Description
Begin your adventure by boarding a Thames River Bus at an eligible pier for a one-way journey toward Greenwich. Your journey is subject to the current timetable, pier conditions, vessel capacity, and ticket validity.
If the booked river bus journey cannot be completed because of timetable changes, pier conditions, or insufficient vessel capacity, you are guaranteed a full refund.
After arriving at Greenwich Pier, open the family discovery trail provided with your booking. The self-guided trail follows a defined route and takes approximately one hour to complete at a family-friendly pace.
Using observation tasks rather than a live guide, children can discover river features, historic buildings, bridges, boats, public art, and other local landmarks.
The trail begins at Greenwich Pier and ends at a public location. Along the way, participants can enjoy activities such as:
- Identifying different types of river vessels.
- Comparing modern and historic riverside buildings.
- Finding maritime symbols and public artwork.
- Observing the relationship between the river, docks, and the surrounding city.
- Answering age-appropriate questions about Greenwich.
The route uses publicly accessible locations and does not require children to enter roads, restricted areas, or private property. Entry to paid attractions is not included unless explicitly stated.

- A full refund is guaranteed if timetable changes, pier conditions, or vessel capacity prevent the booked river bus journey.
