Madam Tussaud's

What's Madame Tussaud's like? Would an 8 and 12 year old enjoy or would it just be a load of statues 😂😂 ? Very expensive to get in and with tesco club card vouchers, seems the entrance queues are long. Thank you

I don't think my 9 year olds would know who many of the people are. I remember enjoying it when I was about 16

I thought it was dreadful sorry. Crap models of largely second rate people no longer in the public eye - Colonel Gaddafi - just why? Massive crowds around the one or two models your dcs might like selfies with.

I didn't really rate it either..

It's always packed, went earlier in the year with dd age 11, she didn't know who lots of the people were, she enjoyed the star wars bit & the 4d film, the rest was a bit meh!
We have merlin passes so it did t cost us anything & you get to jump the queue, if I had paid & queued I would have been very disappointed

Worst attraction I've ever been to.

It was crap. So bad it was laughable. And I took my 13/10/8yr old in Feb.

Totally disorganised and shabby.

Don't bother. There are so many other brilliant things to do!

Yep - worst thing we have ever been to. It was 3 or 4 years ago and mine still talk about how shit it was.

I loved it !

WyfOfBathe · 29/05/2017 21:36

I loved it! I went a couple of years ago with a 16 year old relative who loved it as well. Your kids might like it better in a few years (say when they're 12 & 16) and can recognise more figures.

Thanks everyone will give it a miss until they are older, its a lot of money to waste!

My kids loved it at 8 and 6.

We went to the Blackpool one last year which was more British based celebs.
