Which is better: London Pass or London Explorer Pass?
The London Explorer Pass is generally recommended for:
Those who want to go to the attractions with more peace of mind: the pass can be used for up to 60 days. So you can visit one attraction per day, or per week, or however you like.
The London Pass is generally recommended for:
- Who is visiting London for a short period of time (between 1 and 10 days) and wants to make the most of the main paid attractions.
-Those who are willing to visit 2-3 paid attractions per day. The pass is valid for a certain number of consecutive days and there is no limit to the attractions to be visited. So the more attractions you visit, the more advantage you will have (but it can be quite tiring...)
- Who wants the transport option included in the pass. The London Explorer Pass does not offer this possibility.
- Who wants to see Windsor Castle. It is not included in London Explorer Pass.
