Madame Tussauds London
About Madame Tussauds London
Madame Tussauds is a selfie-packed adventure through pop culture, perfect for kids, teens and star-struck grown-ups. Snap pics with Marvel heroes, royals and celebs, ride through London history, and enjoy 4D fun. It’s touristy, yes—but also a full-on, crowd-pleasing family day out.
Top tip from the KidRated Team:
Don’t miss the Alien escape room if you’ve got brave older kids!
Quick Inspiration
Great for kids aged 7+, especially selfie-loving teens. Younger ones will enjoy Marvel and Star Wars, but skip the spookier bits like the Chamber of Horrors.
– Snapping selfies with celebs, sports stars, royals and movie icons
– The Spirit of London taxi ride through 400 years of London history
– Marvel Hall and the 4D cinema experience (big hit with superhero fans)
– The Alien Escape experience (for braver, older kids)
– Star Wars stage sets that make you feel like you’ve stepped onto the Death Star
Yes, there’s a small café selling hot drinks, sandwiches, snacks and sweet treats. It’s a decent pit stop after all that posing.
You can’t eat in the attraction itself, but bring your own snacks to eat outside or in nearby Regent’s Park.
Mostly, yes. There’s step-free access via the dedicated entrance and lifts throughout the building. Wheelchair users must book a slot in advance due to capacity limits, and there’s a dedicated accessibility team on hand.
Not really, most of it is light-hearted fun. The Chamber of Horrors and Alien Escape areas are intense and might not suit younger or more sensitive kids. Good news: you can easily skip those parts.
Around 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on how many selfies you take and whether you do the extras like Alien Escape or the Marvel 4D show.
Under 16s need to be accompanied by an adult, so make it a family day.
