The attraction is inspired by the classic Paddington Bear books created by author Michael Bond, which first introduced the character to readers in 1958.

I recently came for a friends birthday and wasn't quite sure what I was getting into but I was BLOWN AWAY! The production, the characters, and the storyline we're all incredible and there were surprises at every turn. The characters also did a great time manageing and redirecting a particularly rowdy child without affecting anyones experience; pure professionals! Will definitely be back with friends!

The Express Pass really comes in handy depending on the time of day. We went through the regular line for Sea-Live. The London Eye gets really crowded around noon, so the fast track was perfect. Plus, they’re right next to each other.

Everything was magical- from the initial search for Paddington's suitcase at the station to Mrs Brown welcoming us with bunting, my grandson was bouncing with excitement. The suport staff were completely immersed in their roles and made every interaction unforgettable - their energy and joy were infectious. The different experiences on offer were charmingly realistic and utterly absorbing. We particularly loved the interactive elements, my little one was very proud to have been so 'helpful' to Mrs Bird. The whole event was a celebration of kindness and support for others- for children growing up in an uncertain world this is a joyous slice of comfort, topped by a huge dollop of love.
