Terrible Thames is a new Horrible Histories tourist attraction that sails throughout the year from Tower Bridge Quay. In 2021, over sixty thousand people enjoyed the tour during the Summer Holidays and it was Highly Commended by the London Tourism Awards.
Terrible Thames takes its passengers on a horrible history tour of the river and there’s no better way to learn about the incredible history of the nation's capital. The fantastic journey incorporates immersive theatre to surprise and shock in equal measure, as it delivers its unique take on London, thrilling both children and adults alike.
Terrible Thames is created and produced by Birmingham Stage Company and Woods Silver Fleet. Since its foundation in 1992, the Birmingham Stage Company has become one of the world’s leading producers of theatre for children and their families. The company launched the world premiere of Horrible Histories Live on Stage in 2005 and has since produced eighteen Horrible Histories shows including its record-breaking West End series Barmy Britain. Their shows tour the length and breadth of the UK, including Hampton Court Palace, Kensington Palace, Tower of London, Hillsborough Castle, Warwick Castle and tour internationally to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, Bahrain, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and Australia, including the Sydney Opera House.
The Woods family have been Thames Watermen since 1866. They launched into the 20th Century with sightseeing tours from the Tower of London. In the decades since, Woods’ Silver Fleet have become highly sought after London ‘hideaways’ with yacht interiors, finishes and hospitality. The Silver Sturgeon, Silver Barracuda and Silver Darling have been privately chartered for film stars, politicians and British Royalty for decades. The Terrible Thames Tour takes place on their newly refurbished luxury sightseeing cruiser, Silver Sockeye.
