We went when it was dark. London is so beautiful at night. As we were disabled we were fast tracked so no standing in long queues. Staff were great. Will definitely visit again.

It's a very relaxing trip. I recommend going at night. The line seems to move very slowly, but it's actually the opposite. In less than 10 minutes, you're on the Ferris wheel, and there are lots of activities to do around it.

The London eye had amazing sights and not a long wait. If you have time to do this experience it's a must see on your list for London. As for the Thames cruise we ran out of time and couldn't use it so only get it if you know you will have time to use the combo pass to both attractions I tried to get a different time but policy is strict. The customer service was nice nonetheless when I asked them.

I highly recommend taking the fast line because it makes a considerable difference in time saved, I took it and in less than 10 minutes I was already inside, I also recommend going at 11am which is when the attraction starts operations. They have order in the lines, it is organized and certainly buy your photo packages adding the digital version, they give you many versions of backgrounds and videos, excellent experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Tower of London: it was a truly fascinating experience. In addition to the Crown Jewels, you can visit many other historic structures such as the White Tower and the surrounding walls, all rich in history and perfectly preserved, offering interactive experiences that are both entertaining and educational. The surrounding park is beautiful and well-maintained, making the visit even more enjoyable; with a little luck, you can even see squirrels. The presence of marching guards helps to create a truly regal and evocative atmosphere. The history is explained in a clear and engaging way: the signs along the route are very clear, making it easy to find your way around and always know what to see and where to go. I noticed great attention to cleanliness, organization, and safety, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. Buying tickets was also simple, fast, and intuitive: the website is clear and well-structured. In conclusion, a wonderful experience from every point of view, highly recommended.

The organization is excellent, the route is clear and engaging, and the Crown Jewels are simply spectacular: they shine much more in real life than in photos. The explanations are interesting even for those who are not history experts.

This was one of the best and most memorable visits to a transit museum we have had. The staff was very kind, friendly and helpful. Our kids loved all the trains and buses. They especially loved pretending to drive the train and all the other interactive experiences. Not to mention at the end where we could buy trains for them to take home. Great for all children and very safe. Beautiful place.
