When you think of London buses you think of the iconic red double decker buses, but have you tried a river bus? Uber Boat by Thames Clippers really take the stress out of travelling. Kids (and adults too!) love how the catamarans really speed up heading east once they pass Tower Bridge and central London’s speed restrictions.
You never have to wait long as there are departures every 10-20 minutes from key London piers and you can sit back and enjoy the fantastic London views as you glide along the Thames. The 27-minute journey to Greenwich from London Bridge City Pier will go so quickly, you won’t want to get off!
If people-watching is your thing then Uber Boat by Thames Clippers has some interesting passengers, as pets are welcome aboard too – even parrots! Also, if you’re lucky – you can spot wildlife from the boat. Basking seals have been seen sunbathing at low tide beside The O2 on Greenwich Peninsula.
So, let’s recap – no travel delays with busy traffic; fast moving and spacious with room to sit inside or outside; fantastic views of London’s iconic skyline; family friendly and accessible with an onboard café-bar to grab a drink and relax. It almost sounds too good to be true! Plus, with the Family River Roamer tickets, kids travel free, giving you the freedom to explore all day with unlimited travel. Or look out for the East Zone River Roamer, it is perfect value for money for unlimited all-day travel across the east and southeast areas of London along the Thames, which allows you the chance to fully explore the Royal Borough of Greenwich. There are lots of types of tickets available, so there will be something to suit you, no matter what your plans.
Also, every boat is deep cleaned overnight, with touch points and surfaces regularly wiped down throughout each service, so you can just relax and take in the sights.
During September, ‘Totally Thames Festival’ arrives in London to celebrate the River Thames with arts events, adventures, environmental initiatives and heritage programmes. As part of the festival, Uber Boat by Thames Clippers have co-commissioned a new musical composition called float! by Felix Taylor, inspired by the sights and sounds experienced on board the boats. You can hear this piece whilst travelling on the River Bus, just scan the QR code on the boat.
Once you have enjoyed a full day out in Greenwich, sit back and capture the sunset onboard Uber Boat by Thames Clippers as you head home. It makes for a truly memorable end to the day.
It really is an enjoyable way to travel and see the river – it’s about time to enjoy Greenwich with Uber Boat by Thames Clippers.
