The view is magnificent. The coffee and croissant were excellent. I was with my 23-year-old granddaughter. We had a wonderful time trying to locate the buildings in the pictures displayed in the windows around the city. Thank you. Claire and Marie-Lee

I thought our tickets were for specific times but we turned up early and got straight in with no questions and no queues. Easy access with staff just scanning the QR codes on our tickets. Highly recommend Headout for ticket purchaes.

The visit was amazing, the ambience was so so good. Only that the rain did not let us see all the attractions really clear. But in all it was a beautiful experience.

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!

The view is truly breathtaking. It’s a shame that the outdoor terrace is closed; there didn’t seem to be any reason for it. Unfortunately, the restaurant I reserved, Lache, isn’t located upstairs—I didn’t realize that when I made the reservation.

Start your morning with an early Sky Garden entry, coffee and breakfast pastry, enjoy skyline views, and follow a digital audio guide.

Cruise the Thames at your pace, board at Westminster, London Eye, Tower, or Greenwich Pier, enjoy multilingual commentary, and keep kids engaged with activity sheets.

See London from above and from the river in one day, saving planning time while enjoying flexible schedules and two sightseeing experiences.

Level up for a Moët party with live music or a gourmet 2-course dinner before your Sky Garden visit for a VIP evening.

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.

I was really disappointed to find out that dinner wasn't at the top of the tower, especially since I'd invited someone! The music from the DJ at the top of the tower was way too loud, but luckily the view of London was amazing—it made up for the rest of the evening...
