Reviews of The Merlin Entertainments London Eye

Access in London review of The Merlin Entertainments London Eye

Reviewed by: Access in London
The London Eye is a huge ferris wheel near Westminster Bridge. Erected to mark the Millennium, it is some 135m high and dominates the London skyline. Admission charge. It closes for a month in the New Year for essential maintenance. The ticket office is in the corner of County Hall, and there is a badly signed ramp to bypass the +6 steps at the front. You have to go south towards Chicheley Street alongside the County Hall building. At busy times, most people pre-book a timed slot for their trip. This can be done either by phone or on-line. From the riverside walk, the approach to the Eye is up a ramp about 40m long. For chair users the staff will stop the wheel and slot in a little cover plate to make getting in easier. Each capsule takes up to thirty people. There's a central seat, but most people stand up and move around during the flight to see the views on different sides. There's adequate room for a chair user. There are two wheelchair toilets (Door width 80cm Side transfer distance 90cm) inside the ticket office, to the left as you come in from the ramped entrance, opposite Costa Coffee.

Get a whistle-stop tour of London's famous landmarks on the world's largest observation wheel. On a clear day you can see for miles as the huge wheel slowly turns, even as far as Windsor Castle! Eye spy has never been so exciting as you soar above Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, St Paul's Cathedral and much more! Children under 4 are free, although they must have a free ticket.
