Worth It - Never knew there was such beauty to be found in Greenwich! The Painted Hall and surrounding estate was stunning, beautiful architecture and murals. We received a tour and our guide was very passionate and knowledgeable, talking us through the history of the grounds and its famous inhabitants. The Uber boat was a nice opportunity to relax and travel in comfort without the hustle and bustle and heat of the underground, but the views weren't quite as expected, windows could perhaps do with a clean. Nevertheless it made for an enjoyable day out. We spent the morning in Greenwich then took the boat to Embankment for dinner in Central London. Would recommend this tour.

So much more interesting (and faster) than any other way to travel - It is the best way to travel across much of London, especially from West to East - fast, efficient and really fascinating. You can either just read or work throughout the journey or watch our wonderful city float past. It is the best way to get a thorough backdrop of British history and great fun to boot - plus, London keeps changing and evolving so, if you last did this trip five years ago, you will almost certainly find something new and amazing to see... without the traffic jams and road closures.

Pointless and frustrating - It was a frustrating experience. To be honest, from a product or service perspective, it is not a sight seeing attraction because it doesn't have big windows. It is also not a transportation as it takes 10x more time than any other method, walking included. Pointless attraction. There's also a hour long waiting line...
