What a 'Blast of an Experience 👍 - Booked to go on the 'Tower RIB Blast - 20 minute tour' for Tuesday 24th March 2026, whilst down in London. It was really important that I did this as it was one of my dads bucket list items for London, which sadly he didn't get to do. At first when Georgie contacted me and said there were not enough people booked on I was devastated but she worked hard during that 24hrs to pull groups of people together to make an 'Amazing' experience happen (I can't thank you enough Georgie).
The actual experience was great, the initial part is very informative about tourist information in London, actually learned a few things that we would like to visit (next time of course) but once you get far enough out the speed ramps up and you get your botox for free by fast wind and water spray but it's 'Fab'we loved it. Our Captain and Skipper - Dennis and George, we're great and really nice, made the experience better and I would highly recommend even thinking of sending the boys on it next time, might go back myself.
The best bit, my dad did get to experience it with me (I had some of his ashes with me - not for everyone but ment a lot to me) So a Massive Thanks to Georgia, Dennis and George 👍🌟

Exhilarating experience! - A fantastic experience. Our guides were informative & great fun. The James Bond music adds to the exhilarating experience. Great value for money. This was our third time over the last few years.

Amazing…. Let’s do it again…. - Just fantastic. From the managed arrival on the pontoon (London Eye), from a really sweet young lady. To boarding and lively interaction from Jack, who is hysterical and the pilot, Bill.
Coasting smoothly along the Thames was really great and THEN… 🎶🎼🎵 Live & Let Die 🎶🎼🎶… OMG… hang on, hang on…. Speeding to 007 music, then Queen…. Later the mission Impossible soundtrack…. Sooo exciting, so exhilarating. We were banking, swerving, looping. The speed was something else. I loved it. So much that I couldn’t help screaming. I wasn’t dying but just enjoying this absolutely thrilling experience. Amazing. Thank you so much. We’re going to rebook.

Fun and great customer service - So fun! We were 2 adults and an 18 year old young man, didn't really know what to expect but it was so much more fun than I thought it would be. Worth mentioning, often I get 'sea sick' on boats, but due to the wind in my face and the speed I was fine. Above all the staff were great and good company. Stupidly, I realised I'd left an item on the boat, the staff made some phone calls and their representative come to the tube station with it - above and beyond. Great customer service.
