Thanks for this wonderful video. Brings back memories to 1997, when my 2 American cousins and I met in London, doing this tour on a tourist boat. But, my God! So many changes there since then! Greenwich is wonderful, preferably the old part. Should consider to arrange another family meeting again. Hope this bloody virus will be estincted soon. Greetings from Germany. 😻
Much enjoyed this river trip, it's so changed since I last had a boat ride on the Thames. Amazed at the size of the pier at Westminster but obviously a very busy spot for tourists. I saw more on this trip then I've ever seen before and what great weather we had for it, many thanks.
This was awesome to watch!!! I enjoyed it!! I have done this few times in London. It’s one of my favourite things to do in London. Thanks for showing us and giving us the commentary. Loved seeing all the landmarks. Shame I can’t go to London this year due to the pandemic. I try visit London every year. I expect the next video will be about the Millennium Dome??
Well we will be using the Uber service next month on a day ticket, this video has set us up nicely excellent video hopefully the weather is the same in September. Thanks 😊
Beautiful ride along the Thames. Another great idea for a tour. It was nice to see the bank and cityscape from a different vantage point. And particularly kind of you to hide most of the Walkie Talkie behind the other buildings. Brilliant filming strategy! 😁
Loving all the videos , this one is the best yet 👍 missing London, cant wait to return once this virus 🦠 has gone. Thanks for the entertainment, a lot better than watching 📺
Very nice indeed. This is cool. Haven’t try this. Thank you for sharing. Been watching your vlogs few months ago. And it’s always been great and nice to watch. 👍😘
Why don’t you do walks in windham and camberwell, I’m going to live there with my husband who live there now , please can someone tell me if the place is beautiful or not and what’s good and bad about that area
That was great, thanks. How much did you paid for exact this route? Next time Bus ride, but that would be probably be difficult, because the window problem (reflection) and of course the many traffic jams.
hello and thank you for the video! how do u know which direction the boat is going? I plan to go from london tower to greenwich, but i how do i know before I know the direction unless im there and im looking at the screen? thank u
I didn’t know it got hot 🥵 in London because a English comedian who moved to L.A. said he was tired of always being cold in the U.K. I can’t remember his name but he might be the guy in the Monty Python movies. 🤔

You should come again. London has changed drastically in the last 24 years
Lol
In the coming months when it starts to get dark again these videos full of sunshine will keep us smiling and happy ♥️
Hi there !! Good to see you here !! 😀 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🇬🇧💕💞
Wow this is something new to me, I don’t think I’ve ever seen this part of London in your videos.very nice 👍

I have no words to thank you enough for this ride. I really appreciated. If you can, please make more boat trips over the Thames.
Thanks Daniela 🙂

Very nice video. Prepared me for a trip I'll be taking with a friend in September. Thanks!

Makes you realise how huge London is.😱

Super! Love London!
My home town
Very interesting. Good idea 👍
My Dad and I used to SAIL a little open sailing boat up the Thames all the way to Maybe Kew Gardens
Beautiful video👌thanks
Absolutely wonderful video
Nice tour !!!
Have you ever thought about doing a walk of the London Wall?
Great idea BG, I'll add to my list 🙂
@@WatchedWalker I will be waiting for a walk of the London Wall
who are the mean-spirited users disliking this?
You do have to wonder sometimes, what dismal souls they must be!
The ones that missed the boat.
Looks like fun! There's a quick way to get to East London :)
Such a great footage....
Very nice and intresting.
Thanks!
Thanks very much Margaret! 😊
Wow ✌👍
I saw the cabel cars🎉
Nice Ferry ride.
FANTASTIC
川沿いの街はイイですね!!

Why don’t you do walks in windham and camberwell, I’m going to live there with my husband who live there now , please can someone tell me if the place is beautiful or not and what’s good and bad about that area
I live in camberwell
Good job
Please please make some this type of videos in Wembley London streets
Lovely
Eccelent video, I ser, frim Guatemala 🙏 nice
Thanks CZ, greetings to Guatemala 🙂
@@WatchedWalker God bless you 🙏👍❤️
Nice video and boat trip👍 How about a helicopter flight over London?
Sure, do you have a helicopter? 😉
That was great, thanks. How much did you paid for exact this route?
Next time Bus ride, but that would be probably be difficult, because the window problem (reflection) and of course the many traffic jams.
Thanks Ray, I think it was around £13-15, it was a day pass. I have considered bus rides, but there's lots of issues to contend with.
@@WatchedWalker For London circumstances it is not that expensive, after all it was a over 45min ride.
Is the boat fast or pretty slow
I’m gonna try this one London my home town 🤍🤍
Are there fish In the Thames ?...Just wondering considering how polluted It used to be .
Yes there are now plenty of fish, so many that Cormorants and Herons are an everyday sight.
hello and thank you for the video!
how do u know which direction the boat is going? I plan to go from london tower to greenwich, but i how do i know before I know the direction unless im there and im looking at the screen? thank u
@214aline The timetable says if it’s eastbound or westbound - www.thamesclippers.com/plan-your-journey/timetable

Enjoyable John is Chicago. Be safe and wear a mask.
Thanks John in Chicago 🙂
When was this filmed ?
Dario, August this year, I list the date in the description 🙂
伦敦好漂亮啊
Have you taken the Uber boat mate?
Sure have!
how many knots does that things go?
Maximum speed of 28 knots (32 mph), according to Wikipedia 🙂
@@WatchedWalker i did look afterwards, i feel foolish now, but thank you.
I should not have been so lazy :-)

@@WatchedWalker
Oh l was there 3 years ago it was cold 🥶 but I was ok with the cold.
Thank you for letting me know. 😀
@@panchovilla5359 It can vary from year to year, it's not consistent sadly, though you were unlucky for it to be cold if it was summer you visited 🙁
@@WatchedWalker
I was in London in March but I would like to go back in the summer.
👍👍👍
The thumbnail doesn’t make any sense. You would not be able to see Canary Wharf from that angle.
I thought a woman walking backward near the end of the video, I was wrong...😅
Hi bro
It's too polluted the water is not clear..
Lorraine, it's a tidal river and carries a lot of silt, it's actually one of the cleanest rivers running through a city in the world!
+++
Its a shame the Thames is so dirty.
It's a tidal river.
It's actually silt and mud, a natural silty river, not pollution now. More than 120 types of fish - including the occasional salmon!
