Visiting the abbey was memorable. Although there was a big crowd there was plenty of space to move around. I noticed that people were respectful many sitting quietly just reflecting or contemplating and listening to the audio. So much to see and absorb. Wonderful to see our own Ernrst Rutherford with a plaque on the floor. We also enjoyed the afternoon tea in the cafe.

I liked : - how easy it was to buy a ticket, - how easy it was to enter the Abbey, - the ease of use of the audioguide, which is also very well documented. I did regret that we weren't informed that a service was taking place during the chosen time slot, which prevented us from discovering the nave from its best angles. All in all, a great experience!

We loved our visit to St. Paul's Cathedral!! Don't forget to bring your paper tickets, their system can not read the Head Out virtual tickets! Virtual tickets were fine at Westminster. Go to the top of St. Paul's!...best views! The 2nd tier has a wonderful explanation of Paul's ministry matching the paintings on the ceiling. Loved it!!

    I loved the London Eye because you could see all over London with a bird's eye view. Unfortunately, my timing was a little off and I was unable to ride the boat on the Thames.. I had thought I could ride the boat back to London Eye, but due to a concert, I was unable to do that.

    The queue is exceptionally well organized; if you arrive around the time on tyour ticket, you will inmediately be let in. The crowd is a bit much, making walking thorugh the narrow spaces sometimes complicated and not leaving enough time to view special corners like the tombs of Queens Mary and Elizabeth. The audioguide is ok, but could be better if it dealt more in depth with historic questions (perhaps and additional chapter for those interested?) Walking into the abbey is like walking into history itself and being able to relieve it from the present. All this is a bit lost because of the size of the crowd and the way they sometimes behave (as an example: I saw a family happily walk over the memorial stone for Churchill at the exit, not because the were not paying attention to where they went, but because they made a point out of it and filmed each and every member doing it)

    The ease of ordering tickets on line, not standing at a booth, being able to schedule my visit on line and getting a discount. Everything done online. The people who I dealt with at each stop were so wonderful. I truly appreciate that. My experience was an excellent one.
