Excellent

Maria_N, Oct 2025
Love the tour , it gave me the freedom to stop at Great landmarks and looked around and take pictures

Fun boat ride but limited route

William_S, Sep 2025
Good weather. Staff very nice. But disappointed in the route. Had to get off the boat at northern end to get on another boat to return to London Eye. Then suddenly told to get off at Embankment and walk (a LONG walk after 14 flight day). Had to walk all the way to London Eye hotel including two huge staircases. Did more time walking than riding the boat

Worth the trip

DARRIN_D, Aug 2025

Patti, Jul 2025
Clean, easy to get on and off, loved the bar to get drinks and snacks for the ride. Great way to see many sights.

London river boat lights

DARRIN_D, Jul 2025
Great time all the themes river in the middle of the night seeing all the lights in London and its greatest moments

River Cruise

Chas_C, Jun 2025
Its excellent value for money. A fast service. Well appointments boats. Helpful crew. Efficient handling of customers.

Great when low tide and low passenger numbers

scottp1970, Apr 2025
I take nothing away from Viator and the service was great but we had boats curtail due to high tides and saw many a person left behind due to poor management. Yes it’s great but on busy days it’s full on and lots of time wasted

Horrible in every way. No apologies nor compensation from Uber or Viator. I will never use their services again.

Matthew_B, Apr 2025
This review is bad solely on my experience and is my opinion only. The Uber officials turned me and my daughter away from boarding the Hop on Hop off River Thames adventure 1 day tour because the Uber officials told us they were overbooked! They refused to compensate us. The Uber officials I dealt with refused to provide their names and offered no assistance nor sympathy. My daughter was heartbroken and Viator is not refunding my money! What’s wrong with Viator to refuse to refund me. Uber refused saying I booked through Viator. I will file a credit card complaint.

Great bus trip

Laurieann_W, Apr 2025
Multiple routes with many locations, nice drivers. Liked the audio as we road from stop to stop. Hassle free transportation.

great way to see London

Matthew_H, Feb 2025
great way to see London & also get about... comfortable & fun. bear in mind that although the boats are fast, the regular docking really slows a journey down- great way to travel but not as fast as bus/ train!

Excellent Uber Boat!

Jason_M, Dec 2024
You are able to experience the view of the entire city. You can get on and off all day long without having to use another form of transportation. Staff will assist on when to exit to reach your next destination.

Didn’t work

LissaHolland, Oct 2024
I didn’t realize when purchasing this that you have to go to one of the stations listed to cash in your vouchers. I was staying in North Greenwich which is not one of the places you can cash it in. So, I paid again and then tried to use it in Westminster for the return leg and the ticket booth was closed so you were told to go to the agent at the station who said they couldn’t help.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

London ‘24

Kathleen_L, Sep 2024
Uber boat is one of the best choice to see all the iconic landmarks in one day. We had a one day pass and it was all worth it.

Great time on the Uber Boat from Westminster

WILLIAM_S, Aug 2024
We loved seeing London from the water. It was so peaceful being out of the hubbub of the crowds on the roads and the streets. We began at the Westminster stop where we saw Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, etc. My husband, a big Shakespeare lover, loved seeing the Shakespeare Globe, which he went to see the next day, as we didn't have time that day. We got out at Greenwich, where inside a large park-like setting, we toured the large and wonderful Visitors' Centre. We tried on costumes of the Royal Navy and knight's in armors' accessories, saw a Chocolate House, and rooms that looked just like they did during the Royal Navy days.There was a gift shop and a tea and pastry shop. That is to name just some of the things to see there. Outside, was the most beautiful carousel I've ever encountered. My husband & I rode on it, as did many others. Right near it, there was a huge, very old and very picturesque ship called the Cutty Sark.

