About

Hop aboard the special sailings from the estuary towns directly to the heart of the capital.

Uber Boat by Thames Clippers is offering more sailings to/from Gravesend and Tilbury. From the estuary towns, you'll be able to travel directly into the heart of capital with fresh air, spectacular views and an onboard café bar.

From Tilbury, the boat will take just 40 minutes to reach Greenwich Peninsula (North Greenwich Pier), or 60 minutes to London Bridge (London Bridge City Pier). Along the way, you'll sail past many of the city's iconic sights, including the Thames Barrier, The O2, The Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, Canary Wharf, and under Tower Bridge.

The River Bus service is the perfect way to get around the capital as well as bookend your trip into town. With an All Day ticket, you can make unlimited use of the services for the day, turning travel time into part of your London adventure!
