Benefits of the London Pass
So why fork out for the London Pass, you ask? Because if you’re staying for a few days and want to tick as many places off your ‘must see’ list as you can, the London Pass can work out to be the cheapest way of doing it.
Essentially you are buying your entry passes in bulk, at a greatly reduced price compared to the gate prices at each attraction.
You simply pay one fixed price for the London Pass of your choice (one, two, three or six days, with passes available for adults and cheaper passes for kids). You can then visit as many participating attractions you like on that day, all for free! That means you’re getting admission worth up to £80 per day for adults and £45 per day for kids, at a fraction of the cost.
The more places you visit using your pass, the better value you are getting – but you can only use the London Pass once at each attraction, and multi-day passes are valid for consecutive days.
Other benefits include:
- Skip the queues with fast track entry at some attractions, such as St Paul’s Cathedral, Windsor Castle, London Zoo and Tower of London.
- The London Pass is valid for 12 months, so you can buy it on sale and use it any time within a year.
- Free 120+ page guidebook to take with you on your sightseeing adventures.
- Access to over 30 additional special offers, on everything from sightseeing and eating to shopping and currency exchanges.
- Free public transport when you purchase a London Pass with Travel.
- 100% money back guarantee.
However, if you’re only planning to visit one particular attraction, or you’re wanting to visit places that aren’t covered by the London Pass, then you’re best bet is to check out individual offers for that particular place. We’ve found deals available at a number of London attractions, many of which aren’t available with the London Pass.
