London Eye student discount

The London Eye (sometimes referred to as the Millennium Wheel) is a 135m high observation wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames in London. The tallest cantilevered observation wheel in Europe, it’s one of the most popular paid tourist attractions in the UK – over three million people visit it every year.

Though it might not be a good fit for those with a fear of heights, it offers amazing 360-degree views across the city and has been London’s number one visitor experience for over a decade. Each journey lasts around 30 minutes.

Unfortunately, there doesn’t appear to be any student discount available at the moment, but it’s always worth asking when you turn up. Discount has been available in the past for NUS/TOTUM cardholders.
