The pods on the London Eye

It was supposed to be temporary, but this huge wheel has become a permanently popular attraction.  It’s not cheap, but it is a great way to see London from a different angle.  We once booked a Champagne Flight and as we were the only ones booked at that time, we had a pod to ourselves and a full bottle to drink!  The Eye is at the front of County Hall.  Nearest tubes: Westminster, Embankment or Waterloo.   This is an extract from our free London City Guide.
