From the all-new Walk of Legends journey to giving you access to some of the more private areas of the stadium (normally reserved for some of the biggest celebrities in sport and music), you will delve deep into the heart of Wembley like a pro! What’s more, you can enjoy access to the dressing rooms, the press room, players’ tunnel, pitchside, and the iconic Royal Box. Your little sports and entertainment fans won’t be able to contain their excitement.
Hop-on, Hop-off, London Big Bus Tours
If your family is keen to learn about the culture and history of London, then this one is for you. Put the day in your children’s hands and let them take control, as they become mini tour guides for the day and decide where you’ll be heading next in London. If they see something catches their eye as you pass by, you can hop off the bus to explore in an instant. And when you’re ready to see something new, you simply hop back on and continue the tour. It’s a great way to let your children choose where you go as you move through the city.
With the 24-hour ticket, your family can hop on and off the bus as much as you like, whilst getting to enjoy some of London’s most iconic attractions.
