During our first visit earlier this year the music section was closed off due to work been carried out. So, we couldn\u2019t resist swinging by considering we were in London. Here\u2019s how our trip went!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Getting In On A Peak Day;<\/span><\/h3>\n

We visited on a Saturday with the FA cup happening at Wembley & there was Little Mix at the o2. It was inevitable it was going to be busy. We pre-booked the week prior and managed to book into the 14:15 time slot but manage to get inside an hour earlier. The queue was huge outside but went down relatively rapidly.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

The Music Section:<\/span><\/h3>\n

It was a lot smaller than I had predicted & had very few artists in, to be honest. I am unsure as to whether the the entire section was open or if there was any more. However, the few artists they had looked unbelievable particularly Little Mix. I was blown away by how incredible they looked. The set pieces within this section were also good. But I do wish it was a little more like Blackpool\u2019s music section.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

Spirit of London:<\/span><\/h3>\n

It seemed that a lot of the ride wasn\u2019t working this visit which was sad. But if you didn\u2019t know the said broken animatronics\/scenery moved you wouldn\u2019t noticed they were off or broke. I adore this dark ride and it\u2019s probably one of my favourites in the UK. It has the full package to it like smell pods, special effects, and audio on board & within the ride too. It\u2019s just fab. I love the whole historical aspect of going through the years and reliving it whilst sitting in the iconic black cab. If you haven\u2019t visited before you must for this attraction alone.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

Overall Attraction:<\/span><\/h3>\n

With any Madame Tussaud\u2019s I always really enjoy them. But I think after this visit this has to be my favourite out of the two we have in the UK. There\u2019s such a wide range of things to experience inside such as the dark ride & 4D cinema. It\u2019s an experience well worth doing. There are so many wax figures that don\u2019t feature in the Blackpool version as well. It\u2019s an adequate duration too\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n
