Step inside the TLC fleet with our brand new 3D virtual reality tours
To mark the start of an exciting new decade, we are delighted to announce the launch of our brand new 3D tours.
The fully interactive experiences, which were captured in November 2019, allow you to undertake a virtual viewing of our fleet wherever you may be in the world. Each vessel's tour showcases a number of different layouts, including formal and informal dining options, theatre and boardroom layouts, and open spaces. It's a fantastic way to give you a taste of the luxurious event experience that awaits you on board.
The tours for the Dixie Queen, Elizabethan and Edwardian can be accessed at any time on their fleet page, or by clicking on the preview links below. To help you enjoy the best virtual experience, please scroll down for instructions on how to operate the tours.

How do I use the 3D tours?
It's simple to undertake your virtual viewing, whatever device you are using.
Desktop
To move around, either click on the white floor markers or in the direction you wish to "walk". To pan around the 360 degree view, click and hold the mouse button and drag it in the direction you wish to spin. You can also move and look around using the arrows on your keyboard.
Mobile
On mobile simply tap in the direction you wish to go and drag your finger around the screen to see the 360 degree view. If you have a virtual reality viewing device, you can also tap the VR icon in the bottom right of the screen for a fully immersive experience.
Viewing different layouts
All alternative layouts can be accessed on the highlight reel at the bottom of the screen. When you wish to return to the walkthrough tour, click on a highlight which contains the walking person icon.
Using hotspots
Each tour contains interactive hotspots which detail some of the key features of the vessel and event experience. To view these, hover your mouse over the floating white circles on desktop or tap them on mobile.
Measurement tool
This can be accessed by clicking or tapping the ruler icon above the highlight reel. Please note measurements made on the tool are to be used as a guide only. If you have any questions about vessel dimensions, please contact our Events Management Team.
How to book a viewing and see the vessels in person
As you can see from the tours, each of our beautiful venues are unique in their own right, providing truly stunning, high quality surroundings for virtually any private or corporate event. To help you further visualise your event on board, we always highly recommend viewing our vessels in person.
Your dedicated coordinator will guide you around the venue discussing how your event could unfold on the day. This often includes ideas on timings, entertainment, theming, food and drink and how we could accommodate your other bespoke requirements.
It's easy to book a viewing at a time that suits your schedule. To do so please contact our Events Management Team by phone on 0207 357 7751, via our contact page or submitting an event enquiry using the button below:
