See London like never before with views from the tallest building in the UK! The Shard has redefined the capital’s skyline with its one-of-a-kind design.
Take in all the views and sights with a completely clear eyeline, such as Tower Bridge, the Gherkin, the Tower of London, St. Paul’s Cathedral, the London Eye, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.
This interactive and modern experience begins with a high-speed kaleidoscopic lift all the way up to level 69. From here, for the next 3 levels, there are floor-to-ceiling windows on every side of the building allowing visitors the chance to see landmarks up to 40 miles away.
Then head up to the open-air Skydeck on level 72, with 360-degree views across London and beyond from a vantage point of 802 feet above street level.
Having made your way to the top of The Shard, you’ll continue the high life with a visit to the Novotel London Bridge for a scrumptious afternoon tea. Typically, you’ll be served an indulgent selection of savoury finger sandwiches, an array of delicious cakes and of course the high tea classic of scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream.
To top off this dining indulgence, you’ll enjoy a splendid pot of tea!

This has to be the Perfect Gift for any couple in the Universe!
How could anyone not love a fab Afternoon Tea with a French twist, followed by the very best views of London from the 70th floor of one of the Nation's Iconic buildings? And all on a sunny day in July........
We were lucky with the weather which gave us the chance to have our Afternoon Tea outside so that we could people-watch whilst over-eating cake, plus we had amazingly clear views of everything that London represents.
Our Afternoon Tea was a little unusual for aficionados of this traditional treat: it had a Croque Monsieur instead of cucumber sandwiches. Personally, a way better experience (I don't get Croque Monsieur at home!). The tea was really relaxed and the staff made everything really easy and polite. My other half is from Brazil and the concept of Afternoon Tea is very English and quaint, so everyone was happy..
After eating far too much, we strolled slowly to The Shard (5 minutes from Hay's Gallery where the Cafe Rouge is located).
The Shard is a unique experience and incredibly professionally managed. 14 million visitors a year nowadays and a massive London attraction in itself. It's easy to forget that there are lots of luxury apartments in the building where people live, as well as restaurants and a 5 star hotel. The vision and ambition behind such a building is truly extraordinary.
There are a number of slightly different levels in the Shard from where to view London. There are cocktail bars, ice cream concessions and sometimes live music up there as well as the extraordinary panoramic views. It can become a little crowded with people sticking to the glass to soak up the vista, but be patient and you will be able to see every bit of London that you really want to see. Viewing immense buildings from the roof is a unique experience so take your time and take it all in.
Oh, and on our way out a quick visit to the loo revealed a 69th floor-to-ceiling window overlooking London! This might put a few people off!!
All-in-all a great afternoon out and something I recommend to everyone looking for a gift for a couple.
Top Tip
Go to the toilet on the 69th floor, it has a great view of the city!
