Show on map
The Coca-Cola London Eye was built in the centre of London on the bank of the river Thames in 2000 and is the world’s largest cantilevered observation wheel. The height of the wheel is 135 meters and it holds 32 capsules, each with the capacity to take in 25 people. Each rotation takes up 30 minutes (and there are audio guides available), after which the visitors can stop by the 4D experience, a short film with special effects. Kids aged under 4 are admitted free of charge and family tickets are available (for 4 persons). Advanced booking on the official website is recommended.
The London Eye River Cruise along the Thames starts here. Private Capsules can be booked for both social and corporate events for parties of 3-25 people. The working hours change with season, please check them on the official website.
