This was more fun than I expected. I really felt I was on a rollercoaster in a good way! Definitely recommend and will definitely try this again in the future. Sit in the front seat! :)

Loved this, so much fun. This company is all about the thrill, you don't go oon a long sight seeing trip along the Thames, its straight under Tower Bridge and then they open her up to speeds of around 40mph. It's pretty exhilarating stuff!
