Michael AmannAugust 19, 2018This was a fun experience even though I did expect it to be a little bit scarier than it ended up to be! The rides are entirely optional so you can skip them if you're not into that kind of thing!
Chris January 26, 2015Book in advance and save money, it's fun, a bit scary at some parts, sometimes cheesy, some of the actors have very strong accent but in the end it's interesting in his own way!- Alex CoopeMay 31, 2011It was much better than I anticipated it to be! The 5D ride was amazing although it would benefit if the guns actually worked. The tour was fun and the other rides were great! Worth the time and money
Ezryn ZarofJanuary 5, 2017It's a great place to bring the older kids to because they make history fun. Note that the actors tend to talk quite fast, hence it can be a little difficult to understand them at times.
Marco ErminiOctober 27, 2018Really fun and worth the price when bundled with other attractions. If you have teenager children it is a must. Take care that they need to be taller than 1.40 m to experience all the rides.
Will BelfordSeptember 18, 2013One of the places I loved at London! Really felt like travelling back in time! I didn't appreciate the awful smell of the london dungeons though. All in all, it was perfect and seriously funny!
Chelsea BradleyMay 8, 2015Definitely worth the price. Some of the "characters" are projections, but it's still awesome. A great cast! Jack the Ripper went after me, though. That part of old London can get dicey! :)
George XAugust 9, 2015Great attraction for kids. NOT for adults. Too childish. Not scary at all. Great for children up to 13years old to learn about London's history. Even the fast-falling-down ride at the end is childish.
AshleyJune 22, 2013So much fun! Not that scary and the drop is not a big drop at all and you dont get wet really! Totally worth it but definitely buy your tickets ahead of time online to avoid the queue.
Elizabeth LeeNovember 21, 2014Get ur education about London's bloody and violent history here, while being frightened for entertainment value. Jack the Ripper, the Black Plague, Sweeney Todd and Guy Fawkes are featured here.
Kristin LodermeierOctober 11, 2013One of the highlights of our trip. Found it more cheesy than scary but what do you expect? The rides are a nice mix-in to the acted out scenes. Look for coupons!
Daria AvetisovaFebruary 22, 2014I loved it! Jack ripper was the best! You really get to sea the history with your own eyes! And the smells help lol It was totally worth it!
MichaelJuly 3, 2013Great tour. Really enjoyable, a lot of information that is interesting. Book online, you will likely still have to wait in a queue, but it moves relatively quickly.
Nicole T.April 9, 2014So scary and fun! Love it. Especially the trip with the boats and Jack the Ripper! Love also the super fun ending!!! Must-visit place!!- ZaraFebruary 5, 2015Fun and scary half day out. Jack the Ripper exhibit is very good. Book online in advance for good discounts. Great for groups.
Stefania ManiFebruary 28, 2015Expensive but really enjoyable! If you book online at least 24h before your visit you get 20% off. The best part is at the end :)- Dave MarshallSeptember 19, 2015Onsite cafe and gifts hop makes for some interesting and novel giftware. Actors and actresses help to make this venue great for kids and adults.
The TelegraphJuly 13, 2012Some people say the scariest thing here is the queue but, once you get in, there are plenty of sudden jolts and frights on hand to startle and amuse you.
Chris MeadFebruary 28, 2013The new London Dungeon is opening at County Hall on 1st March, and they've just released this scary fun King Henry VIII infographic to go with it! http://bit.ly/London_Dungeon
Nassos ConquesoFebruary 23, 2017Perfect experience! Somewhat scary! Great effort to construct all this scenery and organize all these actors
Anna TrifonidouFebruary 11, 2016It is a tourist attraction but a very nice one! You learn some of London's history in a different way!!
DonnieJuly 21, 2013Getting used to the new location. Preferred the old one seemed a lot less walking. The water ride broke midway and given how wet we got (esp if you sit towards the back) I may skip that next time.
ChaffroOctober 31, 2012Remember the feeling you'd get in your stomach when you heard that advert that starts with a guy saying "This is Labrinth"? This place offers a similar experience, but slightly more pleasant.
Liam PyeApril 20, 2014Good value with 2-for-1 voucher. The actors are great, more fun than scary. You'll get wet on the boat ride!
Hiten PatelJuly 19, 2011Nice experience, but more to do with history than actually having an adventure. Laser ride was great, apart from useless guns, and the 'hanging' at the end was the best part.- Dave MarshallSeptember 19, 2015Book online for discounts, or check for multibuy offers with coupon sites for the best rates. No reliable wifi onsite
Maria BlOctober 10, 2014If you are a tourist in London, it is definitely a must visit and I fully recommend it!!
Monica GustavsenAugust 18, 2017Very fin, but a bit scary. IT is smart to buy tickets in advanced to avoid Que
Kwstis SpyrousDecember 12, 2018Good actors!!!!If you visit London, you have to visit this attraction!!!
Yv ZoApril 27, 2017I was so looking forward to come back to the london dungeon but I was very disappointed to learn that this once spectacular museum became a mini theater I was bored to tears
D34NO TimmonsSeptember 24, 2011Been here twice and I love it! we waited 2hours but it was worth it although the hanging part at the end, the flash didn't work so our pics never came out! Bit disappointed oh well
Style by StylismOctober 15, 2011This amusement slash horror house never ceases to scare me. I've been many times and its enjoyable in a weird way. Def worth checking out during Halloween.
Alex FilipMarch 19, 2011Nice experience, worth trying it! It'z both fun, scary and creepy. Save the 2h queue by purchasing tickets online or at your hotel reception.- Yv ZoApril 27, 2017Its like a mini theater with different stages and actors, if you are expecting a museum, its not. 😝
- Collette DalbyAugust 23, 2014Great way to teach kids about history and very very fun! No matter what age!
- ehaylesOctober 2, 2012It is more exciting for children than adults so expect it to be more frightening for them than you! Still a nice day out!
Jayden ChooDecember 23, 2013Jack the Ripper scene is the Best Part! No regret to visit London Dungeon. :)❤️
Spicy ShikaAugust 7, 2016Tour is worth your Money... The darkness and loud sounds are scary to the little kids..

"The detail of the exhibits are fantastic. Chat to Andreas, one of the staff/host on each floor. He's really lovely and knowledgeable. The shop is great for presents."

"Amazing place and it’s a must if you visit London! You can spend hours & hours inside so plan well if you are time poor. Worth to hire the audio as it can be really crowded to get too close."
Maria - 8.8
"The ship is huge and like a mini maze, different levels, the best parts are the deck and the captain cabin"
