A good value combo and a very good way to sightsee London's most iconic attractions and buildings beside the River Themes. Would recommend. Especially because the river cruise ticket is flexible; you can board at any time that day at any of the 4 piers listed. I don't know why it asks you to book a time slot for the cruise. I was very relieved when I realised this because I would have missed the cruise otherwise.

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.

From Shrek’s gang to stunning riverside views—this combo ticket gets you into Shrek’s Adventure and a Thames cruise while saving money and effort!

I like visit London eye. But, I miss the 3:30pm cruise afterwards onboard the next cruise the staff tell us may probably cannot boarding on next cruise if it's full. So, I have deducted the score not in 5star.

Paddington was better than Shrek. Shrek needs to improve the digital effects ( bus ect.)and the staff needs to speak more slowly so they can be understood more easily.

The London Eye is wonderful; the view from up high is unbeatable, and crossing the Thames by boat is a really enjoyable experience!!!
