The London Eye is the city's most famous way to see London from above. With these London Eye tickets you board the observation wheel for a 30-minute ride that reaches 135 metres and soak up panoramic views of the city.
London from above
As your capsule slowly rises, you can pick out landmarks such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey and Trafalgar Square. The curves of the Thames and the city's rooftops give you a unique sense of London's scale, and the hours around sunset are especially good for photos.
Time slots and waiting
The time slot on your ticket is when you join the queue, not when you board. Holiday periods can mean longer waits. The number of people per capsule may vary, and the attraction may close areas at its discretion on the date of your visit.
Security check
Security at the London Eye is strict: all visitors go through a non-invasive security check before boarding, and you can ask to be searched by an officer of the same sex. Items not permitted include alcohol, baseball bats, bicycles (including folding ones) and explosives, including fireworks.
How booking works
Choose your date and number of guests and send your request; at this stage we only place a hold on your card. We check availability with the operator, email you when we confirm and take the payment at that point. If the request cannot be fulfilled, we email you and your card is not charged.
Pair the Eye with a Thames cruise from our tours in London, and stay near the South Bank with our hotels in London.
