Did you know
It's a real public transport service, not a tourist boat, TfL-integrated and used daily by commuters, but the River Roamer day ticket turns the same boats into unlimited hop-on-hop-off sightseeing for the day.
Local tip
Sit outside on the open deck if the weather allows, that's where the views of Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf are best. The River Roamer pass is the better value option over a single point-to-point ticket if you're planning to get on and off more than once.
