Europe’s tallest cantilevered beam, a ride on the London Eye is similar to the visit to the Eiffel Tower’s peak. A ride on this iconic landmark is the most popular experience of all time that it attracts 3.75 million visitors annually. An unobstructed 360 degrees bird’s eye view of London is a complete treat to the passengers’ eyes during their ride on the London Eye.

A ride on the London Eye – Experience
We recommend our travellers to take the fast track ticket which gives an edge by reducing the waiting time. The Ferris wheel takes 30 minutes to complete one round and is extremely slow to ensure passengers soak in the views of all the sides in the capsule. Courteous staff would help you aboard the capsule which will be very slow-moving while boarding. It would not affect your boarding though it can be completely stopped for senior citizens on a wheelchair.
The capsule crosses a large camera during the descent which will capture a photograph of the passengers which is available for purchase. On your arrival back to the platform after the end of your ride on the London Eye, the staffs open the door and help you with a safe exit from the pod.
What’s New at the London Eye?
Entry into a fantastic 4D cinema in the nearby County Hall is a new added benefit to your ride on the London Eye ticket. You will witness the flights of a seagull hovering over the London eye and other iconic structures of the city. The sights and the sounds will make you feel like you’re on it!
