    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.

    Disappointed! We chose the wrong day, it rained heavily and continously that day and we were soaked and couldn't enjoy much. Also some of the animals couldn't be seen as they hid under shelter. Be careful around noon as the animals could be taking their nap. Absolutely loved the Lion kingdom, they recreated mini Gujarat (state in India), that made our day. Butterfly paradise wasn't too good, there were very few butterflies. The giant caterpillars stole the thunder. Penguin show was great. Toilet is near the entrance and one near the tiny giants habitat. Please carry your umbrella or rain/wind sheater, we paid £18 just for the disposable ponchos (4 ponchos). Also wear comfortable shoes and carry light snacks and water bottle the zoo is huge.
