The Plan

See the Thames at its best and some of it most famous and landmarks. Jump into our stable double kayaks and our guides will paddle you with the tide from Greenwich to the world famous Tower Bridge passing the Isle of Dogs, Canary Wharf, and Wapping. We then proceed onward to the Tower of London, turning at London Bridge, passing HMS Belfast and then with the tide in our favour, it whisks us back to Greenwich.


The Paddling

Go with the flow. See the city from a different angle passing all of London's top landmarks, easily viewed from the seat of a kayak, Albert Bridge, Battersea Power, MI6, Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Bankside, Tower of London, Canary Wharf and arriving at Greenwich, home of the Cutty Sark. See London as its meant to be, from the river.

What's included

We use stable double kayaks with rudders, all kit provided and staffed by professional guides. The event is for adults only.

 

What to bring and what to wear

Bring comfortable clothes to paddle in, dress for the weather including a pair of training shoes you don't mind getting muddy. We supply all equipment including good quality waterproofs. Also, bring a complete change of clothes.

"Brilliant kayak on the Thames! Boats were great and guides knew a lot of local info. Felt safe and there was enough to chop in the water to keep it exciting."
