London Cable Car: Soar Over the Thames

Get ready to glide 90m above the River Thames in this mesmerising cable car experience. Check London out from a very different perspective – this is travelling around the city with a twist!

The London Cable Car boasts stunning aerial views over the River Thames and the London skyline, including Canary Wharf, St. Paul’s Cathedral, The O2, and more. 

The view over the River Thames is especially lovely at sunset, when London is bathed in golden hues. There are night flights after 7PM, where you can soar over the skyline and see the bright city lights. Feel free to bring a mini picnic and soft drinks along for the ride. 

This is the UK’s first urban cable car. Gondolas arrive every 30 seconds and carry up to 10 people, with the journey taking around 10 minutes each way. 

The London Cable Car crosses the River Thames between the Greenwich Peninsula and the Royal Docks, and it’s well connected to the rest of the TfL network. It's fun for tourists and locals alike. 

Adjacent to the Greenwich Peninsula Terminal at the London Cable Car Experience, you can learn about the interesting history of the cable car and explore the Teddy Workshop and Selfie Factory.
