John Burdis

Had a great time on the climb with my son. We pre-booked but I did see some people turn up and pay with no hassle. By the way, you can also pay for a drink up the top, whilst at reception! Next the safety brief and kit check, which was straight forward and very relaxed from Tom. Then it was onto the climb itself but first a quick stop for a professional photo or two before you set off and half a dozen steps up the slope. Then before you know it, you're at the top and taking in the views. Gotta say, everyone was respectful of each other and not getting in the way of others picture taking. The group being not too large also helps. After about 15 mins, it's off on the descent and then in to check on some pictures that the company took. This being in the obligatory gift shop! We bought two, which you can also download later and that was it. Was it worth it, yes it was and I think we may do a dusk one in the near future!

Very unique experience. Was a super hot day and a decent sized group, but Xavier led us like a champ! Highly recommend upgrading to get a drink at the top. And don't forget your suncream in the summer!!

Fantastic climb with the kids today! Eden was a great guide, very friendly and supportive, kept the boys chatting to motivate them during the climb. Highly recommend the experience and looking forward to going again at a different time of day.

Mawada Reviews

Up at The O2 is a truly unique experience in London and takes around one to one and a half hours from start to finish. The team is extremely punctual and well-organized, with clear time slots that are strictly respected, which makes the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Safety is taken very seriously. You are fully secured with a professional harness, and the overall safety standards are high. The guide, however, was not very friendly, which slightly affected the experience, but thankfully did not take away from how special the activity itself is. Reaching the top gives you stunning views and a completely different perspective of London. The experience feels exclusive and memorable, and the photos you can take from above are absolutely worth it. Bringing a GoPro is highly recommended to capture the moment. They provide shoes and gloves if needed, but it’s better to come prepared. I strongly recommend wearing anti-slip shoes, gloves (especially in cold weather), and a jacket—preferably one with buttons or a zipper. Wind can be strong at the top, so dressing properly makes a big difference. There are restrooms available at the base, but none at the top, so plan accordingly. Overall, it’s a unique, safe, and unforgettable experience that’s definitely worth trying at least once.
