Once in a Lifetime - Choice of 12 'bucket-list' experiences

This is a fun filled short break in the capital with a full-on, adrenaline-fuelled ride of your life on a tip-top RIB jet boat. The skippers will show you just what these babies will do so you'd better be ready for some serious waterborne action.

These rides deliver top sights and the ultimate high-speed speedboat experience on the Thames.

There are two experiences to choose from:

Thames rush, which starts at Westminster Pier, heads down-river on the riverside landmarks, then as we pass beyond Tower Bridge it's full on pedal to the metal.

Thames max, which also starts at Westminster but then after Tower Bridge takes you for a full-on blast to the Thames Barrier, though you do slow momentarily as you pass Greenwich for you to catch your breath and take in the view!

This is a one-night stay for two people, including breakfast at a premium London hotel and tickets for a high speed Thamesjet experience.
