Speedboat 'Tower RIB Blast' from Tower Millennium Pier - 20 minutes

A 20-minute speedboat round trip on the River Thames from Tower Millennium Pier, passing the Tower of London and Tower Bridge before a full-throttle run towards Canary Wharf.

This is a 20-minute round trip by speedboat on the River Thames, starting and ending at Tower Millennium Pier. After being kitted out, passengers sit back and watch the river as the boat passes the Tower of London and goes under Tower Bridge. The throttle then opens fully for the run towards Canary Wharf, and the return to Tower Pier is made at the same high speed.

The craft is a rigid inflatable boat with 740hp twin turbo engines. At full power it covers the stretch at high speed, with waves crashing against the hull. Groups are kept small, with a maximum of 12 people per trip.

The outing suits visitors who want a short, fast ride on the Thames rather than a longer sightseeing cruise.
