London has plenty of festive spots, but one river cruise is offering a unique experience. The London Thames Christmas Lunch Party Cruise combines a traditional Christmas dinner with live music and loads of festive cheer. It’s the perfect daytime festive bash for friends, colleagues and family. Offering a more unique experience than just a pub lunch or an office party, this Christmas Lunch Cruise has limited dates available between now and December 20. From £70 per person (or less for groups of 10 or more), you could be sipping something bubbly, listening to live music and watching the city pass by before the work day even ends. Guests can enjoy a fabulously festive experience with a welcome glass of sparkling wine, followed by a traditional three-course lunch featuring all the Christmas favourites.

A reviewer, who hasn’t been on their Christmas lunch cruise but enjoyed a previous cruise, commented: “What a wonderful cruise journey on Thames. Food was brought fresh and hot to the table from mobile kitchen with great service. Entertainer had a great voice. The upper deck had a view of the London Bridge up close.” Meanwhile, another raved about their evening dinner experience, saying: “I went on the evening dinner cruise with the VIP package, and it was absolutely fantastic. The food. The Views. The lights. The history. The singer. Highly recommended.” A third echoed this sentiment, simply stating: “Our favourite way to see London! Great food and music too on the Dinner Cruise.”

One not-so-satisfied customer took to Tripadvisor, rating their City Cruises jaunt just three stars, sharing: “Disappointing compared to a dinner cruise that we did in Paris. While the meal was good and the staff was attentive, there was basically no focus on the city or landmarks.” For those who fancy a bit of mystery with their meal, how about a Murder Mystery Three Course Dinner Cruise on the River Thames? It’s priced at £196 per couple and available from Buyagift.com Alternatively, Virgin Experience Days offers an Evening Thames Cruise for Two with Bubbly and Canapes at £68, promising both romance and scenic views.
