Madame Tussaud's is one of those London places that most Americans have heard of and think are just absolutely no-miss places. In the case of Madame Tussaud's, it is not necessarily true. Don't get me wrong, Tussaud's is a very interesting place, the likes of which are not to be found on this side of the Atlantic without accusations of being a copycat. Maybe I was expecting more, and I know I expected a lot after I saw the

Great Way to Kill an Afternoon
By tzrmkl, 11/27/05
Arriving upon the block of Madam Tussaud's instantly I saw the massive line which stretched an entire city block. I was discouraged immediately, but decided to stick it out, since it was in a nice neighborhood of London, and it was a nice day. After waiting about an hour (less than I expected), we entered into a room full of wax celebreties ...

An Historic Curiosity
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 12/08/04
Madame Tussaud's is the kind of place you have to visit once, but don't necessarily need to return to. Celebrity waxworks are rotated fairly regularly, but once your curiosity is satisfied initially (I just *had* to see the birthplace of the Beatles likenesses from the cover of "Sgt. Pepper"!) there's not much point in going ...

Nice, but expensive
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/04/05
excellent waxworks, and a lot to see, but prices are now (2005) close to $40. U.S., too much for what you get. Without price as a factor, I would rate it much higher.

AWESOME!
By Carol M, 01/23/06
I got my picture taken with Kings and Queens - saw the Beatles - walked the East End where Jack the Ripper was and so many other wonderful people (and places) to see. When I go back again I will definately go back to Madame Tussaud's. It is one of the best places I've seen! Highly recommended

Complete Waste of Time
By mjgrant298, 05/04/08
I went with the wife and was hugely disappointed. First there were very long queues to get into the place, and then you seem to spend most of your time queuing just to see another wax model. The Chamber Live exhibition was the worst thing I have ever visited. You have to pay extra for this and before you enter you are constantly told not to touch ...

Too many missed opportunities
By Ken_McDonald, 02/11/08
The website tended to put me off with too much mystery about what to expect, threats of long queues, unclear pricing and pressure to book a timed arrival slot.
Waxworks were generally excellent, with some exceptions such as Elvis.
The ability to get up close and take photos of one another with the stars was great. Fortunately we had a ...
