We need to get to the O2 Arena for Mamma Mia the Party and are considering taking the Thames Clipper from Westminster to get there – essentially trying to combine our need to get to the O2 with a chance to see London from the Thames.

It obviously won’t compare to the tourist cruises with commentary but what is the experience like on the Thames Clipper? Is it a heavily congested form of transport where we will be packed in like sardines and won’t be able to see much or is this a brilliant idea?
