There are - they have at least two DUKWs:

Fortunately for them they run from a slipway by the MI6 building and go about half a mile down river to the London Eye / Houses of Parliament (I say fortunately because they break down with some frequency - I've often sat in my office watching the tourists getting an extra little "adventure" as they board the Fire Brigade rescue boats - and the Fire Brigade river patrol are based right by Lambeth Bridge).
