What do you mean exactly?

 

A cruise along the River Thames?

 

if so, the following website may be of help:

Leaving from London downstream the Thames takes you to the North Sea quickly, which I assume you do not mean. For upstream, English Voyager has linked a website. Please note that overnight sailing along the Thames is not generally considered to be a "river cruise" in the European sense, like on the Rhine or the Seine. The ships by design and I believe due to logistical restrictions on the waterway are small, more the size of narrowboats so do not take many passengers. One such boat is this one: http://african-queen.co.uk/

 

 

Edit: here is the link to a map with the European waterways. It shows you that Britain has very few stretches of river that are classified as navigable in the modern sense, i.e. large barges or river cruise ships. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2516923
