ArcelorMittal Orbit

This was a great experience for a thirteen year old to do. The shrieks on the way down we're the best review. The views are stunning, the structure is amazing. The staff on the day were absolutely brilliant. Plenty of lovely meandering around before and after with good choices of places for ice creams and coffee

I've been to zip world London a couple of times now, I always enjoy going to the top. I love the views you get of central London and canary wharf! The real attraction here is the slide! It's very fun going down the slide, it's not scary when you go down. It's £19 for one person on the slide including a booking fee. Overall, a solid experience! Highly recommend

Great views from the observation deck of London. We also went down the Helix slide, or there are 455 steps down if you prefer to walk. A great attraction in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park no wait to get in and no wait on the Helix slide. Well worth the entrance fee.

I booked the slide for my daughter and I, booking in advance. We arrived in plenty of time and there was around a ten to fifteen minute wait to check in, with only one chap on his own manning the desk. They handily wrote times down on a wrist band for your booked slot. (more on that later). There are some free lockers available which is handy. We took the lift up and as we had plenty of time we utilised the higher viewing platform first- this allows some magnificent views across the London skyline. We then went to the slide itself, for what we thought was perfect timing a short time before our booked slot. So it was mildly annoying they were just allowing anyone to go on a first come first served basis, with people going ahead of us who were meant to be 20 minutes or more after us. The staff at the slide never once looked at anyone's time slot or even asked. This meant we had quite a wait of wasted time which was a shame. However, the slide itself was really good fun and pretty fast. I was expecting to be underwhelmed but we both enjoyed it and I would do it again if in the area.

Zip World London, set at the iconic ArcelorMittal Orbit in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, offers a thrilling and utterly unique way to see the capital. Combining high-adrenaline adventure with an exceptional urban backdrop, it’s a bold addition to London’s roster of attractions. The zip wire itself is the tallest in the capital, launching from a height of 80 metres. The build-up is part of the drama: ascending the structure and stepping into the launch platform atop the ArcelorMittal Orbit, your eyes are treated to panoramic views across East London, including Canary Wharf, The Shard, and even Wembley on a clear day. Then—off you go. It’s a rapid descent (reaching speeds of up to 30mph), exhilarating but controlled, gliding over parkland and Olympic landmarks below. The experience lasts just under a minute, but it’s packed with adrenaline. It’s suitable for most ages (minimum height and weight limits apply), and the staff are extremely professional, helpful, and safety-focused—reassuring if you’re a first-timer. While it's not for the faint-hearted, the ride is smoother than one might expect, and the thrill is more joyful than terrifying. It's perfect for those wanting a new perspective on London or to challenge themselves with a city-based adventure.
