We were able to go right in, no crowd which was good. I just did not find the experience very exciting
Really well managed. Lovely staff. Gift shop at the end isnt expensive either. Well worth the experience. Making memories
Once there, the entrance is on the lower floor (guards by the station entrance kindly assisted us). The QR code gets you through the gates and once in, there's only 1 way all the way up.
We were lucky with the weather to appreciate the views of London.

Thank you for your review! We're pleased to hear that the entry process was smooth and that the station staff were able to assist you. It's great to know you found the QR code access straightforward and enjoyed the journey up.
We're especially glad the weather was on your side, allowing you to take in the spectacular views of London at their best. Thank you for visiting, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable experience!
The queue to enter was really short with hardly any wait time. The lifts to the different floors were super quick. The views were spectacular. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was so worth it. It’s a must do activity if you’re exploring the capital.
It’s frighteningly high up with glorious views look for Chris he was very informative and even helped us with Tube directions to head home
Fabulous 360 degree views of London! Easy access to entry point (used google naps to get tobthe locstion. Entryway is on the lower level behind the escalators. Had to ask for directions as it was not obvious on the ticket or google maps).
Was really looking forward to getting some sunset pictures , but unfortunately the glass was too dirty ,

Great view from a crowded observation deck with an overpriced bar. ……………………………………. ………………………………….. .
Enjoyable.
Not terribly crowded.
Bartender(s) were very amiable. A good drink selection.
It will be even better when the construction/renovations are done.
First time coming to The Shard, I had a good time taking pictures and seeing the view. I recommend it.
It was amazing View I loved when you first come in they Take your pictures and you can purchase at the end ..We bought drinks 🍸 bit pricey but worth every penny also the toilets 🚻 Have a great scenery view 😀!! I won't spoil it ! You'll love it we came for my daughter 16th birthday 🎂.. Will definitely come again .

We’re honoured you chose us for your daughter’s 16th birthday and are thrilled it made the day special. We look forward to welcoming you again for another memorable experience.
So even though the weather forecast was good for the day I'd booked to go up the Shard it was actually cloudy and freezing cold. I did enjoy the hour or so I spent there though. The cost of the ticket was almost covered by the champagne voucher I received. Also got a £5 retail voucher and actually bought two things cos was embarrassed to just pay a £1 for a magnet. Everyone was very friendly and of course due to not being able to see anything I got a free pass for a future visit. I was surprised how small it was and thought there could be more seating but overall all good, despite the zero visibility!!
Response from Host, Mar 2026

It’s wonderful that our team’s friendliness, the complimentary vouchers, and the free return pass helped make the day more enjoyable, even with limited visibility. We appreciate your feedback regarding seating and the size of the viewing area. We hope your next visit offers the stunning views you were hoping for.
Bday celebration and a tick off the bucket list
A wonderful and amazing experience made more enjoyable by Chris and co tour guide.
Views on the 72 floor were great
Would strongly recommend it but ensure it’s a clear day makes all the difference.
Excellent views of London from up high. This time went after dark to view London by night and all lit up.
It was an amazing view from the top of the tower and it was easy to find and very organised trip and the staff were very helpful and friendly and very organised

If you’ve done the London eye you will get the same sort of skyline pictures
Whilst I’m glad I did the experience I’ wouldn’t do it again as I feel and it’s just my opinion that it’s way overpriced .
