Really enjoyed this activity! Had such great fun with my childhood bestie – skyscrapers, heights, and lights all the way, with perfect weather to top it off. Everything was swift and smooth, from prep to housekeeping, and our host Max was super cool, calm, and collected throughout the evening. Huge thanks for a truly wonderful experience! The space and facilities were clean and tidy, which was much appreciated. The only downside was the footwear – the steel toe caps eventually started to hurt, so we had to make our way down the O2 backwards to ease the pressure. Ouch! Aside from that, it was an unforgettable adventure. Cheers!

We arrived early and spoke to the security who advised us to go up to the Oblix for a coffee. Once there the wonderful staff gave us a window seat and instead we ordered brilliant cocktails. When time we went up the Shard and on the 69th floor had coffee and cake whilst looking at the superb views of London. We then went up to the 70th floor where the facade stops and the sway feels like you are on a boat and it was all fantastic!

Everything was amazing! The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Lily, especially, who was our guide up on the climb and made us all feel very comfortable chatting away to us. The view going up, on the top, and coming down was surreal. We did the Twilight time and we got to see it all in both daylight and nighttime which was fantastic! Definitely would do it again at Christmas time when the snow globe is there

    We did the sunset tour and it was absolutely beautiful. Our guide, Mikayla, was great. She was interesting, fun, and gave us a great explaination of the view from above. We were a couple in our 50's with 2 of our kids in their 20's and we all enjoyed and had fun.

    Amazing experience, we were going to a concert at the O2 and decided that we would do the climb while we was there. I was a little nervous but Aaron was a great guide and made it a good experience. Would definitely do it again!

The Staff were really Friendly, and Theo especially helped my nervous 9year old throughout and made him feel much more relaxed and confident. Would definitely recommend