No advantage in buying a ticket in advance

Michael_B, Aug 2024
There was disappointment with the trip which we wanted to go to Greenwich ,when we arrived at the pier we were told that that because it was busy , the wait would be about 50 minutes after 3 or 4 boats came we then told the wait would be another 2 hours , in the end we had to get a boat going the other direction and stay on to Greenwich ,we were meeting people in Greenwich so got there nearly 2 hours later than planned , we only waited because we brought the tickets in advance , which there is no benefit in buying in advance as people buying the same day had the choice of not going on the boat as they had not paid

Hop on Hop off a good idea but

Roderick_R, Jul 2024
Waiting in line for an hour to get on the boat limits the number of times you can get on and off. Pay as you go more practical.

Get off and on when you want

Alleena_W, Jun 2024
The best thing is that you can go up and down the Thames all day if you want. Taking in all the sites along the way.

Great Transportation

Paula_S, Jun 2024
Great way to get from one place to another in London. There are many stops along the way to get on and off.

Norman at Grenwich. Top man 👌

Dave_T, May 2024
Norman at Grenwich was a star. He helped us 💯, fabulous Customer Service. He went beyond his duty and should be recognised 👍

Hop on hop off...disappointed!!

Trish_m, Apr 2024
If the weather is bad ie windy & wet this experience is difficult to enjoy. Thr long waits on a pier exposed to the rain, the infrequent service & the one journey we took we were asked to disembark at an earlier destination due to high tide & weather. Somethings are obviously out Ubers control buy I'd purchased 3 adult hop on hop off tkts & had only 1 successful journey in 3 hours. Worse...ehrn asked fir ETA of next craft the staff simply didn't know! Sorry bad day for this experience & expensive day for us!!

Worst Excursion ever

Tina_P, Sep 2023
It was the worst and wasted day with this Uber Thames boat ride. We had to wait for the boat which was fine, then they said that boat wasn't going to make it, it was broken down. Then the one we got on dropped us off at Woolwich said another one would be by but then they said they weren't going to Westminster, the original one stopped and got us and then we had to get of they didn't have enough crew finally another one came and we just got off at Tower Hill and took the underground! That boat wasn't going to Westminster or Waterloo either! I will never use them again. Thank you Tina Peterson

Terrible and unreliable service!

Mario_H, Aug 2023
Terrible and unreliable service!! I wouldn’t book it again. I want a refund. The process to activate a ticket took 20-30 minutes. Only to find out when trying to board that it would take 2-3 boats 25min -1 hour before we could board a boat. We didn’t even ride it because we had dinner reservations and feared we wouldn’t make it on time. Viator and Uber should not be selling more tickets than they have seats….If it’s a busy time you must add more boats. How do I get my refund?

Fantastic!

Debra_D, Jun 2023
This was well worth the money!!! We had a wonderful time. The personnel were VERY helpful to us when we felt lost and in a strange place. They accommodated our every request and need. The boats were clean and well kept. The personnel also went out of their way to be kind and welcoming! I can't say enough about the service we received. We also used this boat service the entire day for transporting us around the city.

Voucher vs Ticket

Kori_D, May 2023
There was no one at the ticket box when we arrived and a sign directed us to where the boats docked. When we got there and showed our vouchers the woman became angry and started yelling the vouchers weren’t tickets. She was crazy unprofessional but let us board. We eventually got off the boat and later re boarded and a man converted the vouchers to tickets and it was a time consuming process. Pretty sure the lady didn’t want to bother with Viator tickets but the boats were nice and we took a ton of great pictures.

Thames via Uber boat.

Saviour_E, Apr 2023
View of London Eye, Tower bridge, Tower of London and the Shard building, from the Thames were amazing.

Pragmatism! Ease with which the sightseeing was possible.

Shahin_H, Nov 2022
Reminiscing Seeing sights that I had searched about and had in mind and were memorable and pleasant.

Friendly staff and the...

Peter_L, Oct 2022
Friendly staff and the stops were in just the right place. The boat was clean but outside was expectedly noisy

Don’t book through Viator

Jennifer_B, Jul 2022
The Uber Boat personnel had no idea how to redeem this voucher and overall it was a huge pain. Do not book this through Viator
