50 minutes
Thamesrush – 50 unforgettable minutes as you experience high speed aquabatics!
Your experience begins at Westminster Pier which is nestled alongside Westminster Bridge and two minutes walk from Big Ben. At the speed we will be travelling you’ll appreciate the waterproof clothing we provide for your high speed tour of the Thames! Slow it won’t be…
The only jetboat ride on the river. It stops harder, turns tighter and nothing’s faster
There may be other fast boats on the Thames, but there is only one jetboat. And why that’s important to you is that this means our military grade boats are more maneuverable (yes ours are built to the same specification as those used by the military and police). Our experienced skippers really know how to put them through their paces to give you the aquabatic ride of your life!
Thamesrush operates:
April – September: Daily
October – March: Thursday – Sunday only
