The cathedral was beautiful. Ticketing was easy but did not realize until after we purchased them that you had to print the email to present to the ticketing desk. It was a bit confusing because we received tickets to scan with our confirmation but kept reading we had to print it. I think if the directions explained why we had to print the ticket it would avoid some confusion. Luckily they can print them there if you email the confirmation to them at the desk.

St Paul’s Cathedral asked me to forward the confirmation email to their email address before issuing the Admission Tickets. It took around 15 minutes to wait for them to receive the forwarded confirmation email and another 3 minutes to issue the tickets.

The cathedral is very beautiful and there was a free guided tour. The tour was led by volunteers. It was very nice. About tickets, when we were accepted, we had to send the email from Headout to the cathedral so they could print out in paper form. The entrance tickets had to be in paper form. I was at the hotel and I don't have a printer and I didn't know. I didn't think it was good because it can happen that there are customers who don't have internet. I find better that Headout send the emails with the reservation also to the cathedral. I had to stay on the site and the email took time to arrive. Otherwise everything was fine.

As the Tower and Tower Bridge are close together, a morning and afternoon combination of the two sights is a good idea. We had planned 2 hours for the Tower with two children (aged 7 and 10), which was adequate. We spent the whole afternoon at the Tower. Especially in Tower Bridge, the tour through the museum and the engine room is very entertaining for the children with an accompanying activity.

The tickets were easy to purchase, we chose a dual ticket option with a reduction for seniors. At both places, the staff was very flexible allowing us to enter early. 2 to 3 hours in the Tower is required as there is so much to see. The audio guide is very worthwhile, Beefeater guide attracts large number. Our trip to Tower Bridge was fascinating, worth visiting the engine room, very interesting.

It was very interesting and the staff were helpful but i wasn't in a tour group and my info device stopped working. It would be great if the Abbey was more like a modern museum with written information, but apparently the King doesn't fancy it.

The online ticket had to printed. Service was good but not a handy thing. I don't carry a printer on holiday. And I book online and expect to have an entry with the digital ticket to St Paul's

I've been to Westminister Abbey three times now, and I'm fairly certain, this will be my last time. The first two times I went, we bought tickets at the ticket office the same day, went inside and leisurely moved throughout the Abbey with our own printed guide. The second time much the same happened. This last time, although we booked our tickets for the time that your site insisted was one of the least crowded (Tuesday at 9:30 am.), our movement through the Abbey, especially at the beginning, was hampered by a claustrophobic crowd of people who also had to move with us. The Audio Guide was just bad. Hardly anything was included on it, and it was often difficult to discern which number to press, so I ended up not even seeing Queen Elizabeth I's tomb. Also, my partner and I both went looking for Anne of Cleaves tomb, which the guide said was near Richard II's tomb, and simply couldn't find it. I don't know why the Abbey can't do what other tourist places do, even religious ones, and simply put up small plaques at important sites, perhaps with a barcode to link to a fuller description. Of course, Westminister Abbey is in itself astounding, even when it's crammed with people, but, since we paid so very much to get in to see the place, it would have been nice if the actual visit could have been more pleasant.

The quire area was beautiful. We loved exploring the crypts and stained glass. We found it very crowded and restrictive because there was a mass in progress.

The Abbey is full of history & beautiful art. It is too overwhelming to describe. There are no words. I loved the accessibility to all of the historical stories & items. It gave me goosebumps when everyone paused & prayed. Such a magical moment & experience.

Having purchased the ticket in italy, on site they made problems because it was written in Italian. At access they had no scanner to display the information. After my insistence they let me through, printing me a new ticket of their own.

St Paul's is wonderfool piece of rebeliation of the architect and I enjoyed the visit. Especially dome. The stairs are quite difficult (narrow and high number of it). We had a bit problem with the electronic ticket but we were not the first and not the last I suppose (we had to let them print so do it before visit). There was not a lot of people so we had time and good oporutnity to explore everything.

The Whispering Gallery

Perched 30 meters above the nave, this circular gallery crafted by Sir Christopher Wren provides breathtaking views of the cathedral's grand interior and hosts a remarkable acoustic marvel. Here, whispered words travel effortlessly across the curvature, allowing you to experience a fascinating auditory phenomenon as your softest utterances echo clearly from one side to the other.

The Nave

Stretching 247 feet long, the nave is adorned with finely crafted wooden seating and Corinthian pilasters. Saucer-shaped domes crown each bay, while clerestory windows encased in lunettes illuminate the spacious interior.

The Chapels

The cathedral's sacred spaces include chapels steeped in history and individuality. The Chapel of St. Michael and St. George in the crypt pays tribute to the British Empire's servants. Adjacent, the American Memorial Chapel commemorates World War II's fallen American soldiers and is adorned with a poignant stained glass creation by Lawrence Lee.

The Crypt

Echoing the cathedral's layout above, this expansive crypt is the UK's largest. It hosts the tombs of Admiral Lord Nelson, the Duke of Wellington, and architect, Sir Christopher Wren. The crypt features models of current and pre-fire cathedrals and accommodates 350 guests for events at its western end.

The Oculus

Situated in the crypt's former Treasury, the Oculus offers a 270° film experience that animates 1,400 years of the cathedral's history. This feature is a highlight of the Interpretation Project, designed to enrich visitor engagement.

The West Front

The cathedral's majestic west front showcases a central portico with paired Corinthian columns beneath a triangular pediment, flanked by twin bell towers with pedimented upper stages and spires. Constructed from Portland stone with a lead-clad dome, it commands the London skyline, complemented by Wren's surrounding spires.
