Which London combo to book
First visit, short stay. The London Eye + Thames River Cruises bundle is the most booked London pair: the wheel and a sightseeing cruise that leaves from the pier right below it. You do both in one afternoon on the South Bank without moving anywhere.
Madame Tussauds and the Eye. London Eye + Madame Tussauds is the most searched pair, and Tiqets now sells it. Its most reviewed version includes fast-track entry to the Eye. The Eye is on the South Bank and Madame Tussauds on Marylebone Road, so allow a Tube ride between them.
History people. Tower of London + Tower Bridge Exhibition is the easy win. The Crown Jewels and the bridge walkways are a few minutes' walk apart, so you can do both in a half day. Give the Tower itself most of the time. Tower of London + St Paul's Cathedral is another strong pair for a day in the City. If you prefer churches to castles, St Paul's Cathedral + Westminster Abbey covers London's two great churches. Both are working churches and close to visitors around services, so check opening times for the day you pick.
Views. The Shard + Tower Bridge Exhibition pairs the highest viewing deck in town with the bridge just across the river, and The Shard + Tower of London works the same way. The Shard + Thames River Cruises comes with several cruise options; check which one. Tower of London + London Eye works too, but the two are on different stretches of the river, so plan a Tube or boat ride between them.
River and cable car. Thames River Cruises + London Cable Car combines a single Uber Boat by Thames Clippers journey with a return cable car crossing over the river in the east. It's a good half day if you're staying near Greenwich or the O2.
Families. SEA LIFE London Aquarium + Madame Tussauds is the classic family pair, and The London Dungeon + Madame Tussauds suits older kids who like a scare. Shrek's Adventure + The Paddington Bear Experience suits younger kids, and the London: Family Pass puts a river cruise, the London Transport Museum and London Zoo in one order. Madame Tussauds + London Cable Car is another option. The family pass has very few reviews so far.
Royal London. The London Royal Pass bundles Westminster Abbey, the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace and a Changing of the Guard walking tour. Kew Gardens + Kensington Palace is a quieter pair; Kew is out in south-west London, so allow travel time between them.
Art. The Shard + Frameless and Moco + Frameless suit people who'd rather see immersive digital art than old masters.

Is a combo cheaper than separate tickets?
Most Tiqets London bundles cost a little less than buying the same two tickets one by one. The discount is small, not dramatic. Tiqets passes (the Royal Pass, Family Pass, London City Card) are priced as one product, so compare them with the parts you'd actually use.
The bigger "Save" figures you'll see on Headout combos are measured against each attraction's standard gate price. Treat them as a guide, not a promise, and compare the final price on the booking page. For the large passes (London Pass, Go City Explorer Pass), add up the attractions you'd really visit before you buy.
How the tickets work
You check out once and receive a separate ticket for each attraction, usually as a QR code on your phone. Most bundles ask you to pick a date, and sometimes a time slot, for each part. The London Eye and The Shard run timed entries, so book the slot you want first and plan the rest around it. River cruises and the cable car are usually more flexible. Cancellation rules can differ per part, so check the conditions on the booking page.
Combos Tiqets doesn't sell here
Tiqets sells London Eye + Madame Tussauds as a pair, but not the three-attraction Madame Tussauds, London Eye & SEA LIFE combo. GetYourGuide has that one, plus Shrek's Adventure + London Eye and SEA LIFE + Shrek's Adventure, and its own versions of the two-attraction pairs. Headout sells the same group of attractions in several combinations, plus a Big Bus hop-on hop-off + Thames cruise + London Eye combo. They share one operator, hence so many combinations.
For city passes, both platforms offer The London Pass and the Go City Explorer Pass. Trip.com lists the Explorer Pass too.
