And the wheel is operational throughout the year; the times vary according to season. Therefore we recommend that you make a reservation in advance. The slow rotation of the 32 capsule wheel takes approximately 30 minutes and gives you an ever changing perspective of London. Capsules are bookable for special occasions and amazingly can each accommodate 28 people! You can even get married in the London eye! They are ideal for spending time with family and friends and you can even arrange to dine in private in the seclusion of a capsule.
The Wheel towers over the Thames opposite the Houses of Parliament. On a clear day you can see up to 25 miles away.
