I treated my husband to a City Cruiser and London Eye trip. The whole day was lovely, London in sparkling winter sunshine coupled with a river cruise and the views from the Eye - what's not to like! There was a very big queue for the Eye but it moves on quite fast. The panoramic views of the city are splendid, We would love to return as soon as possible and try a trip later in the day to catch the sunset or lights.
The views from the boat along the Thames was very enjoyable.
Only negative for us (and it is only a small one) was that we didn't realise that the London Dungeon and the Aquarium are also next to the Eye so the area along the Embankment was very congested.
My suggestion would be wear comfortable shoes and be ready to get on and off the Eye as you don't have very long to do so!
