  • My husband and I attended on a weekday (Tuesday) to the Dungeons and it was epic! From the moment you enter, right through to the wonderful oldy style bar. Every corner/room was a surprise and had us jumping or screaching (mainly me). The actors and actresses are phenomenal- and the interactive play was also amazing. I really enjoyed being locked in a cage and being part of a witness story! The whole experience was brilliant and well worth every penny!
  • Had such a brilliant time at the London Dungeon with my 8-year-old daughter! We both absolutely loved it. I wasn’t expecting it to be quite as immersive as it was, but the sets, actors and atmosphere really brought the experience to life and made us feel like we were part of the story. It was exciting, fun and surprisingly engaging from start to finish. It was definitely scary at times, with plenty of jump scares, so personally I wouldn’t recommend taking a child younger than 8. Overall, we thought it was fantastic and definitely worth the money.
  • Top cast! It was the best history lecture about London that I’ve ever had. It was entertaining, funny and a bit spooky. Loved the combination of it and I want to visit again (hopefully getting out alive a second time).
  • Fantastic time, great acting and also great atomospheric sets and sound lighting. Lots of humour delivered over 70 Minutes of running time.
  • Really enjoyed it...
  • One of the best experiences I’ve had :)
