What an unforgettable experience! Our sunset climb over The O2 was made even more special by our fantastic guide, Theo. He was friendly, knowledgeable and reassuring throughout, making sure everyone felt safe, relaxed and able to enjoy the spectacular views. The Prosecco at the top as the sun set over London was the perfect touch. To top it all off, Ariana Grande was performing the final night of her run at The O2 beneath our feet—making an already brilliant evening feel completely magical. A unique London experience that we would thoroughly recommend. Thank you, Theo!

My Grandson asked if we could go. I checked into it and booked online. The guide was brilliant, helpful, patient and informative. The experience is definitely one to remember. The views from the top are amazing with views from the Greenwich Observatory to the Olympic Park and beyond.

Xavier was our guide, and was brilliant 👏 👌 Very friendly, thought the whole presentation , from harnessing everybody, group talks, information throughout was great. Talk at top of the O2 was very interesting and well delivered . Well done Xavier. My only criticism about the whole thing was the drinks !!! I paid £8 each for champagne. It was advertised at the ticket booth as Lanson Champagne, showing miniature bottles. On delivery at the top you get 1 bottle between 2 of Prosecco !!! ??? But misleading and felt a bit ripped off to be honest
