Since it was constructed in 1999 to mark the beginning of a new millenium, the London Eye has quickly become one of London’s hottest tourist attractions. Anyone who visits the city must tick this off their bucket list!
What’s it all about?
Each of the London Eye’s 32 capsules can hold up to 25 people and is fully enclosed and air-conditioned, providing a comfortable and safe experience for visitors.
