I loved absolutely everything! It was one of those experiences you keep in your heart forever. If I had to choose what I liked best, it was that dual perspective of London: first from above and then from the water, as if the city were telling me two different but equally fascinating stories. On the London Eye, the highlight was reaching the top just as the sun began to bathe everything in golden light. Seeing Parliament, Big Ben, and the river winding its way between bridges from inside that glass capsule was simply breathtaking. I stood in silence, pressed against the glass, feeling as though all of London lay at my feet. That calm in the air, that controlled sense of vertigo, that 360° panoramic view… it was pure magic. But the cruise down the Thames was the other side of the coin—and perhaps what moved me the most. Passing under Tower Bridge while feeling the murmur of the water, seeing the reflections of the lights dancing on the current, and hearing the sounds of the city from river level connected me to the true heartbeat of London. It was much more intimate, more alive. The guide told stories as the sunset took over the sky and the historic buildings paraded by on both sides as if in a dream.

My kids thoroughly enjoyed and were mesmerised. It was my baby's first birthday visit and she was giggling watching the fishes. You need 2 hours and some snacks to keep the fun going.

London eye was amazing. Cruise not so much. Last time cruise was empty we sat at the top and was very fun 30 to 40 minutes coming back to London eye drop of. This time cruise was already full top floor which is the main attraction when we boarded. And only lasted 15 minute when i asked why it stopped to tower bridge is it not going back to london eye i was told this boat does not go back you will have to change boat.

We had a great time, the London on there wasn't a que even thought it was half term was expecting it to be busy, great experience , River cruise, was great only issue is we got left in a completely different area, and the only way we could get back was to pay again! Even though we had paid for the experience! Which paying for return should have been included in our ticket!

Could not down load the scan on my phone so only had the paper work with reference and payment on it which was not any good had to go to customer service at the London eye for help. It was my husband's 70th birthday so not a good start. The actual London eye and boat trip was good.
