About Tower Pier

Newly refurbished and extended as part of the Millennium Commission's Thames 2000 project, Tower Pier is located on the north side of the River Thames by Tower Bridge. World-famous landmarks nearby include the adjacent Tower of London, HMS Belfast, the City of London financial district and of course the iconic Tower Bridge itself.

Its instantly recognisable and historic central London surroundings make Tower Pier a hugely popular calling destination for many private boat charters, including party boats and wedding boats.

How can I hire a boat for Tower Pier?

Thames Luxury Charters both own and operate a unique fleet of exquisite private charter vessels in London, presenting a selection of venues for hire that are perfect for both personal and corporate events.

Our beautifully appointed boats Dixie QueenElizabethan and Edwardian offer a quiet sanctuary in the heart of the capital, away from the hustle and bustle of city life, and are able to call at Tower Pier. As an added attraction, Tower Bridge is raised to allow the Dixie Queen to pass through, providing guests on board with a truly unforgettable moment as you travel underneath.

I had such a memorable time on the Edwardian...

I had such a memorable time on the Edwardian. From the moment I first decided where I wanted to hold my 80th birthday luncheon, I had nothing but great help from the team who looked after me so well. Nothing was too much trouble for her. When on board, the crew and staff were all great - even when one of my guests was unwell, they managed to get a wheelchair for him to take him back to the coach. I could highly recommend you to friends. Thank you.

We booked the Elizabethan for a charity event and it was brilliant from start to finish. Great staff, well organised, beautiful venue and great food and drink on board. We raised a significant amount for our charity, which I attribute a great deal to the wonderful experience on board. We'd love to use you again!

Everything - from the initial planning to the actual day on the Erasmus - was amazing. Our wedding reception was a surprise for many and the cruise certainly made the day very different to standard weddings. All 90 guests have and keep telling us how magical the Thames trip was, so a big thank you from us to TLC and all the staff.

We booked the Edwardian for an office summer party with 40 guests. From initial enquiry onwards, our experience with Thames Luxury Charters and on board the Edwardian was exceptional. Planning and communication were faultless and the process could not have been easier. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their day, with fine food from the BBQ and entertainment provided by a jazz duo.
