Not our best run - The first part of the ride was lovely - lasted about 20 minutes at normal speed. We got incredible views of the buildings that line the Thames. The next 25 were horrible - it was SO cold and SO fast. Please remember that this is only my opinion (shared by my teen)… the staff were very caring and let us off early at a different pier. The other guests seemed fine.

Avoid. Poor customer service. - Poor customer service. No compassion for a young child that had a panic attack resulting in our inability to take the trip. No desire to offer a credit, I didn't even want a refund. Company hides being terms and conditions rather than taking a pragmatic approach to a situation. Very disappointing.
