Cruise the Thames past Christ Church, then enjoy a three-course dinner at The Folly in Oxford, with Prosecco and a small-group setting.

“Our river boat guide, Manny, was knowledgeable and funny. The 3 course dinner at Folly was amazing. This cozy restaurant overlooks the river with an outdoor patio and friendly staff. We started with duck liver parfait which was rich and flavorful. For entrees we had the pork belly and beef sirloin perfectly paired with red wine. Both were tender and delicious. For dessert, sautéed apricots with vanilla ice cream was the perfect finish. Highly recommend this tour.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 174 reviews · 2 hours 45 minutes (approx.) · from $166

Dine on a six-course meal aboard a glass-roofed bus while London landmarks, bridges, and night lights pass by outside.

“The set up was great: great staff, ambiance, bus route and the food / drink selection. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining. The bus tour took us to the main spots in London, so we had the best vantage point to take great pictures. The glass roof top of the bus was brilliant for taking pictures - I was very surprised how good they turned out. The bus must have been very impressive from outside as well, as we noticed many tourists taking pictures of our bus. It was a great experience, and we'll do it again!”
