A speed limit has now been introduced to the River Thames from Wandsworth to Cherry Garden Pier, opposite Wapping. This means that there is a speed limit between the bridges all the way to Tower Bridge.
As we operate from St. Katherine’s pier, next to Tower Bridge, we are the only speedboat company on the river that this does not affect. If you leave from Westminster or Embankment, forty of the fifty minutes on the trip is at 12 knots or less. Only from Wapping to Limehouse can these boats get on the plane.
Leaving from St. Katherine’s Pier, we are on the plane and going straight after the guide has introduced the trip.
I think it is fair to say that Flying Fish Tours are the only real speedboat company on the river Thames now.
Combined with operating from a quiet and exclusive pier next to the Tower of London, using the only jet boat on the river and the best prices on the river, Flying Fish Tours have to be the only choice for a speedboat ride on the river.
