Great view of London & surrounding areas
Good experience seeing London & surrounding areas from a different perspective. Takes about 30 mins so you have the time to try & figure out where everything is. The pods will stop for those with accessibility issues so that they can get on & off easily, otherwise be prepared for a moving target. Not sure it’s worth the £39 price tag though…just ticket no extras.

It was ok
This was a take it or leave it attraction for me. Cost was a bit expensive, $50. US. Half hour for one revolution. Nice views but could do without.

Great view
Great view of London. Includes commentary about the sites. We got the skip the line ticket and walked right on within 5 minutes.

Family day
Went for my sons birthday his seven. The queen line moved quite quick. Staff were helpful. Noticed elderly people in wheel chairs having to line up with us. Should be a separate line for wheelchair users. Other than that great experience.

i think the hype is better than the actual experience. so slow and draggy. it's a dud as far as i can see. however, i did enjoy seeing the city at sunset from above.
