I have been on the London Eye before, but it was a long time ago. On my last full day in London, I hopped on the London Eye for one last view of the city before returning home. The lines were relatively short, but I chose to go through the Fast Track becaue I did not feel like waiting in line. I waited a few inutes before getting on. Once on, I could see of London. I enjoyed finding different landmarks and getting.a picture for memory sake. This won't be the last time I jump on the London Eye, I will definately do it again on my next visit in 2027.

Quickly through the line to the pods with no problems. A problem with the doors on the pod after ours meant we were stopped for quite a long time and reversed a couple of times. Dropped a star for lack of information re problem. Once we got going it was very smooth with great views despite the rain. All staff cheerful and helpful, especially the young lady who dealt with our photo order in the gift shop

I had London Eye at the top of my wish list and am soo glad I did it! DO NOT THINK twice about purchasing the Fast Pass! I could not believe the lines and for a few pounds more you can save yourself hours!! We had no wait and basically walked on! Seeing everyone in the queue from up above I did not understand why everyone didn't purchase the Fast Past option, I cannot recommend it enough!

    Thanks to the FastTrack, we hardly had to wait. The London Eye opened at 1100 and we were among the first on board. The experience at the top is really beautiful. You have a direct view of the House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and the city district of the same name. You see little or nothing of the part with the Tower of London or Tower Bridge.

    Beefeater Tour was very good - but left out that it was a good overview and you can then spend the rest of the day seeing the rest of the Tower. But got good access prior that made the experience much better than if I had just walked up and bought tickets. Gave us some good advice about what to see first to enjoy the Tower.

    The Fastlane tickets are great and the view is magnificent. The team is very friendly and the handling is impeccable. There are not too many guests in one cabin. Everyone can see very well.
