The special effects create an immersive experience of Hawkins for the audience. The play can be considered as episode zero, a great addition to the series. The actors brought the characters alive in a marvelous way, and all the sounds and music gave the whole experience this eerie feeling very fitting with the story. A must see for every Stranger Things fan! If you have not seen the series yet, this is also a great way to start.

Amazing experience. Didn't feel that you were moving. No anxiety at all. And Im an anxious person with heights usually. Would highly recommend going at night.

Clear directions for finding the bus. We took the 7-hour package, which included about 1.5 hours for the trip there, 4 hours at the studio, and 1.5 hours for the trip back. That was enough time to visit the studio. We left after 3.5 hours, having taken lots of photos, listened to the audio guide, and seen absolutely everything! It was easy to find the bus to take us back.

It was a really cool feeling to be in the Tower Bridge. The view up there is breathtaking. The photos I took from being up in the tower was beautiful. I felt like I could really take London in . It was really amazing (a bit nerve wracking too) to walk across the glass floor and that for me that was the highlight. Seeing London from that height was such a unique experience. Definitely worth visiting

Beautiful building and excellent guidance via the headset. Very impressive to see who is buried there. We also enjoyed a delicious cup of tea in the small restaurant. Highly recommended!
