The London Eye cruise departs from the pier next to the London Eye, with no stops throughout, offering panoramic views of the Thames. I really think it is a good value for money while aboard the boat. Amazing views to be seen while you sail down the river! Throughout the comfortable cruise, with live commentary, you'll see famous landmarks such as St Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London, HMS Belfast, Shakespeare's Ring, Tate Modern and London's Millennium Bridge .
Over all, I really enjoyed it, the conductor was a little funny, as well as giving a tour guide of the famous buildings. The boat went a little down the Thames then up before returning to the dock. The trip lasted about 45 minutes. It was not early but still managed to get a seat at the top. Apart from that it's always nice to go on a sunny day. Highly recommended.

Urban Playground Below: London's vibrant urban sprawl sprawled out beneath us, a bustling playground of life. The ant-sized double-decker buses, miniature parks, and the intricate maze of streets became a fascinating miniature world.

Checkinaway (@checkinawayblog) The World's Famous Ferris Wheel 🏴
#londontrip
This has always been one of the top tourist spot that you must see in London. It's like a necessity when you are a first time visitor of this beautiful city.
‼️Tip
Take a photo before you cross the bridge so you will see the entire beauty of The London Eye. This was our mistake, we crossed the bridge first so then we only took got to snap photos of its back. The best view of it is across the river where the Big Ben and the houses of parliament are. I managed to take a photo of its front on a different day but the weather wasn't cooperative so I just quickly took a snap.
We didn't have time to go onto the london eye but if you have a lot of time in London and if you have booked a reservation then enjoy it and see the city from the most famous ferris wheel in the world. I think you will have 30 minutes for this experience. Prices differ from where you buy your ticket and what time of the day you are going.
Address: Riverside Building, County Hall, London SE1 7PB
Enjoy your London tour.

The most iconic place to visit in London. There can't be any trip without being on the London Eye for an amazing view of London. This is one of its kind observation wheels, 120 meter diameter and goes 135 meters high in the sky. The wheel's 32 sealed and air-conditioned ovoidal passenger capsule, each can accommodate 25 people. The capsules are numbered from 1 to 33, excluding number 13 for superstitious reasons. BTW, this is not the only place in the UK which excludes number 13 🤣.
