Overview
Unlike most cruise ports, this terminal offers a rare opportunity to sail directly into central London—past historic bridges and along the Thames—before arriving at the foot of Tower Bridge. From here, you’re within easy walking distance of must-see sights like the Tower of London, the Shard, and St. Katharine Docks, where historic charm meets modern London energy.
Because of its size limitations, only smaller cruise ships can access this exclusive berth, making it a more intimate and memorable arrival. Once docked, the city is at your doorstep—explore nearby Borough Market, hop on a river cruise, or dive into London’s world-class museums and theaters, all easily reachable by Underground or on foot.
Staying in this central location means you can maximize your time in London, whether it’s your first visit or your tenth. Whether you’re sipping tea in a riverside café, shopping in Soho, or standing on the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, the Tower Bridge Cruise Terminal puts you in the perfect spot to explore it all.
This historic bridge is not only an engineering marvel but also a key part of London’s history. It includes the opportunity to explore the bridge's high-level walkways. Views include landmarks like St. Paul's Cathedral.
Tip: Don’t miss the chance to walk on the glass floor on the upper walkways for a unique perspective.
A short walk from here, you’ll find the Tower of London, one of the city's most famous historical sites. It’s where you’ll find the Beefeaters, the ceremonial guards of the Tower.
Tip: Book your tickets in advance to avoid long queues and make sure to join one.
After exploring the Tower of London, hop on a Thames river cruise for a relaxing and scenic ride. It’s a perfect way to see the city’s riverside attractions while taking a break from walking.
Tip: You can opt for a hop-on, hop-off Thames cruise to explore more areas at your own pace.
Head to Borough Market, located a short distance from here, to experience one of London’s oldest and most popular food markets. It’s a spot to grab lunch and sample local flavors or international delicacies.
Tip: Don't miss the fresh salt beef sandwiches, a classic London treat.
From Borough Market, it’s a short walk to London Bridge, another crossing over the Thames. You can visit Borough High Street for some local shopping or to explore quaint cafés.
Tip: If you have time, climb to the top of the Shard for unparalleled views of the city.
The area along the South Bank of the River Thames is a cultural hub. Make sure to visit the Tate Modern for world-renowned art exhibits, or take in a performance at Shakespeare’s Globe.
Tip: The Southbank Centre also hosts a variety of events, from music performances to art exhibitions, so check the schedule.
For the views in London, head to the Shard, the tallest building in the UK, located near London Bridge. From here, you’ll see landmarks, parks, and the sprawling cityscape of London.
Tip: The views are particularly spectacular, and you can catch a glimpse of the skyline bathed in golden light.
To the east, St. Katharine Docks is a marina surrounded. It is an area that contrasts with the bustling city, offering a great spot for a relaxing break by the water.
Tip: Stop by the Dickens Inn, a historic pub located at the docks.
If you’re interested in naval history, the HMS Belfast is a must-see. You can explore various decks, see exhibitions about naval history, and experience what it was like to live and work on the ship.
Tip: Make sure to check out the Gun Room and the Bridge, where the ship's officers once commanded.
Take a walk through St. James’s Park, one of London’s most beautiful green spaces. It’s located near Buckingham Palace, where you can enjoy a stroll, watch the resident pelicans, or take a seat.
Tip: If you have the time, head to Buckingham Palace to witness the iconic Changing of the Guard ceremony.
