Good idea but hard to do!
I was under the impression this was a bus tour that once we were on it it would have managed on when n how we saw the Included 4 high points of London. Did NOT know that we had to find our own way between the 4 critical spots on our own. We only had the one day.No tickets or info given out until the day before. Phone calls, texts etc coming in while we r trying to enjoy another trip. Then on the fly having to make decisions on what time we want to see the 2 that need specific timed tickets. It would have been nice to know this info when at home where schedules can be looked up n timing planned on a big screen computer vs my mini iPhone 5” x 2.5” screen while out n about. Very disappointed. Did NOT use the hop on hop off portion of the tour as we had to tube it to be able to get between excursions. N even then we were hustling. Left hotel around 8 n back around 5. It would have been nice to tour around on the bus n see everything above ground instead underground in the tube. But the bus, depending on route chosen, takes ~2.5-3.5 hours. Not enough time in the day.

London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise cost?
+
Prices start at £179 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (2/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise?
+
Included: Panoramic Bus Tour of London with Guide & Wifi; One Way Thames River Cruise; Standard Entry to London Eye; and Entry to Tower of London & St. Paul's Cathedral. Not included: Personal Expenses. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise?
+
Board the bus from Stop number 8 Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is London in a Day: London Eye, St. Pauls, Tower of London & Cruise offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
