Really enjoyed our visit to The Shard! The views over London are amazing and it's great to see all the famous landmarks from up there. We had a lovely time taking photos and enjoying the view. Definitely worth a visit if you're in London! It's crazy how fast the lift is!

Visiting the Shard viewing platforms was an overwhelming experience. Especially because we had such beautiful clear day and you could see for miles. And being able to use Apple/Google Maps to help identify all of the famous landmarks and buildings was absolutely brilliant. 100% highly recommend that you put this on your must do list when visiting London.

At 8:00 AM, we walked along the Thames from the Harriott Hotel by the London Eye (which we booked this morning through this app) to the Tower, arriving right on time at 8:45 AM. We still had to wait about 45 minutes until entry, but that is normal and wasn't an issue at all in the sunny weather! Following the advice we’d received, we headed straight over to the Crown Jewels exhibition. That collection is truly impressive! The other areas are all interestingly designed as well. The entire castle and all its sections are in very good, well-maintained, and restored condition. You’d never believe that the Tower has several hundred years under its belt! The guards are all very friendly, but also take their duty very seriously! They are happy to let you take photos, but putting an arm around their shoulder—which one female tourist tried to do—was politely declined! The restrooms are also in very good condition. As a German, it's nice to see that some signs also provide information in German! However, exploring some of the areas does require good physical fitness. In the White Tower, you first walk through all 3 floors twice along the length and twice across the width before winding your way back down inside one of the turrets! The minimum 3 hours you should plan to see most areas fly by very quickly! If, like us, you also opt for Tower Bridge admission with a slightly cheaper combo ticket, take the stairs instead of the elevator (which we only noticed once we reached the top), and then walk all the way back to the hotel, you are guaranteed some serious muscle soreness the next day if you're an out-of-shape tourist! The meticulously maintained Engine Rooms of Tower Bridge are also very interesting. The steam engine looks so pristine that you’d think it was just built! Though back when it was still coal-fired, it probably looked a bit dustier! The rich green with contrasting pin-striping painted on all the moving parts shows that true craftsmen who loved their trade were at work here! All in all, a fantastic combo trip that is well worth doing twice in a lifetime! It’s a pity, though, that no guided tours are offered in German, but you rarely find those at British attractions anyway...

The London Eye is more than just an attraction; it is an unforgettable journey that touches your heart and leaves you speechless. Some places are beautiful to visit, but others make you feel something special. London Eye was one of those rare experiences where every view became a memory and every moment felt like a dream. A city beneath my feet, the sky above my head, and a heart full of unforgettable memories. ❤️🎡🇬🇧

We went to see westlife at the 02 arena, the cable car allowed us to see the arena from the other side and see how large it actually is, we were able to watch the climbers at the top of the arena too. We then saw a food festival that was happening on the other side and someone was water boarding too. It just made our whole day magical. I will definitely be back again soon as we would love to show my children and grandchild the other side of London. Many thanks for making our day special
