Held a Hen party on the viscount and it was the best night ever, thanks so much to Craig and the team for making it so easy. We were able to book any pier along the thames which was really convenient. The DJ was amazing and even hosted Karaoke for us. 10/10 would book again, great value and the bride absolutely loved it!

We had our company dinner party and awards on board the Avontuur this weekend and it was a huge success. This is totally down to Craig and the team at Viscount Cruises who were on hand, dedicated and eager to help.
I was a pretty needy and difficult client but Craig did everything he could and more to ensure that everything went to plan, including helping put up bags and bags of decorations. Thank you so much.

I hired the London Rose for my sister's Hen Party and it was absolutely brilliant. I couldn't believe that it was such a reasonable price for such a large vessel - especially in central London on a Saturday night! Craig was really accommodating with access for me to measure up beforehand and decorate on the day. He also answered any questions I had really promptly over email. We had the BBQ food on the night which was brilliant - it was high quality food and there was loads of it. The staff on the night were just amazing - a big thank you to Jack and the rest of the crew - caterers, bar staff and

We had a fabulous experience with Viscount Cruises when we booked our private cruise. They went out of their way to accommodate us, were warm and friendly throughout the whole process and made our experience on the Thames a fabulously enjoyable one. The ship itself had great facilities, plenty of room and comfortable seating as well as a fully stocked bar. Whilst on the river the skipper George took us wherever we wanted to go, whilst being extremely helpful and insightful. I would gladly recommend their services to anyone looking for a bespoke experience on the river Thames. Thanks again to Viscount

We had a fabulous tour on the London Rose last week and everyone in the group of over 70 people enjoyed the experience. The boat was cleaned for our arrival, prompt in departing and the staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The catering was also excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend Viscount Cruises.

I just wanted to say thank you to you and the rest of the team on Avontuur. We had a wonderful time last night. The whole team made us feel so welcome. It was also amazing to be on the boat beforehand, so that we could see everyone waiting on the dock.
Everyone had such a great time. The food was excellent - really pleased we went for the BBQ. We got so many compliments from friends and family on the whole evening - it was so amazing seeing London at night!
