We had so much fun here! It’s not just wax figures; the Star Wars and Marvel sections are amazing, and the 4D cinema was a great bonus. The 'Spirit of London' taxi ride was a total surprise and really enjoyable. Great for selfies and a good laugh. Definitely book online to save money!

Amazing experience! The wax figures look so real — it felt like meeting actual celebrities. The Marvel and Star Wars sections were fantastic, and the 4D show was a great surprise. Staff were friendly, everything was well-organized, and there were plenty of photo opportunities. Definitely worth a visit!
Experiences Reviews
Great experience! It's more than just the wax figures, it's really interactive with lots of variety. We enjoyed the taxi ride through London as well as the Avengers 4D cinema experience. Would recommend, and at the gift shop you can also get £10 tickets to the London Eye, Shrek Experience or London Dungeon, bargain!
An attraction that should be part of the City Tour wherein the mannequins made up of Wax of Celebrities being set-up, seems so real. There's Royal Balcony Experience, Star Wars Experience, Spirit of London Ride, Marvels 4D Experience Movie & Chamber of Horrors Experience as part of the Ticket to enjoy inside. Takes approximately 2 hours time to cover-up. Shop near the exit to purchase items. Snacks shop available inside.
Family-friendly Reviews
You have to do this, especially if you have kids, but adults will love it just as much. Make sure you book though. We booked, which helped, and it was the first session and still lined up. It's popular obviously. The people at the very front of the line didn't book, thus had to wait ages. Still, the line moved quickly once open. Get the London Pass app, and buy a London pass. It's worth it.
So glad we added this to our trip in London! A lot of cool and mostly lifelike wax figures to take photos with. Fun for family. We got the London pass and this was included. Accessible via public transport which is great. Definitely recommend purchasing tickets and securing your time slot in advance. Took us about 2 1/2 hrs for overall walk-through.
