The 15 Best Attraction Tickets in England

131 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.0 average  ·  from $19.42

Timed entry has quietly taken over England’s big attractions, and the good slots go early. These 15 tickets are compared on price, what the queue is like at each, and which ones are genuinely worth skipping the line for.

1.Tower of London and Crown Jewels Exhibition Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 6,677 reviews · 1 day (approx.) · from $49.44Our pick

Get into the Tower of London and Crown Jewels, plus a Yeoman Warder tour. See ravens, prisoners, and the Koh-i-Noor.

“Would highly recommend booking this via Viator. It was cheaper than booking direct with the Tower of London. Our admission time was 10am and we did the 10.45 Yeomans tour which was a fabulous 45mins walk around and history overview. The tower offer an audio guide for an extra cost but we didn’t feel like we needed it. We allowed 2-3 hours for this which was about right with our 8 year old.”

A 1-day admission ticket to Alton Towers Resort with 50+ rides, major roller coasters, and CBeebies Land for kids, plus easy mobile entry.

“Well we just spent £300 on a holiday that didn't happen!! BEWARE THESE TICKETS ARE NOT FOR THE WHOLE PARK! In no place did it say that the adult section of the park will not be open on this day. We checked the website and Viator and the tickets themselves making sure they were real. Once we reached the gates we were notified that on this day only the kid's sections will be open. And we were two adults. So you can imagine how awkward it was for us, just two adults and all the other people's kids around us. In this day and age.. that was just wrong. We…”

London Pass covers 100+ top sights for one price, including Tower Bridge. Best for careful planners who handle timed reservations.

“With this card we saved a lot of money by visiting as many places of interests listed in the brochure as possible. Start early and come back late but don’t forget but don’t forget to have some cash in hand for food because not all shops take credit cards. The 2-day pass would be sufficient if one plans the time properly.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,720 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $98.72

See Buckingham Palace State Rooms and the Changing of the Guard with a guided stroll, top viewing spots, and an audio-guided visit.

“Natalie was fantastic. Her knowledge and sense of humor was the best part of the trip. We saw the changing of the horse guards though we were supposed to see the changing of the foot guards. Had to cancel that because London was setting up for a marathon. But Natalie took us during our walking tour to where the horses switch just in case. And they did perform. She also kept a few of us from stepping in -well you know what - as we continued the walk. As for the Buckingham Palace tour, which she had nothing to do with other than get us in the door, I was…”
