The fact that I went with my family and, being all adults, every podcast, every reading, every pictured, generated conversations that enriched the visit. I really recommend the visit early so there IS time for the whole tour to be completed.

This was a great experience and the strawberries and stories were amazing! I took my 14 year old son and he loved it! You can o my change your ticket 24 hours prior which i think isn't very flexible specially when it's such a tourist attraction and things can change on the day. That's my only quarrell is that the booking should be able to move.

Everything was excellent. I bought the tickets a couple of weeks before coming to the London Eye. We arrived today, they scanned our QR code, and we got in without any problems.

We got to Battersea Power Station early and allowed in the lift which made our day as we had lots planned. The staff were very friendly and professional in there approach. I would definitely recommend putting this on to anyone's itinerary for a trip to London.

The entry is timed and well-organized, but lines can form outside for security, so dress for the weather. Skip paying extra for a guided audio tour add-on if it's offered on third-party sites. the bridge provides informative displays and digital options!

A wonderful trip. For a very attractive price, I received two wonderful attractions that, individually, would have cost me even more. I highly recommend it.
