Speedy Christmas presents for daring Dads or outings for courageous children. Meet Santa in style this year, when you book on the ‘Jingle Bell Blast’ experience with London RIB Voyages, the original Thames speedboat experience. No waiting in line to see him, only to be rushed in and rushed out – whizz down the river to him instead. This is a once in a life time experience for children to meet Santa, have a pre sailing photo with the man himself, before climbing aboard for this Christmas themed river RIB ride.
Santa’s helper will be on board as you fly the Thames, keeping everybody safe and storytelling passengers through his favourite places in merry London. Classic Christmas carols pump out for everybody to sing along as we jingle all the way to Canary Wharf and back.
A fully festive mixture of fast speed, fun style and fabulous storytelling. The perfect winter warmer for children young and old. Whether looking for a difficult to please family member or organising a work Christmas party or mates’ get together over the festive season, high-tailing it down the Thames will suit all.
