You’ll step straight onto the London Eye with priority boarding, skipping most of the wait. Sip Moët & Chandon champagne served by your host as you rise over London’s skyline, spotting landmarks together and sharing laughs or quiet moments. The city feels different from above — lighter somehow — and you might find yourself wishing the ride lasted a bit longer.
It’s strange how quiet it feels up there, even with the city spinning below. We’d barely made it through the fast track queue (which honestly felt like cheating) before our host handed out glasses of chilled Moët & Chandon — I was nervous I’d spill it, but somehow didn’t. The bubbles hit just as we started moving, and suddenly the Thames looked like a silver ribbon. I caught a whiff of perfume from someone’s coat — floral, maybe lavender? — mixed with that faint metallic tang you get in new elevators.
Our host (I think her name was Emily?) pointed out the Shard and tried to teach us how to spot St Paul’s from way up high. She joked about how many proposals she’d seen on these rides — apparently people get so nervous they sometimes forget to actually ask. Someone in our pod asked if Big Ben really chimed every hour (it does), and for a second everyone just stood there listening for it, champagne paused mid-air. It was cloudy but you could still see far — London kind of sprawls out forever when you’re above it all.
I didn’t expect to feel so… floaty? Not just from the drink. Maybe it was the gentle rocking or just watching buses crawl across Westminster Bridge like little toys. I kept thinking about how many stories are happening down there at once. Anyway, thirty minutes goes quick when you’re distracted by everything and nothing at the same time.
