Perfect organization: a comfortable bus; we departed from Victoria Station, which is very central and easy to reach. The staff was extremely attentive and helpful. The line to get in moved quickly, and the timing was convenient. The studios are wonderful for H.P. fans, definitely exceeding expectations: sets, costumes, masks, and explanations, special effects, and a thousand other things. The stamp hunt and riddles were fun. The lunch service was very convenient. The return trip was just as well-organized as the outbound one. Highly recommended experience, suitable for all ages.

It was an amazing experience except for the fact that the uber boat was a bit too slow. The cable car was a thrilling moment for us to see london aerially. Made us appreciate the landmarks better. The uber boat was calming and the view was simply stunning.

Thanks to the fast-track ticketing, we didn't have to wait in line. Tickets were very easy to purchase, and everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our visit to the London Eye. The view of London from up there is unique.

We took the tour with Nathan. He shared lots of interesting facts and jokes, and knew exactly where to stand to get the best view of the changing of the guard. We stood at three different spots, and since we were always right up front, we had a perfect view. (There was a lot of pollen from the trees.)

It was such an exciting experience! I decided to go see the show just two hours beforehand, and buying the ticket online was easy. The musical *Hercules* was lively and colorful, and the time just flew by. The actors, dancers, and singers were truly talented, and the five muses were absolutely stunning! I would recommend it to both adults and children.
