TakeStart your day on the Emirates Air-Line Cable Car across the Thames on the all new London cable car connecting the North & South of the famous river. The cabins arrive every 30 seconds. Giving you great views of London over the Thames.

Then take a breathtaking climb over the iconic O2 arena where you can enjoy great views across the city. With a guide on hand to help you along, you will make the 90-minute climb up the blue walkway. Climbers need to be physically fit to use the carabiner that helps them complete the 52m ascent. Once reaching the top, you’ll be rewarded with a 360° panoramic view of London at the top.

The observation wheel of the London Eye turns slowly enough for people to embark while it is moving. A complete turn takes about 30 minutes. Thanks to the construction of the glass capsules on the outer side of the rim, passengers have a great 360° view over London. Many famous landmarks are clearly visible, including the Buckingham Palace, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Houses of Parliament. On a clear day you can see as far as 40 km (25 miles). You could add a food or drink package to your experience. Why not enjoy afternoon tea or champagne whilst seeing the sights of the capital.

London’s newest iconic landmark building is The Shard, designed by Master Architect Renzo Piano. At a height of 1,016ft (310m), the tallest building in Western Europe, The Shard redefines London’s skyline and will be a dynamic symbol of London, recognisable throughout the world.The view from the Shard is situation on floors 68, 69 & 72 and is almost twice the height of any other viewing platform in London. You can see the whole of London with 360° views. Prepare to embark on a multi-sensory journey to 244m (800ft) above one of the greatest cities on earth.

After all that excitement time to relax with a view at Rhodes 24, located atop Tower 42, London’s tallest complete building, Rhodes 24 is the Michelin-starred brainchild of celebrity chef Gary Rhodes. Directly overlooking the Gherkin then out across the South Bank and beyond, Rhodes 24 with its floor to ceiling windows offers an unbeatable position from which to really appreciate the beautiful British capital. The smart, modern décor of the spacious, bright dining room is very much in keeping with the corporate environment of the building. 24 offers traditional British cuisine in the heart of the Capital.
