 Worth sailing under. by sourbugger
The services that are now running, usually offer 33% discount to those with travelcard.
Of Most use to tourists is probably the 'Tate to Tate' sevice, that also stops at Waterloo. At 7.30 pounds for an adult return, it allows 3 return journeys in a day - allowing plenty of time to get your waterbourne photographs.
There are also a couple of useful services to Greenwich, for example from Westminster pier for about eight pounds.
The service from Savoy (off the Strand) for the short hop to St Katherines dock and onto Canary Wharf means you can sail under Tower Bridge for as little as Two pounds 70p

 Pleasure Boat on the Thames by easyoar
A popular route is to go by boat to Greenwich (where the Cutty Sark boat and Millennium Dome are) from just outside the Houses of Parliament, but there are many other stops on the route.
I can't remember exact prices, but I seem to remember prices in the region of £7 to £10. It isn't especially cheap, but several of the boats give you a commentary of what you are seeing as you go down the river, and there is a lot to see! Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat

You can get a river-trip, go to Greenvich or Tower... From Westminster tube-station.
Price - about 8 pounds, you'll get 30 discount with travel card
Collect your pass from The Original Tour (bus) on the day of travel.
Choose between the Thames Circular non-stop 50-minute cruise with a professional multi-lingual commentary in 7 languages or the Point-to-Point cruise, towards Greenwich or Waterloo, with the live "Captain's commentary" by the Catmaran crew. Point-to-point cruises are available from Embankment, Waterloo, Bankside, Tower and Greenwich Piers. A great way to explore London's riverside attractions in greater detail!. N.B. You must hand in your 'River pass' when making your first journey. Leave a Comment

 Borrowed from web by Mariajoy
It runs from 6am to 8pm Mon-Sat from Silvertown-Woolwich (and vice versa of course). During the week there are two services running but at weekends only one, so you queue for longer. As well as cars and bikes, this is also a foot passenger ferry. The crossing takes approx 5 mins.
I will add a link to the Greenwich Borough Council (who run the ferry) shortly, but at the moment it doesn't seem to be working properly! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Janet waiting at the Pier by Callavetta
If you purchase a ticket on the Big Bus, a one way ride comes with your ticket. We like to use at the very end of our time. Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat

 Boat ticket by filipdebont
Normal price was 5.20 pound, so with my travel card I payed 3.46 pound.
I think it is great to travel the city form one end to the other end above the ground, instead then going underground. There isn't much to see under the ground, if you are lucky you might encounter a lost mole . . . Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat
