Review of PARTY! PARTY! Boat party / Summer closing party
I had high expectations based on a previous boat party experience (not with Skiddle), but unfortunately, this time was awful. Massive boarding delays; we were scheduled to board at 8:30 PM we decided at 9:10 that we were going to leave the experience as no boarding was happening.
The boat that finally arrived was so small with no up top deck just a small section at the back, we ended up sharing the space with a London Fashion Week event. We hadn't anticipated this, and it wasn't what we paid for. This unexpected turn of events significantly impacted our enjoyment of the night so we decided to leave then be stuck on a boat not knowing when we were able to get back off.
I'm now out of pocket by over £80, and the experience fell far short of what I had hoped for.

Review of New Years Eve Boat party
The queuing system was okay untill you get to the gate and then it was just awful, you didn't know where to go. We waited and hour just to get to the gate. Then we were not given our wrist band for the after party. Then we had to wait again to actually be able to board the boat. The music was okay, the female DJ was better than the male. We were under the impression the boat was 2 floors and a full outdoor top but the outdoor top was tiny. Imagine 200 people trying to squeeze on there for the fire works. The toilets were disgusting and smelt horrible. The male toilets only had one working. We were told the boat has both heating and air con but yet it was really cold. The drinks were apparently pub prices, well a double vodka and c**e was £12. A woman next to me bought a bottle of cider it was £7! I got cheaper drinks in London. This event is advertised to be great but it really wasn't. Would not recommend! We were basically lied to and even a security guard said the companies like to big up the boats. It was like Instagram Vs reality and the reality was rubbish!

Review of New Years Eve Boat party
Was supposed to leave on the boat at 20:45. We didn't get on the boat until 21:30 stood in the freezing cold. No special surprises on the boat which was in the description. And the after party was a 45 min drive/tube away which was not possible to get to on new year. Totally not worth the £140 spent on the ticket.

Review of New Years Eve Boat party
When we arrived it appeared to be disorganised chaos .... there were two lines for the two boats leaving the pier with no way to work out where you should be until you got to the front. There were also people queing from two different sides, it would have been better to block one off and just have one queue. The security/staff checking tickets all stood in one place at the head of the queue with no obvious person in charge. It would have been better to have someone going along the queue checking tickets. We queued for ages and then had to queue even longer to get on the boat which arrived and departed later than advertised.
Once on the boat we had a blast! The music on both floors was brilliant, drinks were reasonable and the atmosphere was amazing. The cruise route along the Thames was fabulous, we took in some lovely sights. A great view of the fireworks. The only thing I would say is the loos were a bit minging especially by the end of the night and with only 2 available there was a bit of a wait at times.
If, like me, you can manage to get hold of Super Early Bird tickets (£45) I would definitely recommend it .... if I'd paid full whack (upwards of £180 a ticket) I probably would have felt rather differently about my evening.

Review of Party N Vibe Boat Party
Was only 15-20 people came, an event manager said there would be 100. Also boat was supposed to depart at 1pm but left at 2pm. Dancers were good but was made uncomfortable by some staff. Also no food? I know food wasnâ??t on the list but if we were told to meet at 12 there shouldâ??ve been time for us to at least have the option of food if we were there from 12-5.
