I recently came for a friends birthday and wasn't quite sure what I was getting into but I was BLOWN AWAY! The production, the characters, and the storyline we're all incredible and there were surprises at every turn. The characters also did a great time manageing and redirecting a particularly rowdy child without affecting anyones experience; pure professionals! Will definitely be back with friends!

Great service; it works really well with the app. The Thames cruise was truly beautiful. In my personal opinion, the London Eye ride isn’t worth the ticket price—it didn’t leave a particularly strong impression on me. I went during the day. Maybe it would be better at sunset or at night.

It was awesome and very convenient. The cruise ticket was flexible, so i could go any time, the entry was in the same place, and finish the London eye and then go for cruise

The London Eye experience is fantastic. Seeing London’s most iconic sights from above is a great experience. The same goes for the river cruise, but if you have to choose just one, go for the London Eye—the other experience isn’t really worth it. We booked a cruise for 1:00 p.m. and had to wait over 30 minutes because it actually didn’t leave until 1:30 p.m.

I didn't have the QR codes for admission, but the staff handled all the necessary paperwork and resolved the issue in just fifteen minutes. Thank you.

Booking with Headout was fantastic; everything went great, and the tickets were cheaper. We took the boat tour on the Thames and rode the London Eye. We barely had to wait in line at the London Eye, since it moves very quickly. The boat ride was a really pleasant experience since we went on a sunny day! But I would have liked the option to buy a ticket for the full circuit, not just a one-way ticket.

    The guide on the first cruise was awesome. But I had to get off and get another ferry going the opposite way. This guide was bad. The ride is VERY short. And The Eye is nothing more than an enclosed Ferris wheel. However the views were spectacular. Just thought the experience was a little expensive for what you receive
