Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch-Me
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by Tempus_Fugit

Advantages: 'meet & touch' celebrities
Disadvantages: expensive, small, crowded, not enough to see

I first encountered Madame Tussauds Waxwork in London when I was working as a tourist guide many moons ago and had the good fortune (or rather misfortune) to take groups of tourists to this attraction. It's fun the first couple of times but then you start to resent the place with a passion. Luckily the job only lasted a few years but it left me with a bitter taste in my mouth regarding this particular London attraction and no desire to ever set foot ... Read review

Dip Me In Wax
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by Andy.mack

Advantages: Amazing attention to detail, worth at least one visit.
Disadvantages: The price, All the added extras you could spend £50 each easily

...decided that a trip to Madame Tussauds was in order. It had proved to be a day where we couldn’t decide what to do. Having been at the Dungeons earlier in the day we were going to go to The Millennium Eye. Due to a low cloud covering over London we decided it’d be a waste of money so we headed for Madame Tussauds instead. As it comes included in my Theme Park annual pass was just a bonus. If you’ve not heard of Madame Tussauds it’s a large museum ... Read review

Looking up Kylie's skirt
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by atticusuk

Advantages: As it says in the title
Disadvantages: Getting caught and being asked to leave

...into the pockets of the Madame Taussauds group and so yesterday we headed off for the ankle biters first ever visit to the waxworks. I had vague memories of visiting the place many years ago with an American girlfriend who shouted with glee in best JAP (Jewish American Princess) fashion at all of the Royal Family wax works. For those who have been living under a rock Madame Taussauds wax works is one of the most visited London attractions and it ... Read review

The Wack-xy Races
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by WormThatTurned

Advantages: Photo Opportunities, Visit just the once.
Disadvantages: Queuing, Bustle inside, Coffee prices.

...I visited the World famous Madame Tussauds which I have wanted to do for many years. Madame Tussauds is one of London's and indeed the country's leading attractions - did it live up to expectations or was it as fake as the dummies ? A brief history ...... Madame Tussaud, born Marie Grosholt in Strasbourg, was born in 1761 and became a courtier in the famous court of Versailles in her early years. Being a member of the aristocracy in the turbulent ...

I TOUCHED BECKHAMS BITS n PIECES
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by emu128

Advantages: Great experience, fun
Disadvantages: Pricey, queuing can be long

...'Madame Tussauds' along Marylebone Road. Madame Tussauds is a popular tourist attraction in London and I had never visited it. I was with my Dad and sisters and they too seemed quite interested in the attraction so we all visited... WHAT IS MADAME TUSSAUDS? Madame Tussauds is a museum where visitors can socialise with their famous idols, stars and heroes, the only thing is though all the people who are infact models are made of wax! All the ...

I FELT LINFORDS LUNCHBOX
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by KarmababyUK

Advantages: fun for all the family
Disadvantages: maybe a little expensive

...My all time favourite was Madame Tussards and I loved it so much the first time that I visited that I volunteered to assist on all trips there and therefor visited Tussards 5 times in one month!!! Madame Tussards is based on Baker Street just a small walk from Baker St tube station. The wax work images inside where so life like that I half expected Kylie to burst in to song or Tony Blair to start making a political speech! The best thing is ... Read review

Enjoyable but just too short
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by holty

Advantages: Great photo opportuniies
Disadvantages: Expensive and smaller than expected

We arrived at the waxworks at about 10.45 in the morning - there was no queue so we were able to walk straight in. The queue when we left at about 12.00 was a different matter!! I would definately advise anyone planning a visit to Tussauds to either arrive early or purchase your tickets in advance through the internet, doing this yo are able to get in through a different entrance, thus jumping the queues. Upon passing through the entrance, we were ... Read review

I thought he was real
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by y2krosebuddie

Advantages: fascinating
Disadvantages: crowded but maybe not always

I went to Madame Tussauds one Bank Holiday last year. I actually visited London to go to the Zoo, but as that was dissapointing and it started to rain, decided to go to Madame Tussauds instead. Because it was a Bank Holiday (and raining) the queues were long right up the street and round the corner, so it is advisable to go maybe at a quieter time, but it was quite entertaining in the queue watching the world go by, and also there were samplers ...

