Each rotation takes 30 mins, meaning a capsule travels at a stately 26cm per second, or 0.9km (0.6 miles) per hour - twice as fast as a tortoise sprinting; allowing passengers to step on and off without the wheel having to stop.

The London Eye takes around 30-35 minutes. When you enter and leave your capsule the Eye wont stop, its not too difficult to get off as it isnt moving too fast. But of course if there is someone with a disability then of course they will stop it for them to get on. Hope this helps, and belows some more info.

You can be on it for around 20-25 minutes, depending on how long it takes for others to get on/off. If a buggy or wheelchair gets on, they will stop it til they are on. Just admire the views, take some photos & have a great day out. I've been twice, so I know it's great.

I believe it was 30 minutes and it stops at all the major attractions you can see from each piont, its really cool. And yes it does stop to let you on and off. Make sure you have a camera or even binoculars because there is a lot to see.

It takes 30minsfor one rotation! As to whether it stops the answer is no! But it goes slow enough for people to get on and off so it does feel like it is stopping!!

One revolution takes 30 mins. Normally they don't stop it if you get off, but if you have difficulty walking or are in a wheelchair or something they will.

Never timed how long it took, but it does move very slow. It does not stop, but it moves so slow that it is no problem getting on or off.
