Pro tips to help you make a pick

Always purchase your tickets online ahead of time rather than buying at the box office. Booking online guarantees your preferred entry time and can save you up to 35% compared to paying full walk-up prices on the day.

For a quieter, more relaxed experience, aim for weekday afternoon time slots. Weekends, bank holidays, and school break periods sell out fast and tend to be far busier and more sensory-heavy for younger children.

Children under the age of two enter for free, but they still require a physical ticket to enter. Make sure to select and add the complimentary "Babes in arms" ticket to your basket during online checkout so entry goes smoothly.

If you or a member of your group requires extra assistance, select an Access or Wheelchair ticket online. You can claim one complimentary Essential Companion/Carer ticket alongside each eligible paid entry ticket.

If you own a Go City London Pass, you can gain access to or receive substantial discounts on standard admission. Pass holders can also get additional perks, such as 20% off food and drink at the Marmalade Day celebration cafe.

Aim to arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled entry time to scan tickets and use the cloakroom. Large bags and buggies must be dropped off at the cloakroom before boarding the interactive train, so pack light to avoid delays.

It was our first visit to the London Eye and we really enjoyed it. The weather was perfect for getting amazing views of London. The one day unlimited boat trim on the Thames was the icing on the cake for us. What better way could there be to see so much of London. The boat was comfortable with cafe and toilets. A special shout to the captain that provided a great commentry, both informative and amusing. Great

This is an experience worth having if you understand English perfectly... they speak so fast that it's hard to keep up with the conversation if you miss a few words...

Paddington Bear Experience was the most wonderful experience I have ever enjoyed in my life. I have been a big fan of Paddington for my fist trip in London last year. I was really happy because the place sticks well to the film universe. I will come back and Paddington has a big fan from France and I was definitely in my element. I like doing the same activities than kids because I am a child at heart. The big advantage with Headout app was the payment in euro before the experience.

My 10 year old thought it was a fun activity for all ages, especially Paddington fans. She loved the Marmalade Festival at the end of the experience. She thought it was great that it was a "real festival".

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.
