We went on the river cruise on a cold November day (2024) from Brighton on the south coast and were a party of 5 aged from 30 to 70 and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff at the queues were well orga (Read More)nised and friendly and the tour guide on the boat created a good atmosphere. We were all waving at people on the bridges as we passed beneath them. Warning! If you go in the winter then be sure to wear everything that you possess as it can be very very cold. Down river wasn't so bad but upriver it was very different. Overall, good value and a great adventure.
