The cruise itself was really nice. Unfortunately due to some technical issues ours was only 50 min instead of 70, but still it was really pleasant. The views were amazing, the music was nice and entertaining and the boat itself seemed good. I would definitely recommend taking a cruise at 7:30 to see the sunset.

The sites of the cruise are what you want to see, and they were outstanding. The boat was the drawback. Only the upper level was open, and even that was only about 75% open, so everyone wanted to be upstairs, and no one downstairs. It was a very long cruise, with no announcements or narration to say what we were seeing. Fortunately, I knew what they were, but that didn't stop everyone around us asking what things were, or telling each other the wrong thing. Overall, because of the open upper deck, it was a little too crowded and hot.

Good value for money and activity as described. No frills sight seeing cruise up the river, amazing views. We went at 8pm at the end of July so had a nice sunset. I would maybe research the time the parliament lights go on if you would like to see that.
