The experience

You skip most of the queue through the fast-track access line, arriving at your chosen time slot on the day you pick. Then you step into a shared capsule on the wheel that sits in the heart of the city, the only moving view in London. Rising 135 metres, the capsule carries you round so Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and St Paul's Cathedral come into view below.

Look past the landmarks and you may spot Windsor Castle on a clear day. Afterwards, the 4D Experience brings London to life with multi-sensory special effects, a journey of discovery that is included in your visit.
