This is the first thing we did on our 8 days (first time in London) and we have to say it was worth it! The views of the city were breathtaking and gave us a good sense of locations. We came late, about 7:30 pm, and had a wait of about 20 min (no fast track). We were one of the last capsules they filled before closing for the day.
Two for One tickets made it affordable. Lines were long even after getting the tickets but they moved quite quickly. Staff are all very good at helping. Once in the pod it's a great sight and air conditioned too! No commentary about the sights which I thought would be nice but I guess not everyone wants that and there is an app you can use.
Rememberable experience. Beautiful place. Always fun to be there.
Very much tourists attraction, buy tickets online if you want to skip the big queues
Such an amazing view. It was my first visit. Love the safety measures in place, it was myself and my friend in a pod alone, made the experience even better. We was able to play music, chat has loud as we like. I'm looking to visit again an experience the view at night.
Fantastic experience!! This is the second time we have been on the Eye. We booked tickets online, which now don't have to be converted to paper ones (so much easier), but we did decide to upgrade and fast track them for the cost of More
love it because you can see many marvelous locations of London
Amazing views of London and River Thames. Discounted tickets available on online. Don't miss marine aquarium and Thames river cruise. The pictures are the view from London Eye
A most beautiful sight, I am super excited I was able to go see for myself. The view from the top is amazing. The staff and attendants were courteous and friendly. The process of getting ticket, getting on the ride and getting off was seamless.

We were very happy to have decided to go on the eye. Great views on a sunny day. I would suggest not spending the money unless it s a nice day out. But regardless it s a great experience. Oh a spend the extra money to skip the line! It s worth it!
- I loved it specially during the night
- London eye is one of the best place in London city
Good experience for visitors to have. The whole experience feels a bit rushed and you re treated like cattle. Stop now, let s stamp you, okay go in, okay come out, okay stop, okay get out, okay thank you bye. Good few minutes for views on the top. Won t do it again though.
Major attraction of London and must visit item.
As nearby many other tourist destinations are also available.
Amazing! It was really fun to be in the London eye during my vacation, it's sort of sucks that most of London is covered in scaffolding right now. But it was still a beautiful sight. I recommend everyone do it at least once in their life.
Beautiful view of the city from the London Eye. A must experience if you visit London.
The iconic London Eye has all the markings of a tourist trap. There isn t anything in the city that matches the views. You get a fresh perspective of the city and on a clear day you can see London stretch to the horizon and at night the city twinkles below.
My wife and I had a blast riding this and checking out the sites of the city. the line was not very long and it the staff was very friendly and helpful!
Glad we rode this iconic ride.in London. Great views!
London Eye.
The structure is 135 metres (443 ft) tall and the wheel has a diameter of 120 metres (394 ft).When it opened to the public in 2000 it was the world's tallest Ferris wheel.The London Eye was designed by the husband-and-wife team of Julia Barfield and David Marks of Marks Barfield Architects.
The London Eye was formally opened by the Prime Minister Tony Blair on 31 December 1999, but did not open to the paying public until 9 March 2000 because of a capsule clutch problem.
Totally Safe to Get on No wobbly feeling and Loads of Amazing View from up there.
The London Eye is located on the south side of the Tames. Crowed and popular place in London. There are many animations and shows in the surroundings. From South Bank centre to the front Westminster. You can see Big Ben and the London bridge
Again a must visit if you are on London . My last experience with the Melbourne Star which is a very similar concept in Melbourne city was not the best and we were skeptical whether this would be anything better. However it was part of our tour and we took our chances .We were booked for a Sunday evening when this place has the most visitors . The long queue gave us a felling that we would be here for the rest of the day . To our surprise they manage it pretty well . We were in and out within an hour . The view when your cabin reaches the top is something that must be experienced . This is one monument which is just 19 years old . Everything else starts with a thousand year old history . Worth every penny . The fast track line can be skipped since the regular ones also move pretty fast . A must do if you are in London.
A view of london from the most famous and biggest giant wheel of europe.
We came here nearing the hectic Christmas holiday and the queue is quite long.
Luckily with max capacity at 25 people per capsules, we are in in short time.
My sister is using wheelchair, and the staffs are very attentive. They stop the wheel, put on a board to close the gap, them help my sister out from the capsule.
Also since there are 20 of us, we are allowed to occupy 1 capsule.
The day was clear and sun was shining bright. And we can see far in all directions, and take gorgeous pictures inside the capsule.
It was a day worth remembering..
Nice place to spend time here.
Wow moment from the top and looking ahead for more journies to this place.
All COVID 19 precautions have taken during the visit.
Very organized queue, great staff. And of course magnificent view over the city center.
It was great to see the whole of London but then it got a little boring. Worth seeing but wouldn't do it again.
Fantastic views of the London Skyline. But a bit overpriced.
I went with my family of 6. The view was beautiful and people with fear of heights won't feel a thing. The movement is slow and smooth so you have plenty of time to enjoy the view and take pictures.
Loved it, definitely a 1 off experience. I'm scared of heights, but don't worry there are seats located centrally in the capsules if you want to stay grounded. As all of London, you definitely pay enough for the experience, however beautiful location and views and the kids loved it.
Well the weather didn't exactly play ball but the experience was really great, in spite of the weather.
It's an expense that gives you so much in return, I had wondered how I'd feel, apart from a nervous moment as I stepped on, as it never actually comes to a complete stop, it was amazing and I loved it.
Highly recommend it.
Beautiful place to visit... it was made for temporary basis in 2000 for millennium celebrations... but since then its permanent ... :D
Well worth the wait. The views are breathtaking and the best way to see the city. Managed to get up near sunset which would highly recommend.
The Best things to Do in London.We will get the best view of London from the top of the Giant wheel.Its also very beautiful to see it on the nights.
There is a fixed camera ,which takes our photographs & we can get that on online as well.
Some times there will a long Queue of peoples,so make sure to select your time before arrival.
One of the top attraction of London. Don't miss this. An awesome one time experience. Top view of London city. Loved the ride. Don't forget to ask for your pic after the ride.
Lots of fun with lots of people and attraction in the area. Worth the money.
We did the VIP with champagne. As it was a lovely day very chaotic. Will do the chocolate one next time at night time.
A height grip to appreciate London in a different way
Super beautiful London Eye. Very nice view from the bridges.
Great for taking the kids to their Xmas special event with elves. If you go to this then you get priority boarding, entertainment for the kids and an elves hat as well.
Something to keep them entertained while you look out across the amazing views. Friendly staff. The only comment would be that the photos after are expensive but obviously aimed at tourists.
The view from up top is quite nice, but personally I felt underwhelmed by the overall experience. We had reservations, so we didn't have to wait long. I can't imagine waiting in a queue for hours for it, there are so many better things to see in London.
Also, the Coca-Cola branding and renaming comes across as very obnoxious to me, taking away from its status as a landmark and turning it into a sort of advertising prop.
Third time here but this time is different, they gave us a whole pod for ourselves (my family ) this will be the most memorable time ever , one cool thing out of the pandemic
