Hotel Leisure Break

Description

Enjoy quality time together on this romantic escape. Stand together with your heads in the clouds and witness breath-taking, panoramic views over the whole of London from the top of the tallest tower in Western Europe.

Piercing the skies above London, The Shard has quickly become a towering and iconic symbol amongst the city landscape. Standing a colossal height of 1,016 feet (310 meters) tall, The Shard, with its dramatic glass splinter-like form, has redefined the Capital’s skyline with its unique design.

The Shard will give you the opportunity to see London like never before. Take in unobstructed views of London’s most famous sights including Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, the Gherkin, the London Eye, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.
The visits start at ground level, as you step into the super-smooth kaleidoscopic lift and travel at high-speed up to the triple-height viewing platform on level 69. From here you can explore the sweeping views, set out on three spacious levels, with floor-to-ceiling windows on every side of the building to allow visitors the chance to gaze out at landmarks up to 40 miles away.

Walk all the way around floors 68 and 69, before heading up to the open-air Skydeck on level 72 - a viewing platform offering 360-degree views across the capital and beyond from a vantage point 802 feet (244 metres) above street level, where you can both enjoy a glass of champagne and gaze up to the very top of the building as the shards of glass that form the spire disappear into the sky. Exposed to the elements, you can take in the atmosphere and sounds of the bustling city below, before returning back to the ground floor.

State-of-the-art interactive touchscreen telescopes enable you to explore the views in greater detail, with information about 200 landmarks and alternative day, night, sunrise and sunset filters. The Shard’s team of knowledgeable Guest Ambassadors are on hand to answer any questions you have and will help bring the view to life.

This is a one-night stay for two people, including breakfast at a premium London hotel, entrance to ‘View from The Shard’ a glass of Champagne each and audio guides in eleven languages.

Please Note:

Your Entrance to the Shard is a fully flexible ticket. This means that you do not need to advise a time for your visit to the Shard, you are free to visit at any time on the date you have selected. At very busy times, you may encounter a short wait before entering.

This is a fun filled short break in the capital with a full-on, adrenaline-fuelled ride of your life on a tip-top RIB jet boat. The skippers will show you just what these babies will do so you'd better be ready for some serious waterborne action.

These rides deliver top sights and the ultimate high-speed speedboat experience on the Thames.

There are two experiences to choose from:

Thames rush, which starts at Westminster Pier, heads down-river on the riverside landmarks, then as we pass beyond Tower Bridge it's full on pedal to the metal.

Thames max, which also starts at Westminster but then after Tower Bridge takes you for a full-on blast to the Thames Barrier, though you do slow momentarily as you pass Greenwich for you to catch your breath and take in the view!

This is a one-night stay for two people, including breakfast at a premium London hotel and tickets for a high speed Thamesjet experience.

Your Thamesjet RIB boat experience departs and returns to Westminster Pier

Up at The O2 is an exhilarating experience which will take you on an uplifting guided expedition over the roof of The O2 via a fabric walkway.
At its steepest point, the walkway has an incline of 28° on the way up and 30° on the way back down and has a slight bounce to it to replicate the surface of the tent. There's a hand rail on the walkway and a balustrade on the observation platform.

Before you climb, you'll meet your Climb Guide who'll take you through everything you need to know and give you a climb suit, shoes (if necessary) and a safety harness. You'll then make your way onto the walkway, via a short set of stairs, or lift, to the base of the tent ready to start your climb.

There is an observation platform at the summit where you can take in spectacular 360° views of London and its many landmarks. Once on the platform you will be able to move freely to enjoy the views before your descent. At all other times, you'll be attached to the climb system on the walkway to keep you safe and your Climb Guide will be nearby to help you and answer any questions.

This is a one-night stay for two people, including breakfast at a premium London hotel, plus tickets for the Up at The O2 experience.
