What To Expect
Meet your guide at Embankment, where you'll step aboard your cruise down the River Thames. Play along as the guide encourages your family to imagine they are sailing for the high seas, like so many sailors before them. Listen to tales of the mutineers, pirates and smugglers that made their way to London down the Thames, and how they were punished for their crimes. Watch as the Tower of London comes into view on the banks; disembark and check out London Bridge and the Tower Bridge. Children can picture captured pirates being marched across London Bridge by a man bearing the symbol of power of the Admiralty, a silver oar. They'll be hard at work completing specially designed activity materials, ensuring they're engaged and learning. Be among the first to enter the gates at the Tower of London, a former prison and execution site for Royalty and criminals alike. See the famous Beefeaters and learn about their history, visit the Traitor's Gate and hear the legend of the tower's resident ravens. Get a comprehensive tour of the grounds, including the crown jewels, the palace, the towers and the ramparts. Your guide will be sure to keep the youngest listeners in mind, ensuring everyone is engaged in the site's rich history.
