Travelers praise the London Eye for spectacular panoramic views of landmarks such as Big Ben and Parliament, especially during festive seasons. The tour features efficient planning and friendly staff who manage large groups smoothly. Urban and natural landscapes provide unique, expansive perspectives valued for photography. While many appreciate skip-the-line convenience and quality views, some find the price high relative to the experience, suggesting it may not suit all for repeat visits.

Fun time but buy your ticket across from wheel and it’s cheaper

Robert_H, Nov 2026
Was a fun time and appreciated the champagne and shorter line but you can book it when you walk up for face value and not have to pay a premium to Viator Had i known i could’ve saved like 20 pounds i believe 🙏🏻

London Eye Review

Jennifer_M, Nov 2026
Great way to see London area if you've never been here before. On a clear day you can see a whole of different things of the London skyline.

London Rocks!!

Phillip_C, Oct 2026
Great view!! Line setup a little inefficient… the day was gorgeous! Love London!!! Go Great Britain!

London EYE extraordinary!

MaryEllen_w, Oct 2026
We went on a day it was raining. Do not skip this attraction just because it’s raining, it is still absolutely amazing! Been waiting 3 years to go on it because last time I was hear I didn’t know enough to book ahead of time, so please do that also! Enjoy London by sky it’s well worth it!!!

As expected

Tamara_J, Oct 2026
Stunning views, even in the rain. A bit pricey for the experience. My son enjoyed it, wouldn't do it again.

Good way to see view of...

Amanda_T, Oct 2026
Good way to see view of London. Helped to have a timed entry and skip the line. There are about 10-15 people in the pod with you.

Loved it

Teresa_M, Oct 2026
Great experience!! Easy to find and enter, very smooth experience, we actually were able to enter earlier

30 minute Birds Eye View

MARILYN_J, Oct 2026
Fast Track Line was worth the higher priced ticket!!!!! Approximately a thirty minute excursion with fabulous views. You are able to walk around during the entire ride.

Eye of London

Janice_S, Oct 2026
Eye of London was amazing even if you have to get on and off while it is moving. I was a little nervous doing that. Views were great. Wonderful photo opportunities.

Great but terrible time...

Anna, Oct 2026
Great but terrible time getting there. Protests and construction everywhere. But the fast track as lines are very long.

Great Ride in London

George_J, Oct 2026
Take photos, take photos, take photos. Purchase the fast entrance ticket. Take friend. Take pictures!!

Must DO in London. Great experience. Plenty of opportunities to take great videos

Felipe_R, Oct 2026
The views are amazing. You must do at least once in your life. So many amazing views from London. I would do it again

Queues are lengthy but...

Claire_C, Oct 2026
Queues are lengthy but move relatively quickly! Despite booking a particular time slot, it makes no difference!

I am scared of heights...

Chris_L, Oct 2026
I am scared of heights but it was fine. Amazing views. Definitely worth going. I heard sunset is special

It was an experience but...

MaryLove_E, Oct 2026
It was an experience but not great views or pics through glass and glare from sun. Timing your ticket is recommended. But views from Sky Garden (which is free) are much better.

Bird’s Eye View

Karen_D, Oct 2026
Booked for 10:30 ticket. Did not need express ticket that early. POD was clean and the sight of London were fantastic. This was my second go around and would do it again.

Great view

Sharon_B, Sep 2026
Great view of London. Includes commentary about the sites. We got the skip the line ticket and walked right on within 5 minutes.

a complete dud

marilynn_m, Sep 2026
i think the hype is better than the actual experience. so slow and draggy. it's a dud as far as i can see. however, i did enjoy seeing the city at sunset from above.

Book fast pass

Denise_M, Sep 2026
Definitely book the fast pass it’s well worth it we where there on a Saturday and it was very very busy and with the fast pass with skipped right to the front

Iconic experience

Deborah_S, Sep 2026
Such an iconic experience! We had a timed entry but due to weather and being in the area the staff were kind enough to allow and earlier entry.

Top of London

Michelle_S, Sep 2026
A great experience that enables you to view the entire city of London. Descriptions highlighting the various landmarks are provided throughout.

Rowan and Florian

Autumn_E, Sep 2026
Rowan and Florian were great! Rowan was extremely charismatic, kind, and most importantly - knowledgeable! The driver Florian was very safe as well. Stonehenge and Bath are incredible - they don’t need a review!

VIP Access

Paul_V, Sep 2026
We updated our tickets to VIP. Well work the ad Dr ed cost. 7 people vs 20+ and fast pass access. Guide was fun and very knowledgeable.

Unfortunately the London...

Sean_D, Sep 2026
Unfortunately the London Eye was experiencing mechanical issues the day of our four. We were told to Come back in an hour, which we did, but then were advised it still was not fixed and no ETA. I contacted Viator to request a refund, which a promptly received an email confirmation of my request for a full refund, which did advise it could take up to 7 days, which I am within the 7 day window while responding to this review, but seems a little long when they clearly should know if the Eye was running or not.

Very Safe and great spot to take pictures.

Barbara_G, Sep 2026
Great ride! I was worried that the car would wobble but it is very stable and doesn't move at all The scenery is amazing. Good photo shoots

A must see

Debra_G, Sep 2026
Loved it, would recommend to everyone. Great experience for adults and kids. We throughly enjoyed it

Pathetic I’m standing here and I cannot click or get the ticket

Juraira_M, Sep 2026
I couldn’t get the ticket what pathetic thing is this Please send me the ticket back this is absurd.

Great experience

Rodney_A, Sep 2026
It was great. Everything went smoothly and the staff were professional and friendly. The view from the London Eye is fantastic

Okay but go later in trip

Nora_B, Aug 2026
Getting flexible entry was great. It was our first stop when we arrived in London and didn’t really know what we were looking at. We couldn’t hear the speakers.
