How to get to Thames piers
Piers are an easy walk from central landmarks, and well connected by Tube, train, and bus.
Με τρένο
For Westminster and Embankment piers, arrive at Charing Cross or Waterloo; for Tower Pier, use London Bridge or Fenchurch Street; for Greenwich, use Maze Hill or Cutty Sark DLR.
Με αυτοκίνητο
Driving in central London is discouraged. Parking is limited and the Congestion Charge applies; consider public transport to piers.
Με λεωφορείο
Frequent buses serve Westminster, Victoria, Trafalgar Square, and the Tower of London — then it’s a short walk to the river.
Με τα πόδια
Walk the riverside paths to reach piers: Westminster, Embankment, Bankside (near Tate Modern), Tower, and Greenwich are all signposted.
Why cruise the Thames
Iconic bridges, royal palaces, modern skyscrapers, and lively riversides — all in one smooth ride.
