Want to take hubbie on the eye but not sure if better in day or night! Any one been and got advice? How much can you actually see, is it worth it?

Thanks

Really glad you asked this because I was wondering that too!

By day, no question.

All that's of interest by night is town beneath you and the road lights leading into and out of Sheffield. You can see how much certain roads, the A61 for example bend round but once you've seen it the ride becomes a bore (and I should know; I was on it for 1/2 hour for one of my daughter's birthday. By the 20th revolution I told the guys to bring us down!).

In the daytime it's much better and the view - and the greenery - is most impressive. Also, there are shoppers beneath your feet and a general buzz in town.

And the VIP capsule is little better than the rest although the floor is see-through - again, more use during a daytime ride than at night.

definately by day

I've done both and yes I think daytime is better (although it was good seeing all the Christmas lights in the dark). Try and choose a clear non-windy day if you can :P

I went on the Sheffield eye in the dark and I really enjoyed it. It was nice and peaceful. I would go on it again in the day though.

How much is it to ride this thing.....:)

I think its £6.50 for adults and £1.00 for children,although you get a 10% discount if you book it online.

I went on it with my and my ex, £13 for both of us, and tbh it was <removed> lol, went round like 4 times, this was in day so dunno if its better at night
