Great Views, Not for Those Afraid of Heights

5.00The London Eye has great views of the city and is a fun way to see London from above. However, it can be uncomfortable for people who are afraid of heights.
River Cruise First Adds Value to the London Eye Ride

5.00I enjoyed my spin on the London Eye much more after taking the River Cruise first. It was easier to identify key landmarks at 400+ feet when I had seen them first as described by the superb River Cruise guide.
Fun excursion - Both were quick

5.00The combination of the River cruise and London Eye tickets worked out well. We went in December so it was a bit cold on the river, but not too much that we needed to be inside. We enjoyed both the cruise and the London Eye - the tour guide on the cruise was informative and gave lots of background on the sites you pass. The Eye has some fantastic views, we went during a clear day and saw very far out. The ride took about 30 minutes and the pods were not crowded so you had plenty of room to move around and see views on all sides.
Amazing and coming soon with family

5.00We did this on our first morning in London. It was so easy to book ahead and the Thames Cruise and and then the London Eye experience were a fantastic way to get our bearings, see and learn about so many London landmarks. Our guide on the cruise was very informative and witty. It was easy to transfer from the cruise straight onto the London Eye. The Eye gives you another fabulous perspective of the city. All staff were very friendly and helpful. So glad we started with this wonderful experience.
AMAZING!!

5.00Me and my family were helped by two very kind girls named Niamh and Iqura to purchase our little goodies, they were super sweet and helpful through the whole thing. Mark was also super helpful with helping us get our tickets to actually go on the London eye so that was super helpful!

5.00The river trip was great. The views from the river compliment the views from land. The guide was very informative and the personel were very helpful getting us on and off the boat. The eye was awesome! What a view and slow enough to take great photos. Not scary for one who hates heights.
Nice to have flexibility...
