Welcome in the New Year aboard "Jacob Marley"

A unique river cruiser that is ideal for experiencing the sounds and sights of London. 

Join us for our annual experience from Greenwich pier, (the most iconic place when it comes to celebrating New Year).

 Greenwich is the place where the recording of time originates and has been intrumental in all martime voyages since 1675. Paving the way for astronomy and navigation, Greenwich is where we find the birth place of Greenwich Mean Time and so we find it fitting that we should therefore start our journey here. 

This unique experience crosses the Meridian Line or "Zero" degrees longitude at least twice and gives you a opportuinity to view the Greenwich observatory standing proud on top of the hill of Greenwich Park. 

This intimate river cruise for over 18's only will then take you on a cruise through the heart of London. Allowing you to see all of the historic monuments and landmarks from the comfort of either an outside seat or at the bar.

"Passing under Tower Bridge, sailing beneath the London Eye and blowing the horn in front of Big Ben, there really is no better place to be."

 

Our resident saxophonist will set the mood during the evening and will allow you enjoy the hot buffet and drinks at the bar.

Just before midnight, our Captain will carefully position the boat amongst all the other packed vessels to watch the London fireworks. This year escape the crowds on the shore and experience it from the river on your own private veiwing deck with 40 other guests. 

 

Following the fireworks, your cruise will then return you to Greenwich Pier to disembark.
