About this cruise:
Eat, drink, gossip and dance to the sounds of a top Thames DJ playing party anthems from the past to the present. After you've danced 'til you've dropped, enjoy the ever-changing illuminated sights of London, and grab a selfie with Tower Bridge providing the perfect Instagram backdrop! The fun doesn't have to stop when we 'drop anchor'. For those wanting an 'after party, we offer FREE guest-list entrance to a nearby nightclub.
By combining the biggest fleet of party boats with the biggest selection of dates, we run every weekend throughout the year! All our boats are maintained to shipshape standards and run by friendly and professional crew, who ensure a great party atmosphere and a memorable night out.
Birthdays, Office parties, Hens, Stags & Group celebrations are among our regular 'Sailors'. So go grab your 'Shipmates' and step aboard for a night of 'swashbuckling' fun, that's 'knot' to be missed.
