Another good alternative to expensive sightseeing trips is to take the Thames Clipper transport ferry along the river. The boat route starts at Greenwich and ends at Westminster (Big Ben/London Eye). It passes beneath Tower Bridge and goes past the Shard and the Tower Of London, as well as the Victorian Thameside warehouses of East London.
