Get on Board with Thames Clippers at Green Canary Day

Thames Clippers will be helping to raise awareness of Green Canary Day on Tuesday September 27 when one of its newest vessels, The Moon Clipper (as pictured) will be moored in West India Quay.

To mark the event Thames Clippers will be offering special autumn discounts on both season tickets for commuters and on rates for private charter. In addition visitors can also enter a competition, to take place on the hour every hour, with the chance to win a River Roamer pass for a family day out on the Thames.

Nigel Wright, Commercial Director of Thames Clippers says:“We are proud to be supporting Green Canary Day. Our service is environmentally friendly making use of London’s natural highway, the Thames, to transport our passengers through the heart of the capital.”
