The View from The Shard
Experience the incredible sights from the viewing platform at The Shard, standing at twice the height of any other viewing platform in the city. The stunning views of the world’s greatest city span an unbelievable 40 mile (64km) radius, standing at an impressive 1,016ft or 310 metres high.The lift travels at six metres per second, meaning you travel from Level 1 to Level 68 in about 60 seconds! The main viewing gallery on Level 69 is a spectacular three storeys high, flooded with light in the daytime and the perfect place to see the glittering lights of London at night. For an even higher experience, venture to the partially outdoor viewing gallery on Level 72. Exposing yourself to the elements at this breathtaking height; you’ll be surrounded by the famous ‘shards’ of glass that form the top of The Shard.

Your Driver ( Mr .Ian ) Have been very helpful can you passed a massage we thinking of him.
In the down side: sometime you take time to reply the question. But in other hand I understand that you’re busy and we asked something that you not do on the tour.”
“Before the trip to England I’m very concerned because our first trip and many people ( 6 of us). After talk to Nok , she very good advice and very helpful make us feel more relaxed and confidence even we didn’t decide yet to use her service . When we arrived to England all the service was perfect. The driver pick us up on time and helping with the luggage and advice a lot for the trip. You and your Company is full with service mind. You make customer feel like the family instead of business. I wish you company get more successful and we will use your service again for sure.
In the down side I don’t have it because it better more than we expected.”
