collection as well as specialist exhibitions.

Pass By: St. Paul's Cathedral, St Paul's Churchyard, London EC4M 8AD England

Built by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of London, St Paul’s is simply awe-inspiring. See amazing views from the dome, but be
warned, it’s 530 steps to the top!

Pass By: Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, 21 New Globe Walk, London SE1 9DT England

A replica of the original Globe Theatre with daily behind-the-scenes tours, and a summer season of Shakespeare’s plays as Elizabethan
audiences would have seen them.

The comments by the boat man He brought London to life He told us where to eat and drink where to visit and what to do in a day we loved it

Julie_M 18th January 2023

Informative and Amusing commentary and interesting sights. Only had time for a short trip but it was enjoyable.

Camper65923191387 8th January 2023

Great outing and views from a different perspective. Very informative and lucky with the weather. I even got sunburned in January!

Robin_F 4th January 2023

Lovely guide, beautiful views, easy to access-just great! We did a one-way so it was somewhat brief but it got us where we needed to go for our Borough Market and Tower of London plans.

Nikki_F 20th December 2022

I think we were ripped off or scammed. We followed the instructions and followed the verbal instructions by the ticket booth agent as well and no boat showed up. The only boat that did was a river commuter vessel, that was no charge or guided tour and was not a part of Viator's partner and we did not get our cruise. Felt scammed and taken advantage of.

Abigail_D 20th December 2022

The attendants at the area we boarded had no idea which boat we should be on, luckily no one really checked the tickets as we boarded. Staff on the boat were very good. Commentary was amusing

Geraldine_B 12th December 2022

The most memorable part was arriving to find the place shut, with no staff present to explain why our tour, which was fully paid for, was cancelled? 3 kids in tow... all excited only to be told by a guy standing there representing another tour operator that was open, that ours was cancelled due to fog. "What fog my 11 year old asked?" To which they guy himself laughed. Perhaps his section of the river didn't have fog??! An attempt to call Viator and no answer. 2 emails sent and no reply? Just under 100euro paid for this Thames Cruise and we didn't even get to go on it ... or be contacted to tell us it was why it wascancelled? Nothing. Nowt. Nada. Zilch.

Karen K 27th November 2022

We did the short 30 min tour from Westminster to London Bridge. We made a couple of enquiries beforehand regarding taking suitcases onboard and availability of toilets on board. These were answered politely and promptly. On the tour one of the staff gave a running commentary of the sights we passed which was informative and friendly. We all enjoyed the tour.

owen_k 26th November 2022

The trip was about to last 30 minutes, was only 20 in reality, so it doesn't worth your money. Quite disappointed.

Melik_H 17th November 2022

Funny host, beautiful scenery & felt safe the entire time. Would definitely recommend this to others
