Virtual London - The best place to see London online

Today, the London Eye has become, quite literally, the way the world sees London. It is one of the most spectacular and popular attractions in the world, drawing visitors from far and wide. Its success is unquestionable, as is its popularity with tourists and Londoners alike. Yet it was conceived, designed and built against considerable odds. Of all the remarkable facts about the London Eye, perhaps the most astonishing is that it was ever built at all. It is one of London's few attractions that enjoys a significant portion of repeat business, say no more.

The London Eye River Cruise Experience departs conveniently from the London Eye pier located next to the London Eye itself. Highlights of the 40 minute circular cruise include St Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, Tower of London, HMS Belfast, Shakespeare's Globe, Tate Modern and the Millennium bridge. Includes live commentary and a souvenir guide map (map in seven languages). Suitable in all weather as the boat has both covered and sun deck seating. Both decks are accessible for wheelchair users. Toilets are available onboard. Foreign language audio commentary is available in French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Italian, Russian and Japanese. T-loops system available. The boats leave hourly from 10:45am, the last Cruise sets off at 6:45pm (October to March - 4.45pm)Porters English Restaurant
