If you’ve ever been to London you will know; The City is quite significantly different (and arguably better) from the water. When you couple a cruise down the Thames with the quintessentially British ‘afternoon tea’, it makes for a remarkable afternoon. Bateaux London is an all-glass boat that cruises the River Thames for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. Departing from Victoria Embankment, this beautiful vessel offers unprecedented views of London by the river whilst enjoying the culinary delights of the team of highly-skilled chefs. Not to mention, the two vessels owned by Bateaux are the only two boats on The Thames to be equipped with on-board galley kitchens so the food is prepared fresh for every diner.
Your ‘afternoon tea’ experience comes complete with a choice of teas and freshly prepared pastries accompanied by the finest musical entertainment to ensure your Bateaux experience is truly wonderful. For many people who have had the pleasure of dining on the vessel have had an exceptional time – Clair Cirket, who has sailed on the boat for both afternoon tea and dinner, said ‘It was a pleasure to sit back enjoy the quintessential English afternoon tradition sipping tea and eating cake, whilst taking in the sights and curiosities of London and the River Thames. A must for all to do, an experience not to forget.’ Among the many sights of London, you will view the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye and the Globe Theatre as you enjoy London from the river. Dr Johnson once said, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.” In response to that, Carol Acker, another attendee of the afternoon tea shared this, ‘What a special treat to enjoy a lovely afternoon tea, sitting on a beautiful boat sailing on Old Father Thames… Who can tire of that?’
