South Bank and London Eye: Have a look at London
  • Tip Rating:
  • The London Eye is with a height of 135 meters the highest observation wheel in the world. This very modern construction with its space aged capsules offers you a stunning view at one of the greatest cities in the world. The flight takes about half an hour. Each capsule takes up to 25 persons and unbelievable but true, it doesn't feel like beeing in there with 24 other people. You can walk around, sit down and relax or looking out at the windows and enjoy a wonderful expierience. When you visit London be sure to have this great expierience.

    Tate Modern: The Tate Modern
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you like modern art be sure not to mis this. The place is huge, if you want to see everything you can stay here all day. The good part is also most of the exhibitions are free to visit. On the top floor of the building, in the restaurant, you have a magnificent view over London. Even if you don't like modern art this place is more than worthwhile visiting. The building used to be a power station and was transformed into a museum. The building itself is a real piece of art.
