What about visiting attractions in peak times? Will it affect the queue time?

Madame Tussauds

Due to the popularity of this attraction especially in peak times such as Bank Holidays and School Holidays this may cause the queue time to be longer than expected. We would advise to arrive as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

I am the purchaser however I am not travelling, will my card be needed on the day?

We require an email from the purchaser advising the new lead name of the person travelling, this person will then be required to sign the documents and present official identification such as a driving license or passport.

Please see our terms and conditions for more details. There may be a admin fee subject to each change. We need at least 72 hours notice.

Can I cancel my booking?
Cancellations cannot be made within 72 hours of your booking date subject to certain packages. Prior to this there will be a 20% cancellation fee and we require all cancellations in writing via email with an explanation why. Please see our terms and conditions for more details.

What happens if I miss my experience?
Unfortunately there is little we can do if the experience has been missed, however we will be happy to investigate further depending on the circumstances. Please note that any action taken would be at the discretion of the supplier. We would require a full explanation in writing via email.

How and when is my credit/debit card charged for my booking?
Full payment is required at time of booking, which is debited at the end of the booking process. When a booking is made via our website the payment is run through Sage Pay payment gateway and then to the merchant bank for authorisation. For some packages, payment is reserved in your account until your booking request is confirmed (the website will advise if your booking is on request). If your chosen package is not available then the reserved payment is cancelled and aborted. This depends on each bank when they will register this transaction and is completely out of our control.

Do I need to provide my AVS/CV2 security code for payment?
Yes definitely. The AVS/CV2 checks can help us protect you against fraud. AVS stands for Address Verification Service and CV2 is the 3 or 4 digit security code found on most cards.  The security code can usually be found on the signature strip on the back of most cards. In most cases the security code is the last 3 digits printed on this signature strip. With American Express cards, the security code is the four digits printed just above the card number. 


How long does a refund take to process?
If you decide to cancel your booking and qualify for a refund, the agreed amount will be issued back to the card purchased with. The refund may take 5-7 working days to process, depending on your bank. Please see our terms and conditions for details on cancelling a booking.

If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to help.
