    "Very impressive size of the river Themes! You can see lots of boats and can even use Uber boat as a river taxi with your credit or Oyster card. Also I would advise you guys to take a boat trip on the river with a guide that won’t disappoint you. There are so many famous hidden gems on the river and along the bank side. Highly recommended!"
