Up at The O2 is an exhilarating experience which will take you on an uplifting guided expedition over the roof of The O2 via a fabric walkway. Suspended 2m above the surface of The O2 arena's tent canvas, the walkway is 52m above ground level and 350m long. At its steepest point the walkway has an incline of 28° on the way up and 30° on the way back down and has a slight bounce to it to replicate the surface of the tent. There's a hand rail on the walkway and a balustrade on the observation platform. Before you climb, you'll meet your Climb Guide who'll take you through everything you need to know and give you a climb suit, shoes and a safety harness. You'll then make your way onto the walkway, via a short set of stairs, ready to start your adventure. There is an observation platform at the summit where you can take in spectacular 360° views of London and its many landmarks. Once on the platform you will be able to move freely to enjoy the views before your descent.

Die Buckingham Palace State Rooms bilden das Herz des Palastes und sind mit einigen der größten Schätze aus der königlichen Sammlung ausgestattet - Gemälde von Rembrandt, Rubens, Poussin und Canaletto; Skulpturen von Canova; ausgewählte Arbeiten von Sèvres Porzellan; und einige der begehrtesten englischen und französischen Möbel. Der Garten Der Garten des Palastes, der als "ummauerte Oase mitten in London" beschrieben wird, beherbergt dreißig verschiedene Vogelarten und mehr als 350 verschiedene Wildblumen, von denen einige äußerst selten sind. Auf dem Pfad entlang der Südseite des Gartens hat man einen herrlichen Blick auf die Westfassade des Palastes und den berühmten See.
