5.00Had a most fantastic experience with James as tour guide. He is such a wonderful person he encouraged us when we were doubting ourselves stayed close by ensuring we were managing ok and gave so much information about the building etc around us. I think that he is a great person and hope that you truly appreciate his dedication to the job.

5.00Absolutely loved this! Myself and my friend had been wanting to do this for years! So glad we finally did! We didn't book as we went on the Go City pass which saved us a fortune! The views when we got to the top were amazing but very windy! We had about 20 minutes/half an hour at the top but worth every penny! Our guide was brilliant. The gentleman at the reception was very helpful too. There wasn't many of us at the time we went but it seemed a perfect size group. If you love London views and a different view point then this is perfect!
