There are several different companies offering river and canal services. Are you referring to the river bus by Uber Boats or something else? Uber Boats will definitely be running.

Thames Clippers/Uber Boat are the most frequent service on the Thames, and serve the most piers, they also have the longest operating day, from around 6am to 11pm (serving early and late commuters, as well as tourists)- https://www.thamesclippers.com/
They are part of the public transport of the city, so can be used with London Travelcards (the cheapest way) or on contactless or with an Oyster Card- https://www.thamesclippers.com/
However river fares are excluded from the daily and weekly caps on TfL services.

I think you confuse us by calling it "Water Taxi". It's a "Water Bus"

Hi OP!
You can always trust isn31c's advice. :-)
Just hopping on to add that the confusingly named "Uber Boat by Thames Clippers" is a magical way to see the city light up at night, and serves lots of highly touristic stops. I actually use it a lot. https://www.thamesclippers.com/plan-your-journey/route-map
It's not cheap - and it's not "hop on/hop off" in the classic sense of "pay one fare and get unlimited rides," but it's a really terrific service. Snacks and drinks on board, too!
