings from another perspective

Michael_Y

The service was slow and hard to determine what or when the tea and snacks would be served. The narration during the cruise was hard to understand and not particularly informative.
