Okay, this one is my favorite. Imagine floating down the Thames on a boat, wind in your hair, with views of the Shard and Canary Wharf. You can catch the Uber Boat by Thames Clippers from central piers like Embankment or London Bridge.
It takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and you arrive right at the O2’s own pier. You walk off the boat and into the crowd. It’s so much more fun than a rattling train, right? Think of it as a mini-cruise before the main event.

Is It Pricier?
A little bit, maybe £8–£10 for a single ticket. But honestly? That boat trip is worth every penny for the vibes. Plus, you can buy a drink onboard—a pre-show toast on the water!
