Nice ambience You have a wonder around and get to see sculptures of famous people. A place I would ideally visit just once but for what it's worth, it's pretty star studded and great for day outs. I would recommend as a one in a lifetime experience! Nicely lit, room to wander about and enjoy the moment. About 25 mins walk from Euston station, it's right adjacent to the baker street underground ...

100% worth seeing! We did a combo ticket with the London Eye. I definitely recommend fast track. We had so much fun doing photo ops with celebrities. Plus they have a Disney like ride in a London taxi, for the Spirit of London, which was very enjoyable. Also included a 4D Marvel movie. It’s good entertainment for the money.

Fantastic, will do again. No photo restrictions, and little busy waiting to access for photos but we'll worth it. Some fantastic waxworks and a great experience on the taxi ride. Takes around 2 hours to complete with a great shop at the end. Toilets and cafe along the way.
