The Plan
Sail in a historic wooden boat from Tower Pier towards Greenwich and back. See Tower Bridge opening for you as you go. Built in 1923, this boat is one of the few remaining boats of it’s kind left in the world.
This is a truly special and unique way to explore the city. Sail past The Tower of London, City Hall, Canary Wharf and down towards Greenwich Pier and the National Maritime Museum then returning back to Tower Pier.
There is a bar below deck in case you would like to buy some drinks. Cream tea with a hot drink will be available to buy on our afternoon voyages. Hot soup (vegetarian option available) will be available to buy on our evening voyage.
What's Included?
- Thames sailing barge adventure with Tower Bridge opening
- Professional skipper and support team
- Indoor and outdoor space
- Toilets
Drinks and Food
There will be a bar below deck to buy nautical ales, wine and soft drinks. Cream tea with a hot drink will be available to buy on our afternoon voyages. Hot soup (with a vegetarian option available) will be available to buy on our evening voyage.What to wear and Accessibility
Warm and waterproof clothes in case it’s cold or wet when you go out on deck. We strongly recommend guests wear sensible, non-slip shoes, and no stilettos.
Please be aware that the Vessel is an adapted early 20th century wooden cargo barge & that those aboard are required to exercise a correspondingly higher degree of responsibility for their own safety, as there are many hazards on-board, for example, some restriction of headroom, steepness of stairways, multi level trip hazards both on and below deck etc. Guests in particular who need to be aware of the structure of the vessel are the very young, elderly guests or those of restricted mobility.
We are proud to be part of Totally Thames 2019 that runs from 1-30 September: www.totallythames.org
