Join a fun-filled search for Santa Claus along the River Thames

Christmas is fast approaching and Santa's gone AWOL. Rumour has it, the man in red can be found aboard Uber Boat by Thames Clippers — AKA London's River Bus — on Saturday 11 December and Saturday 18 December. Can your little ones help his elves track him down?

Over the next two Saturdays, your family has the chance to meet Santa when you ride the River Bus with any valid ticket type — at no additional cost. Once you've found him, you'll get a sweet treat and a selfie (remember to use the hashtag #SailingSanta if sharing on social media!) Special Sailing Santa services start at North Greenwich Pier and Battersea Power Station Pier —appropriately close to the capital's most iconic chimneys — on 11 December, and at Embankment Pier and Greenwich Pier on 18 December, but Santa will also be making surprise appearances on other services throughout both days.

Click the blue button to see when you can catch him, or to book your Uber Boat by Thames Clippers tickets (you can also pay by contactless, Oyster Card, or app on the day). Pro tip: you can maximise your opportunities for festive fun by opting for a Family River Roamer ticket. With one of these beauties, kids go free and the whole family gets unlimited, all-day travel. Happy Santa-tracking!
