Walk above London on a guided Alexandra Palace rooftop experience, with sweeping city views and stories of the palace’s heritage.

About this tour

After gearing up at the famous Rose Window Balcony with a full-body harness and safety equipment, follow your guide to the Summit platform beside the Angel of Plenty statue. The 60-minute outdoor experience combines elevated city views with stories that bring Alexandra Palace to life. Lockers are available for small valuables, and bags can be left in storage boxes at reception. Phones are permitted only in a Summit secure phone pouch; cameras are not allowed, though a dedicated photography system is available on site.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.94 from 213 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in London
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.7. Top 6% in London means it ranks in the top 6% of tours in London by this score.
