August 2024Our recent awards event on the Thames Luxury Charter was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we stepped aboard, it was clear that this would be an afternoon to remember. The crew onboard where Fab, big shout out to Harvey who kept everything ticking over on the day. The bar staff where attentive and kept everyone topped up! The Band where amazing !! All in all a super day all though extremely hot. Plamena and Mark did an amazing job of organizing and giving great suggestions to ensure our event was the best. Would highly recommend!

August 2024I hosted an 80th birthday party for my father on “The Edwardian” this summer and I must say I could not be more pleased! The team were excellent, friendly and very professional, and the boat was exquisite. Everything went very smoothly and the food and drinks were delicious. I would highly recommend this company!

August 2024we were very happy to engage with Thames Luxury Charters for our corporate event. "The Edwardian" was just a magnificent ship. The service provided, the quality of the food, the friendliness of the staff was just great. We'll definitely consider Thames Luxury Charters for upcoming events.

July 2024We held our department summer party on the Edwardian, it was a great evening of cruising down the Thames with a saxophonist playing in the background and a lovely BBQ buffet as well as non stop drinks! The crew/catering were great at making sure we had everything we needed and drinks were topped up very regularly whilst on the top deck by the crew. Gabriela the function manager was very helpful with letting guests who arrived early on board and making sure everything was taken care of! Thanks to Mark for his help in arranging and booking it all in as well.

September 2024World Wings International Dinner Cruise 22nd Sept. 312 guests. The planning went well and food tasting a great help in choosing the menu. The reviewer was unable to attend herself, but our co-organiser, Bruce, writes: “TLC totally tailored the event based on their knowledge we were an “older crowd”. The boarding process was very efficient…The crew was charming and friendly and knew that we were former flight attendants. The lady who welcomed us made a funny reference to that fact. They all had a great sense of humor….…The food was delicious…… The disc jockey played EXACTLY the kind of music our group loves, it was impossible to stay seated with that kind of music playing! Perfect for our group! All in all, a great success and all our guests loved the spectacular sight of Tower Bridge lifting as we passed through.”
