Tower Bridge Upper Mooring Shore Excursions
The Tower Bridge Upper Mooring is a highly exclusive "port" in central London, uniquely allowing smaller luxury cruise ships to dock alongside HMS Belfast, directly at the foot of Tower Bridge. Its primary allure is the iconic experience of the bridge lifting for the vessel, placing passengers instantly amidst the city's historical heart. While offering unparalleled access to landmarks, the facilities are minimal, relying on river boat transfers to Tower Pier for disembarkation and security. Strict size limitations and tidal complexities mean only select, agile ships can navigate this unique waterway, making a call at Tower Bridge a coveted and logistically intricate highlight of any itinerary.
We offer comfortable and convenient private, guided shore excursions from Greenwich Ship Tier in classic London Black Cabs.
