What is your idea of a romantic getaway? Is it a pampering cruise where formally dressed staff refill your glass of finest wine, while you look at the famous sites of a city and a live jazz band brings the evening to life? Then this is going to be your ideal romantic trip to the city of love, romance and culture, which you have been waiting for.

London is the city where everything happens. From live music to theatre performances, from five-course dinners to fairytale weddings, you can find everything you are hoping for in London if you know where to look.

How to get around London?

The best way to get around the city is by tube. Many travellers and tourists prefer the red double-decker buses due to the unobstructed view they offer. There are hundreds of tour buses that start from different stops every morning. Just hop on one and enjoy the most famous sights with live commentary.

The Thames is an important part of London

If you have not made plans to explore London’s river ways and canal ways, you are going to miss a lot. London’s canal boat trips will give you a tour of the city and its view from the main waterways of the city. This is not an everyday London life. It is something special, for every romantic who would like to look at the marvels of the cityscape from a comfy boat.

Book lunch on a cruise on the Thames

What can be better than combining a boat ride and lunch? That is right, nothing. Most of the boats that ferry the waters for tourists have the facility of lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. However, you need to book in advance, since tourists and travellers love dining on the most famous Thames lunch cruise.

Try the Harmony or Symphony for a luxurious experience. They take pride in cooking fresh catch using only natural, locally sourced resources. You can liven up your lunch on river Thames with Bateaux London. Fresh game, poached salmon and gourmet dessert will immortalise the evening in your memory. Escape the city noise, sail on the calm waters of Thames and drown your senses with delectable fresh food and romantic live jazz.

Plan your evening

Almost all cruises follow up lunch with afternoon tea. If you want to be a part of the real English boat high tea experience, please try to book in advance. There are some places right beside the river that also serve freshly baked scones, homemade biscuits and fresh bread with a variety of teas. If you are a caffeine lover, you can pick from one of the many bistros that line the Thames for a great cup of coffee and a breathtaking view of the river.

That is how you can spend a day in the city and yet stay away from the hustle bustle London is famous for.
