Choose river bus or sightseeing outward
Pick a river bus for transport flexibility, or a sightseeing cruise when commentary matters. Compare the exact departure pier and whether your ticket includes a return.
Get off at Greenwich Pier
For the historic Greenwich waterfront, use Greenwich Pier. North Greenwich is the stop for The O2 and is not an alternative name for the same destination.
Choose one paid attraction as the anchor
The pass with Painted Hall entry can suit an interior-focused visit. It does not make every nearby museum or attraction included. Book only the admissions your party will have time to use.
Leave outdoor time flexible
Use waterfront, market or park time around your fixed booking and the weather. An unhurried meal is often more useful than adding another timed admission.
Check the journey home before leaving the pier
Look up the last useful return departure, not only the absolute last boat. Allow for reaching your hotel after the river leg and keep a land-transport alternative.
