I bought this lunch cruise as a gift for my husband. We were a bit put off on arrival as there were so many people around waiting to board the boat. However, the boat interior is light and airy due to full length windows so you can see all the views. The service is slick and professional and the atmosphere... More

I was not happy when my husband said it was a Jazz cruise, but what a trip. Seeing London from the river, listening to soft music and eating good food! Lovely. Want to try it again!! More

The night time river cruise was lovely, but the interior lighting reflecting from the glass walls meant that unless you were sat next to the windows, you had difficulty seeing anything. Thought the pirouette in mid river and the music playing at Tower Bridge was over the top. The food was OK, but limitations of being on a boat ment... More

We booked a table for 9 people for a Thames Lunch Cruise on Saturday 24th March. We turned up at 11:45 to gain access to the boat and be shown to our places (as was advised with the booking documents). It took nearly 40 minutes before we got to the reception desk and could be shown to our table and... More

This was our 3rd dinner cruise in as many years with Bateaux London. The reason we have returned (with different family members on each occasion) is that it offers visitors to London (our guests) a unique and memorable experience. The boats are different, but each offers an individually good experience. One is traditional and over two levels, the other more... More

My husband and I did the lunch time cruise on the "elite" package. I highly recommend it, as you get a private two-person table right next to the window. It was really a great experience and worth the money. The package came with a bottle of water and and half a bottle of wine. We don't drink, so they let... More

My wife & I enjoyed the new years eve dinner cruise as we were served with as much wine as we could want but the food was not as good a standard as we had on a previous Bateaux cruise for our anniversary in june 2010. We docked at Embankment Pier for the fire work display which we watched from... More
