Even the experience of booking this…

Even the experience of booking this trip with Isabelle was a pleasure, we went on an amazing high speed trip down the Thames piloted by the expert Brad and compered by the extremely amusing Bill. The trip was really exciting and I highly recommend it but what made it superb were the amazing staff.

A fantastic trip!

Thank you for the fantastic trip!
We're very grateful the staff remembered our request to be on the waiting list and so happy they found spaces for us.
It was an absolutely fabulous way to see London’s sights even before they revved-up the motors.
When the boat got really going it was a great ride.
The crew (Nick and Geoff) were really professional, entertaining and informative.
We would definitely recommend Thames Rockets to friends and family visiting London, it was a great way to see the city and enormous fun for us all.

Absolutely brilliant fun with a great crew!

Our whole family absolutely loved our Thames Rocket experience, especially our two young boys who thought it was the best thing ever! Geoff, our tour guide had such enthusiasm and was brilliant fun. The music was great, the short tour was interesting and the speed of the boat was fantastic!!!

0081 had a blast...and so did we!

After hearing about our first adventure with Thames Rockets, my 81 year old mum said we had to go again and include her this time...0081 had a blast speeding down the Thames to the James Bond theme and is already looking forward to riding again. The staff are all brilliant and very funny; safety is paramount but they ensure everyone has an unforgettable time. Brilliant ride...we will be back! Thank You

The best fun we have had in sooooo long! The drizzle did not dampen our good time and we felt well looked after by Richard and Geoff, my kids (11 and 14) loved it.
Can't recommend it highly enough.

I wanted to say a big thank you to Geoff with a G (he didn’t mention 2 f’s!!!) and Nick with an N

My husband & I came to London to visit my sister & her wife whom we’d not seen since their wedding in September 2020.

Our Thames Rocket was part of our catch up and we all thoroughly enjoyed it both the tour part & the exhilarating speed boat part.

Please pass on our appreciation to Geoff & Nick and know we’re all happily passing on our fantastic experience to friends.

Many thanks and best regards, Naomi

Brilliant from start to finish

From the minute we got on the boat, Geoff was brilliant!! He made us feel so welcome and was very friendly. He spoke to all of us individually so no one felt left out. The whole experience was brilliant. My partner and I were down on holiday from Scotland and we’re so happy we booked this trip. Top marks to Geoff!!

Absolutely brilliant

Thank you to Killian and Roddy for a fantastic time even though it was a very wet and miserable Friday we had a brilliant time. They gave lots of fun facts about the river and then went full throttle we had an awesome time. Thanks again from the Essex crew
