Citicruise ships do not have a guide and the older ships are tired and a bit dirty. Would recommend a more expensive guided tour.

Route was not fully explained - nor how much time was spent at each dock. Never did get to London Eye - walked instead. Did not like that every time we left the dock we heard the same speal about "we're here to run the ship, but if you want us to explain the sights we will - but then we want a tip at the end - to go drinking". We paid enough for the ride - tips should not be expected - that's a lot of money every day just for doing your job that you get paid for already.

This is a good way to see the sights of London. Start at Westminster, go to the Eye or Tower of London or stay on until Greenwitch. On a beautiful sunny day - what better way is there to get around?

Trip is ok, but can get free passes for this through other trips. The hop on hop off bus tour includes this trip.

The boat ride was great, and the crew provided lively commentary, which was really funny and informative. We were on the last ride of the day, and they were about to skip a stop, when we called out to them to request it. As it was, some people missed getting on and off, whoops. Meanwhile, the website information was not up to date, the boats did not run past 5.30! We had to cut short our touring around, despite the itinerary I had printed off the web which said they ran later ('til 8pm). Lucky we caught it at all. And by the way, you can just buy tickets there at the gate, you don't need to book in advance, wish we had, it would have been cheaper for us since my brother and nephew were not well, and I couldn't get a refund for those two tickets!

We enjoyed this trip very much and the commentaries were hilarious. My two points I would like to make are please be firmer with people on the top deck of the boat as not only is it dangerous but people cannot see the sights properly. Also,we pre-booked our tickets on the internet but did not realize we had to line up to actually collect the tickets.when we got to Westminster.Whats the point of pre-booking,at the end of the day everyone got on.
