Is it better to ride London Eye day or night?

It's best to play it by ear and go on a day (or evening) when you are there. Day or night is chalk and cheese.........you can see everything clearly during daylight but not at night, however, London at night is twinkly and lovely. If this is your first visit go up in the day light hours.


What is the difference between skip the line and fast track?

Skip-the-line (also called fast-track or priority or reserved entry) tickets that let you book a specific date/time slot are almost always worth getting and are easy to buy online before you travel. Reserving your ticket in advance also ensures that you won't be shut out by daily entry limits.
