Arrived just in time to catch the last guided tour of the Cathedral. Guide super knowledgeable and made things interesting with some humourous snippets mixed in. He took us to see all of the notable parts of the church and explained them clearly. Much better than listening to an audio on headphones!

Visited 20th December. Took the tour given by the volunteers. Though there are free audio guides in your chosen language. Interesting historic facts shared about the construction of St Pauls, life and history. Beautiful mosiac ceilings. Saw the Harry Potter stairs. Refreshments tasty. Unfortunately, not able to extend tickets to an open ticket to enable a return visit within 12 months from date of initial visit.

I really enjoyed that the crowd was not overwhelming while being able to walk around the cathedral. It allowed me to tap into the history and get a feel for the cathedral. The architecture is very beautiful. Lastly, the customer service was wonderful. It took about an hour for us to go through and soak up the history. Would definitely recommend.

Explore Sir Christopher Wren’s masterpiece, St. Paul's Cathedral, which has been a place of Christian worship for over 1400 years.

Enjoy this 2-hour multilingual audio-guided tour of the Cathedral, and marvel at the Baroque architecture and the Byzantine-like mosaic ceilings.

The audio tour was fantastic. Every room covered and historical architectural themes gave variety. Highlights were the galleries and the most intricate mosaic ceiling.

Its imposing dome brings to mind that of St. Peter's in Rome, while the colonnade and grand staircase hint at the beauty of the interior nave, which envelops and captivates you with its whiteness and solemnity.

Having undergone many repairs and reconstructions, it still stands tall.

The awe-inspiring architecture

Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, St. Paul's Cathedral features impressive Baroque-style architecture with majestic ceilings. Its world-famous dome, the 2nd largest dome in the world, is an iconic feature of the London skyline. Enjoy the Cathedral's awe-inspiring interior, and uncover fascinating stories about its history. Then visit the famous Whispering Gallery with its unique acoustics. Continue to the Stone Gallery, then the Golden Gallery atop the dome for a photo opportunity of the breathtaking panoramic views across London. Visit the crypt which is the resting place for famous Britons such as Lord Admiral Nelson, the Duke of Wellington, and Sir Christopher Wren.
