Windsor Castle

Windsor Castle is open from 10am to 4:14pm or till 5:15pm depending on the season.

Upgraded to the champagne package.   Arnie was our guide and we had a fun trip with a small group of people from Poland, Canada and Luxembourg 

London Eye Fast Track Tickets

Fully recommend, excellent activities to do and great booked in advance to fast track entry and lowers the price overall to get a combo deal 

Combo (Save up to 44%): Madame Tussauds + London Eye Tickets

Super bequem bereits von zu Hause buchen. Würde ich jedem empfehlen. Sonst können die Warteschlangen ganz schön lang sein oder man kommt erst gar nicht rein.  Hat alles prima funktioniert und der Tower ist wirklich sehr interessant und sehenswert. 

Tower of London Tickets with Access to the Crown Jewels

Super convenient to book from home. I would recommend it to anyone. Otherwise the queues can be quite long or you don't even get in.  Everything worked great and the tower is really very interesting and worth seeing.

We had a wonderful guide who explained so well about the architectural features and symbols throughout the cathedral.  She also engaged our 9 year old grandson who enjoyed the visit as much as we did. We loved the words in Latin at the centre of the cathedral placed by Wren's son with the meaning "if you want an epitaph to Sir Christopher Wren, simply look around you!" It was lovely to pause on the hour to reflect that St Paul's is a place of worship and to say The Lord's Prayer together in our mother tongues.

St Paul’s Cathedral Admission Tickets

Great organisatiom, everything was on time, Bus was good, traveling was smooth, Bus driver was extra kind and helpfull, and we have received food package!

The exhibit. Made it memorable as I got to see some of my favourite actors and got to see one of  the Cray twins as well as jack the ripper  as well as the extraterrestrial et  and got to rock with jimi Hendrix and bob Marley 

Madame Tussauds Tickets

To be honest I was with my friends from my country they was surprised. He loved everything what we se it inside. We recommend to everyone to visit one time Madame Tussauds.
