Cha cha our host was fantastic, unfact the whole up the 02 team were so lovely. Great views even with the evening fog, lots of information on focal points at the top, health and safety of it all was fantastic, nice to be able to have a drink at tye top (you pay before you go up there, Ithought it was reasonable considering. I would highly recommend the experience and we will be doing it again, thank you to the whole team

Our tour guide Rebecca made our experience great fun and full of interesting facts -thank you. You deserve to be mentioned first though all the staff were very friendly and helpful. This was a fabulous trip and the views were amazing. Enjoyed a delicious mulled wine on the top from the snow dome too. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great experience and the guide Zavia was very kind to my daughter for her birthday, we couldn't hear the information he was telling us about the area as the wind drowned his voice Otherwise it was great the girls enjoyed the snow globe at the top unfortunately the hot chocolate was lukewarm and not worth the money

    It was a bit of a last minute decision to book on our recent trip to the O2 for a concert, Really chuffed that I did. The day had been a bit grey and drizzly but what do you expect on the 24th November. I had watched a couple of the earlier groups going up from my hotel window thinking they will probably close it down if the weather stays like this & It certainly doesn't look like a fun thing to be doing today. Even as I arrived at BASE CAMP in the drizzle I kind of thought or maybe hoped it would be called off. Apparently it's never called off. Turns out I was the only person booked for 4 pm Absolute result. By the time I got sorted with the harness, coat and gloves the clouds had cleared and the beautiful London skyline was beginning to light up. So off I set on my solo climb with Rebecca my guide who was absolutely brilliant company. The view from the top on a clear November evening Is really amazing. I had loads of time on the top platform to take it all in and Rebecca even put the snow machine on for me in the snow dome. I would like to say it was the highlight (see what I did) of my trip to London, but as we were going to see Radiohead inside the O2 that evening, it comes a very close second. Actually standing on the top was a great way to get the blood pumping for a fantastic concert. Loved every second of it.
