Come abbiamo valutato St Paul's Cathedral
Il nostro metodo£24 includes the cathedral floor, the crypt, a multimedia guide and the dome galleries. Strong value against London's other big tickets.
The 528-step climb to the Golden Gallery is one of London's great experiences, and the interior is breathtaking.
The nave swallows crowds, so it rarely feels packed. The dome stairs bottleneck late morning.
London's most underrated major ticket. Go at opening, climb the dome first, then take the crypt slowly.

Yes — one of London's most underrated attractions. Book the 4pm slot for the calmest visit and allow 2-3 hours to do the Churchill Museum justice.
