Not that good

Was really looking forward to our trip up the Shard but the experience was rather underwhelming. The booking mentioned a digital photo package and a panoramic guide. The digital photo seemed to be offered to everyone on the queue so it didn’t seem particularly unique but most disappointing was that there was no panoramic guide which would have been great to see what the various landmarks were around London. Such a shame

It was a lovely experience

The view was amazing!

Very organised and very interesting

Greatly enjoyed our “aerial” view. Very informative too. Highly organised and lift speed mindblowing!

Thames cruise

Sandwiches tasted like they had been frozen cakes were little hard

Wonderful gift

The experience was really special, and very easy to book. But we were extremely surprised that we were asked to pay a top up fee! This was a gift and I'm sure our donor did not expect that we would need to pay extra to access the Shard! Nor was any explanation at all given as to why we were required to pay extra in order to claim our gift!
