Skip the line at Hard Rock Cafe Piccadilly Circus for a set Acoustic or Electric lunch or dinner, with priority seating and music-memorable walls.
“I’ve always wanted to go to Hard Rock Cafe because of its environment and this experience didn’t disappoint. The staff were really friendly, really nice environment and more food than I had expected. Good food! I’d recommend this.”
Eat a 6-course gourmet dinner on a luxury coach as London landmarks roll past, with optional wine pairing, onboard WiFi, and top-deck views.

Live jazz and a 3-course dinner on the Thames, sailing past Big Ben and Tower Bridge from Westminster Pier with included bubbly.
“Lovely experience, good service. Slight mix-up with my booking as I'd added an extra person after making my original booking who, had they attended (they didn't in the end, luckily) would've had to sit separately from the rest of the party...”
Thames dinner cruise with an award-winning Elvis tribute, three courses, and dancing past London landmarks toward Tower Bridge.
“Great night drinks expensive but apart from that really good night out”
A 2.5-hour York party cruise with welcome fizz, a two-course buffet, DJ music, and entry to Manahatta after, all for $64.
“The dj was great everyone was up dancing and the cruise itself was really lovely! It was such a fun girls night we loved every minute! Would definitely recommend! But the food definitely needs improving!”
London Christmas Eve lights, a 3-course Covent Garden dinner with Prosecco, then Midnight Mass at St Martin-in-the-Fields.
“Trip was good, guide funny. Had to wait for dinner seating then not enough time to finish meal before church service. Service started at 11 but we were told buses would leave at 1:00. Service finished by 12:10. Buses left before time and then our guide got off before all guests were returned to hotels. Overall good experience.”
Solve a River Thames murder mystery with a 3-course dinner cruise from Tower Pier, passing Tower Bridge and Parliament, with a welcome drink.
“Very very poor performance,....not understandable and bad acting. Rush rush through a bad diner wirh raw vegetables... Everything was overprized you better spend the money on other activities....”
A heated Thames dinner cruise on New Year’s Eve with champagne, a 4-course meal, live music, and fireworks views from near Big Ben.
“La vue pour le feu d’artifice se fait derrière un pont et pas de face La soirée n’était pas festive c’est dommage pour le prix”
A 4-hour Thames Christmas dinner cruise from Tower Pier with a festive 3-course meal, wine, skyline views, and DJ dance music.
“Het begin was goed. mooie plaats en keurig aangekleed. voorgerecht was prima. Hoofdgerecht was echt bedroevend, ondefinieerbaar maar bovenal koud! Toetje was prima. Geen enkele uitleg over eten of programma. Na het toetje zelf op dek gaan kijken en bij terugkomst koffie gevraagd waar vreemd op gereageerd werd. kreeg de koffie in een kartonnen bekerje. Je zou verwachten dat dit aan tafel geserveerd zou worden. DJ en dansen? er was muziek en er was een groepje turkse damens die de muziek claimde en dus een uurtje turkse disco. Ik had bij kerstmuziek iets anders in mijn gedachte. Personeel was niet zichtbaar en vooral met zichzelf in gesprek. Het zal wel…”
