    Excellent Tower of London site! Cruise on the Thames a little short (we'd have liked to get closer to London Bridge and Parliament)! Time- and data-saving tip: download the audio guide before the cruise 🚢

    I'm very appreciative of both these tours. I so wanted to see them. However, after 3 flight delays I knew I'd miss them. But the hotel suggested for me to just go ahead. They gave no fuss about letting me in at a different time slot. Now I wouldn't expect that on most tours but these were 2 that could be flexible. These were definitely 2 highlights of my trip.

    Very well organised, smooth experience on the Eye and wonderful views of the sights of London. Not so good with the river cruise as we only had a 20 minute cruise! We saw some great sites, but only went from the Eye around to the Tower and then had to disembark or pay to go to Greenwich. We felt that we didn't have the time that we were paying for. This spoiled a 70th birthday treat slightly.

    We were able to book the two experiences on different days. We used the Thames walk half an hour after we bought the tickets. The next day the londoy eye without any problem.
