Meeting Point
Full Description
Ascend to the 72nd floor of The Shard, Western Europe’s tallest viewing platform, and enjoy sweeping panoramic views of London. With a flexible ticket, you can take your time soaking in the cityscape, which stretches up to 40 miles on a clear day.
Step onto the open-air viewing platform for a thrilling experience, or admire the skyline from the comfort of the indoor galleries. Discover London’s history through interactive multimedia displays, or relax with a drink at the champagne bar while taking in the scenery.
The Shard is a striking icon of London’s skyline, designed with sculpted glass facets that incline inward without meeting at the top, allowing the building to “breathe” naturally. Glance upward to see the spires reaching 1,016 feet (310 meters) high, a feat of modern architecture.
Complete your visit with a stop at the boutique, where you can purchase a souvenir photo to remember your experience.

The views from The Shard were nice, but the experience felt overcrowded and rushed. The observation deck was packed with people, making it hard to enjoy the sights. The ticket price felt too high for the experience offered. I expected a more relaxed visit for the cost.

The Shard was one of the highlights of my trip to London! The view from the 72nd floor was breathtaking, offering a panoramic perspective of the entire city. I could spot famous landmarks like the Tower Bridge, London Eye, and St. Paul’s Cathedral from above. The experience was well organized, with helpful staff guiding us. The elevator ride was quick, and the viewing platform was spacious and comfortable. It’s definitely a must visit for anyone looking to see London from a unique angle
