The O2 Arena in London is the busiest gig venue in the world. From Katy Perry to Led Zeppelin, all the big stars have performed memorable concerts on its stage.
But the building is famous for more than these musical attractions. The Dome – as the structure is known because of the shape of its roof – is a hotspot for urban mountaineering as well. This means that you can climb the iconic landmark to the top of the viewing platform, reaching 52 m (170 ft).
The adventure starts with you meeting your friendly instructors at the stadium’s base camp. They give you a safety briefing, some useful tips, and answer your questions before you go. Then, you receive the necessary equipment to climb the building. This includes an appropriate suit, harness, and comfortable boots.
Nervous? Don’t be. Your experienced guides are with you every step of the way. More than that, they point out landmarks and share exciting facts about the city, making this tour even more interesting.
Once you reach the top, you can take your time to observe famous spots, such as Greenwich, the Olympic Park, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, Canary Wharf, and The Shard.
The downside of this adventure is that those 90 minutes go by much faster than you’d hope. Luckily, the memories of your experience and of such unique views of London can be remembered forever.