Madame Tussauds and the Rest Of My London Trip
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by ms19

Advantages: good shopping, fun weekend, good attractions
Disadvantages: none

...I decided to go to Madame Tussaud's and by paying with the hostel I got a discount. I got the underground here which is easy to get around then arrived. It was a long queue but because I had paid for the tickets I went right in and that was it. It was excellent seeing famous people in such life like was work models, probably the nearest I will get to any of them. Some of the models speak and I got my picture taken with many. This is never too overcrowded ... Read review

a day at the waxworks anyone
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by weebagpuss

Advantages: wax works are almost lifelike, well presented
Disadvantages: hot, crowded, expensive

...and seeing a few of Madame Tussauds prompted me to write this opinion. Unlike the other comments I have read about Madame Tussauds, I wasn't overly impressed. Maybe this was because it was the last trip I went on with my ex-boyfriend, and I was working out that day how best to finish with him? Anyway, Madame Tussauds was his idea - to me, it all seems a bit 'fake', I suppose being an historian, I am more interested in going to see some real history ... Read review

ALL THE STARS UNDER ONE ROOF
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by Louise90

Advantages: The whole thing
Disadvantages: The crowds of people

...in with the price of Madame Tussaud's. The Planetarium you have to pay seperately to get in to, but it's still extremely good! Sitting in your seat, you will be looking up to the massive dome shaped ceiling where you will be seeing the sky at night with a story of the stars and constolations. This is very interesting and educational. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Right, now down to the crunch! It's not all that cheap, but you ... Read review

Meet all the famous people in the world
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by Robertpowles

Advantages: The stars you will meet. The cab ride
Disadvantages: The price. The crowds

Madame Tussauds is the one place where you can meet all the famous stars, poloticians, sings, and all the rest all under one roof! Having visited Madame Tussauds, I was left dumfounded at the sheer beauty of some of these people! The work that goes into making these wax models is absolutely amazing! You can meet anybody from Frank Bruno, to Lady Diana, to Sir David Attenborough. They are all here. All placed appropriately in their designated spots, ... Read review

The Wax Works - Stress Busting Guide!
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by AndrePaul

Advantages: National Rail 2for1 Offer!
Disadvantages: Running out of Camera Battery!

...recent (and first) trip to Madame Tussauds could have been all of these things had I not been previously tipped off about a few stress busting ideas. I now share these ideas with anyone thinking of attending the world famous house of wax. I hope they are of some use. The first thing you need to do when waking up on the morning of your visit - is have a good wash, pluck, shave, trim - do your hair, fix that make-up and find your best outfit! ... Read review

Who will you have a close encounter with
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by agapi_mou

Advantages: So life-like, you think they're real!!
Disadvantages: The queue.

MADAME TUSSAUD'S, MARYLEBONE ROAD, LONDON NW1 - (NEAREST TUBE IS BAKER STREET ON THE BAKERLOO LINE) - Madame Tussaud's has got to be one of the most amazing places I have ever visited! It isn't a museum as such, but more of an interactive exhibit. I was able to get right up close to my favourite celebrities. They are so life-like, it is trully uncanny. They've recently unveilled Chris Tarrant, who most of you will recognise from ITV's "Who Wants ... Read review

Madame Tussards, London
Review of Madame Tussauds, London by kittyjem

Advantages: Interesting, Fun, Lots to see
Disadvantages: Very Expensive

I went to this attraction on Saturday because the Rock Circus has shut down and I wanted to go and see some wax! When we approached the attraction on Marylebone Street I was plesently suprised there wan't much of a queue. How wrong could I be! I got inside and had to queue for about an hour in and out of windy ropes. Once I reachy the top near the pay counter I was told the prices for entry and was absolutely shocked. It was £24.99 per adult! As ... Read review
