Thames Rockets: Ultimate Speedboat Ride

With a range of packages available, you’ll take off from the London Eye Pier on an unforgettable 40 to 80-minute guided tour where you will see all of the worthy sights in the city.
Once you make your way under Tower Bridge, you’ll pick up speed and hear the 880 horsepower engines roar at 35mph. Who can say they blasted up the Thames? The tour guides have a background in stand-up and acting, so this will be no regular trip and will guarantee those much-needed laughs with incredible entertainment.

The Bletchley: Cryptic Cocktail Experiences
History and alcohol, what could possibly go wrong? Turn back time to World War II and visit Chelsea Funhouse to experience what life was like for Alan Turing and his team of cryptographers who broke the Nazi Enigma code. But with cocktails of course!
This code-breaking session will see you use Enigma machines and protocols to help mixologists create personalised drinks for you and your friends. The cipher machine will convert your results into cocktail ingredients and recipes!
Ready to crack the code? Learn more about The Bletchley war room here and make your booking from the 17th of May 2021.
Scenes in the Square
If you’ve always wanted to immerse yourself in the world of film, grab your Nimbus 3000 and take a trip to Leicester Square. As the home of many blockbuster premieres, Scenes in the Square pays homage to some of our very favourite on-screen characters with an audio tour hosted by Sky Cinema’s Alex Zane.
The bronze statues of Mary Poppins, Laurel and Hardy, and Harry Potter, all represent the importance of British film and the impact it has had on the world. You may even see some superheroes flying about, heard of Batman or Wonder Woman?
Pick up your character map from the flower beds facing Maison Du Mezze and Burger King and use your smartphone to scan the black disc to listen to the audio. Now you’re all set, we can’t wait to see some of your selfies!
P.S. Don’t forget to pack some marmalade sandwiches – we heard Paddington Bear is around too.
