The London & Thames Boat Company is a family-owned business with decades of experience delivering exceptional events on the River Thames.

The Golden Salamander is a versatile and elegant boat, accommodating up to 150 guests and easily tailored to suit any occasion.

Spanning two beautifully designed decks, she offers flexible event layouts. The lower deck seats up to 60 guests for formal dining and can be partitioned for more intimate gatherings. Prefer something more relaxed? Buffet-style dining is available for up to 140 guests. The upper deck provides the perfect space for dancing and entertainment, from DJ nights to casino evenings and everything in-between.

Two outdoor decks allow guests to enjoy BBQs, drinks, and uninterrupted views of London’s iconic skyline while cruising the Thames.

Ideal for private parties, corporate events, conferences, meetings, river transfers, and bespoke celebrations, The Golden Salamander adapts seamlessly to your vision.

At the heart of the vessel is the stylish mezzanine boarding deck, featuring a fully stocked bar that serves both levels. With direct access to the rear deck and discreetly positioned facilities, the layout ensures comfort and easy flow throughout your event.

Fully centrally heated and offering panoramic river views, The Golden Salamander provides a comfortable and memorable experience all year round.

Operating from central London, she serves all major central piers, as well as Putney, Chiswick, and Richmond — with the flexibility to cruise further upriver to Hampton Court and Walton-on-Thames.
