Ride the fastest and highest lift in Britain
The fun starts before you even get to The Shard's viewing platform. Enjoy a record-breaking, super speedy lift journey to the top, which makes its smooth and swift ascent in just 6m per second. Prepare for your ears to pop!
Be the highest Champagne consumer in the city
Combine a cheeky tipple with some spectacular heights. London's highest Champagne bar can be found on floor 69, which you'll have access to with your London Pass. Take your pick from enormous bottles of Bolly and all kinds of creative cocktails. It's thirsty work breaking records, after all.
Toast the glorious views with a cheeky tipple
Be the closest person to the clouds in Britain...
...okay apart from, say, skydivers. After you've explored The Shard's indoor viewing gallery, head up to the open-air deck on the 72nd floor. Here, you'll be right amongst the pointy bits of glass that literally poke into the clouds. Feel the wispy breeze drifting through and take an obligatory selfie at the highest point in London.

Enjoy the longest-range views from a London landmark
As if seeing London in its entirety wasn't enough – you can also see allll the way to Windsor Castle on a clear day! Grab your binoculars, keep your lenses peeled for the outline of the castle walls, and wave to the King.
Get a record-breaking View from the Loo
No the sightseeing doesn't stop when you nip to the loo – even the toilets are a thrilling experience. They're 244m above ground (so, don't worry, no-one can see you) and boast impressive floor-to-ceiling windows! They've also been honoured with the prestigious accolade of being 'the most Instagrammable loos in town' so don't miss your chance to visit.
