Cutty Sark Gruesome Stories, Greenwich Pier
Starting in the east of London, kick off this Halloween river journey with the legendary Cutty Sark. Board what was the fastest ship of its time to join musical storyteller Paul Rubinstein as he leads spine-tingling sea shanties and reveals the spooky tale of the Cutty Sark’s figure head, Nanny the Witch. This iconic London attraction is just a few steps from Greenwich Pier.

Halloween at the Tower of London, Tower Pier
After sailing westward, hop off at Tower Pier to join a Halloween themed tour of the Tower of London. It’s said the spirits of Roman soldiers and Medieval Queens still wander this iconic London site. Young people visiting the family friendly site this half-term are invited to pick up a trail when they arrive and keep track of the many ghosts and ghouls they spot on their visit.

The Clink Prison Museum, London Bridge City Pier
Just a short River Bus journey takes families across the Thames from the Tower of London to London Bridge City Pier and a short walk to the site of one of England’s oldest and most notorious jails, Clink Prison. This Halloween, families are invited to immerse themselves in hands-on experiences at Clink Prison Museum, and learn the hair raising stories of the unfortunate inmates who once languished in the infamous cells.

Shakespeare’s Tales, Bankside Pier
Sail on to Bankside Pier for Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre to revisit the witches, treachery, and haunting visions of Macbeth. This half-term, families can enjoy activities designed to introduce younger audiences to the Bard’s finest works. Shows, storytelling sessions, workshops, and family tours will be the perfect introduction to Shakespeare’s tales.

Halloween Pumpkin Carving, Cadogan Pier or Battersea Power Station Pier
No Halloween celebration is complete without creating spooky decorations with pumpkins. To round off the perfect Halloween expedition, head westward to Cadogan or Battersea Power Station Pier and visit Chelsea Physic Garden to carve your own charming, or frightful, Jack-o’-lantern. As well as carving, guests will learn about pumpkin plants, and explore the spooky garden shed to transform their creations into Halloween friends to take home.
