THE longest passenger ship to sail the Thames stopped in the borough for two days.
The Seven Seas Voyager, which is 207m long and 29m wide, moored on the Thames at Greenwich while passengers spent some time checking out the area.
It left Copenhagen on August 26 on a cruise around the coastline of Britain and Ireland.
The ship left Greenwich on September 6 to continue the cruise to France and Spain.
It has the capacity to carry 700 passengers, has a crew of around 450 and comes complete with nine passenger decks.
Port of London Authority harbourmaster for central London Captain Christopher Mendoza said: "We are delighted to welcome this fine ship to London. This is the longest passenger cruise ship we have handled into central London.
"The visit of the Seven Seas Voyager this far up the Thames demonstrates the Port of London is firmly on the map for visiting cruise ships."
