Boat Tours

Join the City of London and Westminster Guides as they take you on a journey under the rivets of all nine Illuminated River bridges.

The boat tours have been organised in partnership with Uber Boat by Thames Clippers to provide low cost access to the Thames and to the Illuminated River artwork, which is best experienced from the river itself. 

Since 2019, these sell-out boat tours have taken passengers on a guided cruise beneath the Illuminated River bridges. At 3.2miles, they form the world's longest public art commission.

Boat tours will return in Autumn 2026. Be among the first to know when tickets go on sale, scroll down to sign up for the Illuminated River newsletter or follow us on social media.
