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.

The London Eye was AMAZING! I took my sister along with me and she was not as enthusiastic as I was about the ride. She said she was scared to go on it. But, about a third of the way up, she was up and telling everyone in the pod how beautiful the view was! To be able to get such a bird's eye view of London was breathtaking! I am so glad that I bought our flex tickets ahead of time. The line for tickets was long. But, we walked right up and got on the ride. The only time we even stopped was to take a picture! Truly remarkable experience!!

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!

    This experience went beyond my expectations. We came from Newfoundland, Canada and did this on our first night in London. We were blown away by the Champagne Experience. We signed up for a VIP experience and we certainly felt like VIPs. Special shout out to Amanda, our host for the evening. She was funny yet professional, and made sure to personally connect with each mini-group in the pod at some point. She told us about the champagne and what made it special. It was those little details that I will remember. Amanda was able to balance all of the arising needs of the guests (top up if requested, alternatives to the champagne, photos as requested by the guest) with ease and pizaz. We were excited to see and experience the London Eye, but I just wanted to personally shout out Amanda. I hope she gets kudos from her team for this review as she absolutely deserves it.

    The boarding process was slick, the views were amazing and everyone in the pod was friendly. We took pictures for each other and the atmosphere was convivial. The official photos taken were great and we bought a package. However, there was no pressure to buy them. It was a really good start to our day in London and a walk by the river afterwards was lovely.

    We added this to our day because we missed the chance the day before. We wanted to do the full VIP champagne experience and it was superb! The view was incredible. The host, Mia, was so sweet and high energy. It was the perfect way to enjoy an amazing view of London, Highly recommend.
