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.

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!

This definitely saved me money by combining multiple attractions; however, it was a bit confusing figuring out which attractions were included. I wanted to go on the London Eye, but I found out that I purchased the wrong pass so I ended up missing out on that attraction. It would be nice if it clearly stated all of the included attractions on each pass, as well as what isn't included.

Excellent customer service from all of the staff, from the time we walked through the door to the end of the climb. My wife is not good with heights but it was a birthday present to me, the young man through out the climb was really encouraging, lovely attitude and made it a fantastic experience. When we got to the top he gave my wife cold water and took photos of everyone with their own cameras . On the walk back down he was ensuring everyone was safe and having fun. Would recommend this experience to anyone, first class customer service from everyone. Made it to be a very enjoyable experience.
