Madame Tussauds London is the original home of the world's most famous wax attraction. Siruated on its current location since 1884, it boasts the largest collection of figures worldwide, including original figures made by Madame Tussaud herself and her mentor Dr. Philippe Curtius along with grisly artefacts dating back to the French Revolution.
A highlight of the visit is 'The Spirit of London' taxi ride through 400 years of London's history complete with moving animatronic wax figures that tell the story of London's exceptional past.
Created in close collaboration with Disney and Lucasfilm, Star Wars™ at Madame Tussauds is a unique, immersive experience included in the ticket price and starring extraordinarily life-like wax figures of the favourite heroes and villains of Star Wars™ Episodes I-VI.
The figures will appear in authentic walk-in sets inspired by key scenes from the movies. Dynamic special effects will add to the immersion, as fans step right into, and star in, some of the most iconic moments in film history.
