The worst excursion possible
I would not recommend this company/any of its excursions. After arriving early I was told to return at a certain time which we did. We were then rushed and told rudely to get ready as other customers were waiting on us. We were not given instructions on where to store our items or where to get a key for the lockers etc. Following this, we were rushed yet again where we weren’t allowed a drink. We then had to get on a small hot tub with 4 other strangers. No safety briefing was given. I left a review on Airbnb where Skuna responded unprofessionally stating that we were rude which is completely incorrect. We were rude when the staff primarily chose this course of behavior. As a “business” that is primarily dealing with customers I would have hoped that they would been better trained in this area but they clearly were not as demonstrated by their lack of ability to take criticism and be accountable. To summarise, if you prefer to go on a cheap hot tub trip in Canary Wharf with poorly organised, rude staff whilst having smoke blown in your face throughout, please go ahead. Skuna, when responding to customer reviews, ensure your responses are accurate and not fabricated.
Response from the operator: We are very disappointed to see this review, particularly as it is a further account of the same visit that does not reflect what our team experienced on the day. To be completely clear your interactions with our staff were completely out of line and your behaviour was not only directed at our team, but also had an impact on the other guests sharing the experience with you. Importantly, this is not simply our interpretation of what happened. We received feedback from the other guests afterwards who told us that your behaviour had nearly spoiled their experience. They were also apologetic to our team about how we had been spoken to and the situation that had been created, by you and your guest. We are always prepared to listen to criticism and take genuine feedback seriously. What we will not do is accept an inaccurate account of an incident where our team were doing their job and other paying guests were affected by the behaviour of one group. Our previous response on Airbnb was based on the account provided by our team at the time, and from our CCTV footage around site. It was not fabricated, nor was it an attempt to avoid accountability. We stand by it. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your experience, but we will not accept responsibility for behaviour that was not ours and we will not allow our staff to be unfairly characterised as rude when the feedback we received from the other guests involved tells a very different story.

Super fun thing to do! We did the igloo boat tour, wouldn’t say it’s a tour as such though. Chocolate fondue was lovely. Our captain, Adam, was fab - just felt like an extra friend had joined us!

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour cost?
+
Prices start at $61 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 403 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour?
+
Around 141 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour?
+
Included: 75 minute tour in our hot tub boat. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; Towels, swimwear and robes (you can rent or bring your own); Private changing rooms; and Toilets. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour?
+
We are on the West India Quay docks, opposite the Museum of London Docklands Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Hot Tub Boat Tour in London - London's most unique tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
