London Eye Bus and Cruise Combo: 24-Hour Big Bus Pass and Thames Cruise

To see London by air, land and water on one ticket, this London Eye bus and cruise combo is the easy choice: the iconic observation wheel, a 24-hour hop-on hop-off bus tour and a Thames cruise together.

What the package covers

On the London Eye you take in 360° views of landmarks such as Big Ben, Tower Bridge and Buckingham Palace. Then explore the city at your own pace with a 24-hour Big Bus hop-on hop-off tour, and round off with a scenic Thames cruise past the Tower of London and The Shard. Commentary is available in 7 languages, and there is free Wi-Fi on board.

Bus times and your London Eye slot

Start your day at Green Park Underground at 08:30; buses run every 15–20 minutes until 18:00, with seasonal variations. Hop on at any of 40+ stops, including the London Eye (Stop 11) and the Tower of London (Stop 16). Choose your London Eye date and time slot in the Big Bus Manage my Booking portal; Big Bus runs 365 days a year, but the London Eye occasionally closes for holidays or maintenance. Show your ticket, printed or on a device, to staff at a stop.

Children and accessibility

Children aged 4–15 get discounted tickets and under-4s ride free; all children must be accompanied by an adult. All buses are wheelchair accessible with ramps and designated seating; there is space for one wheelchair per bus, or two if one guest can transfer to a seat. Mobility scooters and some larger wheelchairs may not fit, so check with Big Bus in advance.

How booking works

Choose your date and number of guests and send your request; at this stage we only place a hold on your card. We check availability with the operator, email you when we confirm and take the payment at that point. If the request cannot be fulfilled, we email you and your card is not charged.
