Merlin Combo Tickets (Official)

Directly from the London Eye/Merlin Entertainments. The most popular option for South Bank visitors.

Merlin Entertainments, the company behind the London Eye, also operates SEA LIFE London Aquarium, Madame Tussauds, Shrek's Adventure, and the London Dungeon. Their combo tickets bundle the London Eye with one or more of these attractions at significant discounts. Because all attractions are Merlin-owned, the combos are sold directly through the official booking system.

2-Attraction Combo: London Eye + SEA LIFE — From £45

Saves approximately 30% compared to buying both tickets separately. SEA LIFE London Aquarium is located directly next to the London Eye in County Hall, making this the most convenient combo. A standard adult SEA LIFE ticket is around £26, so at £45 for both, you are getting the London Eye for effectively £19 on top of the aquarium, or the aquarium for £16 on top of the London Eye. Either way, it is a strong deal. Particularly good for families, as children love the aquarium.

Best for: Families spending a day on the South Bank

3-Attraction Combo: London Eye + SEA LIFE + Madame Tussauds — From £60

Saves approximately 40% compared to individual tickets. Madame Tussauds is in Marylebone (Baker Street tube), about 25 minutes from the South Bank by tube. At £60 for three attractions, the per-attraction cost drops to just £20 each, compared to £29+ for the London Eye alone. This is excellent value if you genuinely want to visit all three. The 90-day validity means you do not have to cram everything into one day.

Best for: Tourists visiting London for 2-3 days

5-Attraction Combo — From £59

The biggest saver at up to 71% off. Includes London Eye, SEA LIFE, Madame Tussauds, Shrek's Adventure, and the London Dungeon. At £59 for five attractions, that is less than £12 per attraction — compared to £25-29+ for each one individually. However, this requires a genuine commitment to visiting all five, which takes at least 2-3 full days. Only worth it if you and your group (especially children) will genuinely enjoy all five experiences.

Best for: Families on a multi-day London holiday

London Eye + River Cruise — From £42

A natural pairing. See London from 135m above, then from water level on a Thames circular cruise. The cruise departs from right next to the London Eye pier, making logistics seamless. At £42, this saves about 25% compared to booking both separately. The cruise typically lasts 40 minutes and passes the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, and the City of London.

Best for: First-time London visitors, couples

Go City Explorer Pass

Choose 2-7 attractions from 80+ options. London Eye included.

The Go City Explorer Pass lets you choose a set number of attractions (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7) from a list of over 80 options across London, including the London Eye. You receive a digital pass and can visit your chosen attractions at your own pace within 60 days of first use. The London Eye is one of the highest-value inclusions, so using it as one of your Explorer Pass attractions maximises your savings.

Break-Even Analysis

The Explorer Pass becomes worthwhile if the combined individual ticket prices of your chosen attractions exceed the pass price. Since the London Eye alone is worth £29, using it as one of a 2-attraction pass (from £69) means the second attraction needs to be worth at least £40 individually to break even. For a 3-attraction pass (from £94), the remaining two attractions need to be worth £65 combined.

The pass works best when you include high-value attractions: London Eye (£29), Tower of London (£33), Westminster Abbey (£27), Kensington Palace (£23). Including lower-value attractions or free ones dilutes the value.

London Pass (Go City All-Inclusive)

Unlimited attractions on consecutive days. From £89 for 1 day.

The London Pass (now the Go City All-Inclusive Pass) gives you access to 80+ attractions on consecutive days, including the London Eye. Unlike the Explorer Pass, there is no limit on the number of attractions you can visit each day, making it ideal for intensive sightseeing trips. Passes range from 1 day (£89) to 10 days, with the per-day cost decreasing as you add more days.

To get value from a 1-day pass at £89, you would need to visit at least 3 paid attractions worth £30+ each. This is achievable but requires careful planning and early starts. Multi-day passes offer much better value for visitors spending several days exploring London. The 3-day pass, for example, averages out to around £40 per day, which is easily covered by visiting just 2 attractions per day.

Our Honest Advice on Combo Tickets

If you are only visiting the London Eye, do not buy a combo ticket. Use one of the individual discount routes from our deals page instead. A National Rail discount or Tesco Clubcard redemption will save you more on a single attraction than any combo.

Combos only save money if you genuinely want 2+ attractions. Do not buy a 3-attraction combo just because the per-attraction price looks low, if you are only truly interested in the London Eye. The time and energy required to visit three attractions is significant, especially with children or in hot weather.

For families on the South Bank, the 2-attraction combo (London Eye + SEA LIFE) is often the sweet spot. Both attractions are in the same building, the aquarium is genuinely excellent for children, and the 30% saving is substantial. The 3-attraction combo is good if Madame Tussauds is on your list, but it requires travelling to Marylebone.

For the Go City / London Pass, only buy if you are doing a multi-day London trip with 3+ paid attractions per day. Casual visitors who plan one or two attractions per day will not break even.

Combo Ticket FAQs

Is the London Eye included in the London Pass?

Yes, the London Eye is included in the London Pass (now part of Go City). With a London Pass, you can access the London Eye as one of your chosen attractions without paying separately. The London Pass offers 1-day to 10-day options, and the break-even point is typically 3-4 paid attractions in a single day. If you are visiting multiple paid attractions during your London stay, the London Pass can offer significant savings. However, if the London Eye is the only or one of just two paid attractions you plan to visit, buying individual tickets or using a Merlin combo will be cheaper.

What is the best combo deal for the London Eye?

The best combo deal depends on how many attractions you want to visit. For most families visiting 2-3 Merlin attractions near the South Bank, the official Merlin 2-attraction combo (London Eye + SEA LIFE from £45) or 3-attraction combo (+ Madame Tussauds from £60) offers the best value with savings of 30-40% compared to buying individual tickets. If you are planning to visit 4 or more attractions across London over several days, the Go City Explorer Pass (from £69 for 2 attractions) or London Pass may offer better overall value. Always calculate the per-attraction cost against individual ticket prices before committing.

Can you combine a combo ticket with a discount code?

Generally, no. Combo tickets are already discounted and cannot be combined with additional promotional codes such as National Rail, Tesco Clubcard, or Cadbury offers. Each type of discount represents a separate pricing tier. The one exception is that online booking prices are usually better than walk-up combo prices, so always buy combos online. If you only have a discount code for the London Eye specifically, it is worth comparing the total cost of using the discount on individual tickets versus the combo price to see which works out cheaper overall.

How long do combo tickets last?

Merlin combo tickets are typically valid for 90 days from the date of your first attraction visit, giving you flexibility to spread your visits across multiple days or even multiple trips to London. You must use your London Eye slot on the specific date and time you book, but the other attractions in your combo can usually be visited on any day within the 90-day validity period. Go City passes have different validity periods: the Explorer Pass is valid for 60 days from first use, while the All-Inclusive Pass must be used on consecutive days. Always check the specific terms when booking.
