Hi, it's the first time I've visited Madame Tussauds, my wife and my 6-month-old son were with me and I have to say that I was really impressed by how realistic the mannequins are, it was all very nice. In addition to this you also visit the times of the past that it was really super. Then you will see Marvel and finally there is a shop where you will find everything and it is impossible to go home empty-handed. I recommend everyone to visit it because it is a fantastic experience but above all full of famous people and the most important of the United Kingdom I would say. Go all to Madame Tussauds and you won't regret it.

I recently had the pleasure of taking a cruise on the River Thames, and it was an unforgettable experience. The guide was incredibly fun and knowledgeable, making the journey both entertaining and informative. We passed by some of London’s most iconic landmarks, and the guide’s engaging stories brought them to life. The boat was comfortable, and the views from the deck were breathtaking. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, this cruise offers a unique perspective of the city that you won’t want to miss. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore London from a different angle!

I particularly enjoyed the tour of the museum as I had no similar experience and admired the perfection in the construction of the wax models, which resembled real faces. Also the fact that the space and its presentation was done according to themes giving the museum a special character. But what particularly impressed me and will be hard to forget was the ride with the wagons in a row which were rotated in such a way that it would be difficult for a visitor not to see and admire all the wax models.

At Madame Tussauds, capture selfies with over 150 celebrities, explore 14 zones, enter the spooky Chamber of Horrors, and sail through centuries on the Spirit of London.

Board at Westminster, London Eye, Tower, or Greenwich Pier for a one-way sightseeing cruise, enjoy live or audio commentary, comfortable seating, and kids’ activity sheets included.

Combine two must-see attractions in one ticket, saving time, skipping separate bookings, and giving you the freedom to explore London at your own pace.
