London Bridge Experience

KidRated’s London Bridge Experience Top Tips:

  • Best for kids & teens: Enjoy getting the fright of your life in the London Tombs
  • Best for parents: Make sure you’re at the right bridge. Not Tower Bridge!
  • Top tip: Definitely don’t book if your kids or you are easily scared

Looking for a spine-tingling adventure in London with your kids? Then the London Bridge Experience and London Tombs is the perfect destination! This thrilling attraction combines history, fun, and a few scares, making it an exciting day out for children and teens.

 

Kids will love the immersive experience as they journey through the history of London Bridge, guided by live actors in period costumes. They’ll hear fascinating stories and learn about the bridge’s dark past, from Roman times to the Victorian era. The interactive elements and engaging storytelling make history come alive.

 

One of the highlights for kids is the special effects and realistic sets that recreate different historical periods. They can explore ancient caves, walk through medieval streets, and even witness the Great Fire of London.

 

For those who enjoy a good scare, the London Bridge Experience includes the London Tombs, a spooky section filled with ghosts and ghouls. While it might be too intense for very young children, older kids and teens will love the thrill of navigating through the eerie passages and encountering creepy characters.

 

The London Bridge Experience also offers family-friendly events and themed activities throughout the year, including a ‘Zombie for a Day’ package where you become part of the action. Check the website for the latest updates and special offers.

 

With its mix of history, adventure, and a touch of spookiness, it’s a fantastic day out for families with older kids.

 

Feeling peckish? After your visit why not take a trip to nearby Borough Market and grab a snack.

I’d definitely come back here again. I like a good scare and enjoy watching scary movies so when I heard about this, I knew I had to give it a go. The best thing about this experience was that not only did it give you a good spook, it was also extremely informative at the same time. And actually, it’s all that more scary that you know it’s all based on real events. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves a bit of dark history.

  • The London Bridge Experience and Tombs is like two attractions combined. The London Bridge Experience (first section) is actors telling gruesome stories. The Tombs is the stuff of nightmares.
  • I was more concerned about the dank smell in the first section and wasn’t worried. In The Tombs I was screaming for my life.
  • Best for teens who like to show how brave they are. I’m too scared to ever do it again!
