Platinum Dinner
The crème de la crème of our cruise experiences: let us seat you at your table on the river in preparation for an evening that’ll take your breath away. Enjoy an aperitif as you arrive. As we depart from the dock, soak up the sounds of our talented live musicians and take in the unmatched scenery as we serve up dishes from our seasonal five-course à la carte menu complemented by free-flowing selected wines.
As day turns to night, we journey further down the river, floating past some of London's most famous and historical landmarks. At night, you can take in illuminated skylines, divine river lights and ever-changing scenes of a city from a beautifully unique perspective.
Please note that we do not offer child packages on our dinner cruises.
