What you'll do

London's highest viewing platform is a must-visit for a truly impressive view of central London and beyond. The Shard View is simply like no other! Standing at 309.9 meters high and made up of an impressive 11,000 glass panels, The Shard is undoubtedly the most striking modern building in London's skyline.

Since opening in 2013, it's become a must-visit for Londoners and visitors alike, offering unparalleled views across the city from its 72nd-floor viewing deck. Ascend to the top and spend as much time as you wish admiring the city. From the Skydeck, you can get an incredible bird's-eye view of some of the city's most famous attractions and on a clear day, you can see up to 40 miles into the distance.
