Of course it is a must that when in London you go on the eye. Even though we had pre booked our tickets the que was horrendous and it was pouring with rain! Once on the eye, the rain got heavier and the thunder and lightening was right outside our capsule when we reached the top which was scary stuff!... More

As my son was visiting London from Houston Texas with his new American wife I wanted to give them an experience which they would not forget so I booked a capsule with champagne served and guess what, we had it all to ourselves with the wine waiter. White linen table cloth and cork popped as we travelled up to the... More

Yes, the London Eye is a bit expensive, but well worth it. And there is a senior [[concessions] rate Monday through Friday but I think you have to get the ticket just before you get on. We were 6 seniors and went to the ticket window at 9:45 AM on Friday and got tickets and were on the wheel in... More

If you Wold like to get a nice overwiev of London, this is a must. It's smart to buy a guide booklet offered at the ticket office. The ride lasts 30 minuites. In busy periods be smart and pre-book at flight, or stand in line for an hour or more! The cost is £19 (march '13), but on all the... More

Well worth a trip, only had to wait 15 mins in the queue. We went on a clear day. The pods are clean and not overcrowded. so excellent opportunities for photos.

On a recent trip to London, I got to experience the London Eye for the first time. On my previous visit 13 years earlier, the London Eye had only recently opened and we were unable to get tickets. On the day of our visit, the weather was wet and grey (typical London weather), but despite the inclement conditions, the views... More

London Eye is a fun ride with splendid views of London. Not to be missed. This was my second time. However - keep it simple folks!!! Buy your ticket online at least the day before and aim for a late arrival just before sunset. You'll save money, you'll get the same views (sun can be shining straight in at certain... More

My suggestion would be to buy your ticket early, then get in line just before dusk - for us that was 8:15pm. While up, we saw the city transform, the lights coming on, the sun setting to darkness, Big Ben was a sight to see! It was beautiful! It was about 19 UKP each, roughly $30 USD. It only takes... More

Being thrifty, we had never done the London eye despite visiting London yearly for several years. We finally broke down and did it. We got the double pass for the river cruise and the eye which seemed cheaper. Did the cruise first. The guide was funny and knowledgeable. The eye was definitely worth it. It wasn't scary at all and... More
