Travel to River Thames

The longest river in England and second-longest in the UK, the River Thames is a staple of London. Many of the cities most famous landmarks either sit on it, such as the Tower of London, or cross over it. The famous and immediately identifiable Tower Bridge crosses the Thames. In 2012, a cable car known as the Emirates Air Line was opened, allowing for a one-of-a-kind river-crossing experience. It takes passengers from the Greenwich Peninsula to the Royal Docks.
