Fast Travel to London Boat Show

01 Dec 2004

With the London Boat Show returning to the ExCel Exhibition Centre on 6-16 January, visitors wishing to get into a maritime mood en-route can travel to the event by high speed catamaran and shuttle coach from six central London piers. The ExCel Express , operated by Thames Clippers, will be boarding passengers at Waterloo, Savoy, Blackfriars, Bankside, London Bridge and St Katharine's Dock Piers.

Thames Clippers high speed catamaran Erica will shuttle passengers to the London Boat Show in Docklands next month.

ExCel CEO Jamie Buchan said, 'We are pleased to be working in partnership with Thames Clippers to offer the successful Excel Express again this year to London Boat Show visitors. It is a fantastic way to use our dockside location to offer visitors a unique and scenic way to travel to ExCel.'

Tickets for the ExCel Express will be priced at £6 for a single journey and £10 return, with a 33% discount available to anyone who has gotten to one of the six piers using a Travel Card.
