London Eye

I'm going to London for a weekend on 15th of May with my wife and wondered if there is a cheap way to do the London Eye.

Thanks
I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the Ramada/Days Inn BRG thread.

    Be prepared to queue, easier if you book in advance. My OH and i went in Sept and the queues were miles long. I didnt know you could book in advance. Boat ride down the river is also good. We got off at the tower,
    had some lovely fish and chips from a kiosk with a coke for a fiver.
    Had a walk round and got back on the boat for the return jounery. Dont buy anything on the embankment you will be ripped off terribly.
    Dont know of any discount though, sorry
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    are you planning to visit other attractions such as the london dungeons, madame taussades etc as you can buy combi tickets (some attractions, theatre shows, resturants etc)which makes it cheaper http://www.londoneye.com/TicketsAndPrices/Packages/Default.aspx

    or if you book flight on only in advance on line 10% cheaper than booking on the day
