This turquoise and white ride towers an enormous 70m into the air and is the tallest mobile ride ever to feature in the UK and Europe. It was a huge success at the Southbank Centre where it made its debut in the summer 2012.
The Starflyer has attracted considerable media interest since its recent debut and has become one of the most photographed rides of recent years.
Walking over the Westminster bridge, we had great views of the House of Parliaments on the left side and the London eye on the other side. Initially, the London eye's ride was on my "must-do" list for London. However, when I was looking at the speed of its movement and the long line-up, I went for the other option instead. We saw this carnival that was right across from the London eye, and they had this flying swing for only 7 pounds and no wait time!
