Pro tips to help you make a pick
Plan to arrive at the London Dungeon early, especially during peak tourist seasons. This gives you ample time to collect tickets, go through security checks, and explore any pre-show exhibits or attractions.
The London Dungeon experience involves walking, standing, and possibly some stair climbing. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes suitable for walking and standing for an extended period.
The London Dungeon creates an immersive atmosphere with dim lighting, special effects, and loud noises. If you're sensitive to darkness, loud noises, or jump scares, consider bringing earplugs or mentally preparing yourself for the experience.
Pay attention to the instructions provided by the London Dungeon staff before entering each show or attraction. They will guide you on safety procedures, where to stand, and what to expect during the experience.
While the London Dungeon provides secure areas to store bags and belongings, it's recommended to keep valuables such as wallets, phones, and cameras secure at all times. Some attractions involve movement and may not be suitable for carrying bulky items.
Consider combining your visit to the London Dungeon with other nearby attractions along the South Bank, such as the London Eye or SEA LIFE London Aquarium, to make the most of your day out in the area.
