How long should I spend at Madame Tussauds London?

On average, visitors spend around 1.5 to 2.5 hours exploring the exhibits. This gives you enough time to see the wax figures, take photos, and engage in interactive experiences.

Suppose you prefer to spend ample time at each exhibit or plan to participate in additional activities such as the Marvel Super Heroes 4D experience. In that case, allocating more time for your visit is recommended. Additionally, it is always advisable to check the current attractions and plan your schedule accordingly, ensuring you have enough time to enjoy the museum fully.

1-2 hours

If you're short on time or just want a light stroll, a 1-2 hour visit is perfect. Rush through the main exhibits like Music, A-List Party, and Marvel Super Heroes 4D (separate ticket required). Snap quick photos with your favorite celebs and historical figures, like the Royals or sporting legends. This whistle-stop tour won't allow for much lingering, but it's a great way to get a taste of the Tussauds magic.

Whats inside Madame Tussauds London?

3 hours

For a more relaxed pace, take 2-3 hours to appreciate the wax figures and sets. Take your time at popular areas like Spirit of London Taxi Ride and Bollywood. Participate in interactive elements like the Spirit of London quiz, and learn some fun facts about the wax figures. This is a good option for families with young children or those with moderate interest.

4+ hours

For the ultimate Madame Tussauds devotee, plan a 4+ hour adventure. Go behind the scenes with a paid tour (offered on select days) and discover the secrets of wax sculpting. Participate in workshops or special events to truly get hands-on. Dedicate time to specific sections like Fashion or Historical Heroes, and lose yourself in the stories they tell. Remember, Madame Tussauds is a world to be explored, so take your time and enjoy the journey!
