The London Eye

The iconic landmark in the center of the city of London, on the South Bank looking over the River Thames, is the perfect place to view the skyline. For my 19th birthday I was lucky enough to be able to hire a pod with my friends. We had a tour guide that pointed out the famous buildings, such as Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament and The Shard. Getting to view the city at night was a very memorable experience, the views with all the lights were incredible and breath taking. I would definitely recommend to anyone who gets the chance to go to London to go on the London Eye, night or day.

The Tourists 5

Welcome!

We are The Tourists 5, a bunch of young travelers and aspiring adventurers finding the most unique and best places to visit in the world. Our aim is that by sharing our experiences we may inspire others to see the value in immersing yourself in a new environment or culture or even just taking a well earned break from reality and finding a paradise you never want to leave. We as a group of 5 are from different backgrounds and have varying interests and preferences meaning that this blog is for everyone! There will be an array of posts from short term overseas trips, exploring our current home country of Australia, or us simply admiring a place we are dying to fly to and in the meantime sharing our wanderlust with everyone via out blog. This is us. TheTourists5.
