The general opinion of Fodorites with knowledge of London is that the pass, for the average traveler, is not worth the high price because it includes many things the average traveler in town for a short period would ever do or go to.

Many London museums are still free and schemes like the 2 for 1 offer, which allows two tickets for the price of one at nearly every paying admission place you'll go is a much better deal.

Now that is not to say that a few tourists may benefit from the pass but be very sure you will be using enough of the things covered to warrant a pass and again many places participate in the 2 for 1 scheme.

It's crap.

Consider the following attractions:

Tate Britain
Tate Modern
Imperial War Museum
National Gallery
National Portrait Gallery
V&A Museum
British Museum
British Library
National Maritime Museum

The COMBINED cost of admission for those attractions, which could take three or four days, is NOTHING.

So why get a time-limited pass that gains admission only to secondary attractions or gets you admission to first level attractions for more than it would cost to go a la carte? The six-zone travelcard included with the London Pass is useless - nearly every attraction you'd want to attend in London is within Zones 1 and 2.

Plus, if you're travelling with at least one other person, you can use the days out guide 2for1 offers PalQ linked above and thus save one admission price for every two people in your group for: (1) the Tower, (2) Hampton Court Palace, (3) Cabinet War Rooms, (4) too many others to list.

yep, what they said.

Thanks! Appreciate it !

I disagree, I used the pass last February and certainly got my monies worth out of it. I was however, touring on my own because my husband was working, so I didn't have any long lunches or take as long visiting some places as when touring with another person. I just wandered around on my own when I reached a place covered by my pass I could slip in for a quick visit, if I found it interesting I stayed, if not I did a quick walk through and was on my way. I found the London Pass a great convenience along with my Tube pass. So it's a matter of to each his own.

It's a matter of preference, some find it convenient and some

Sorry I forgot to clarify, I did not use the London Pass travel card option for travel as that is a very expensive option for the tube/buses. I used an Oyster pass available at any tube/train station.
