It was a last minute decision, as my mom (visiting from the states) wanted to go after our other plans cancelled. We booked the champagne experience for a little extra celebration (we had no idea it existed). The lounge was gorgeous, our guide (Owen) was lovely and knowledgable. The 4 other people meant to show up for the experience never did, so me and my mom got the entire pod to ourselves. It was a once in a lifetime experience, knowing how busy the London eye gets. It made it so special, sipping some champagne with my mom all alone at the top of the ferris wheel. Definitely something I'll never forget.

We had the VIP Champagne Experience on the London Eye and it was absolutely wonderful. Elle was great — very knowledgeable, friendly, and she kindly took photos for us, which made the experience even more special. The whole experience felt very well done from start to finish, and the views of London were incredible. It was a really memorable way to see the city, and we would definitely recommend it.

Having the flex fast tracked ticket was super helpful because we didn't know what time we would actually get to the Eye. Though we had planned on about 6pm, we ended up getting there in the early afternoon. Our ticket type allowed us to board w no issues. The view is spectacular and we only had about 8 others on board with us. This is a MUST DO while in London.

Very easy to find as it's located along the quay. We didn't have to wait thanks to our skip-the-line tickets, and we felt really safe even at the top. The wheel turns slowly and the view of London is spectacular. We chose a day without rain so we could see better. I recommend this attraction for young and old alike.

We reserved the fast track tickets for the last available time of the day. It worked out great as there were only 10 or so other passengers in the pod with us. We lucked out with a clear sky at sunset but the views would be amazing even if it were cloudy. This was the perfect way to cap off our trip to London.

Fast efficient boarding. Those in charge of capsules stopped ours completely both as we go on and as we got off to allow my friend with a stick to board and alight safely. Our party of 4, celebrating 60 years of knowing each other, were most impressed. We would come again!
