City Cruises plc is the leading operator of passenger services on the River Thames, carrying in excess of 1million people annually on its extensive sightseeing, entertainment and charter services.
 The four directors have many years' experience on the river.
Gary and Rita Beckwith, Chairman and Managing Director respectively, acquired their first sightseeing vessel, The King, in 1985, while Paul Wilson, Fleet Operations Director and Waterman to HM The Queen, is the fourth generation of his family to work on the Thames.
 David Steele, Sales & Marketing Director, has been connected with the river for virtually all his working life. He is seen here (on the left) receiving an award from the Group Travel Organisers Association in 2006 in recognition of his "outstanding contribution to group travel".
The key to the company's development has been consolidation of ownership in a traditionally fragmented industry. On the river's major sightseeing route between Westminster and the Tower, for example, every boat was owned independently until 1992-94, when we acquired the interests of all the other operators which were then brought together under the City Cruises umbrella. This enabled us to undertake extensive marketing and promotion which, in turn, has generated investment funds for the development and building of our new vessels.
