I have been checking London2for1 to see if they would extend their discounts past 5-31-05. I was pleased to find that they have changed the site to www.daysoutguide.co.uk and do have some discounts available through 8-31-05. They are not as great as before but for example you buy one adult ticket to the Tower of London and the second adult ticket is half-price. Gosh, I'll take the difference and buy a little souvenir! Check it out.

Thanks so much for the info. I too have been watching the 2for1 hoping it would be extended. Really appreciate the tip!

BabsB

Nancy45, you are welcome.

Babs,
We are leaving for London in a few days. I went to this website but I cannot find the special that you are referring to.

Please help me find it!

From the home page click on "offers". There is a long list of specials. Most are pretty minor - like 20% off admission. But some are quite good, like 2 for 1.

BabsB

Laurie, Janis is correct, click on offers and scroll down to the bottom where you can click to go to page two. The Tower of London discount is the last one listed. Have fun in London!

Laurie

I found it!
Thank you!

I am reserrecting this thread because the offer(s) is now valid until January 7, 2007.

Terms & Conditions: "The 2-for-1 vouchers are only valid when presented with your train tickets." The site does not indicate which train.

My question to this board is: Would my Gatwick Express or Northern Train ticket suffice?

i am kane-

Thanks for topping this thread! Just in time for my trip later this month. The Tate Britain Voucher for the Holbein exhibit comes in handy.

AFAIK, previous posters have reported Gatwick Express ticket is valid. Some had even used a regular Travelcard as the "train ticket".

Dorothy01

Yes, your Gatwick Express tickets are valid with this offer. We have even used an off-peak one day travel card.

We used our 2 for 1 voucher last Saturday at the Courtauld Institute and were not asked for our train tickets.

Great news! In a city as expensive as London, every discount helps.

Two weeks and counting until we leave for London!

Well if a TravelCard worked i guess a BritRail Pass or LondonPlus Pass could work as well - i wonder.

topping this again.

I used the voucher last week in London for the Holbein in Britain exhibit at the Tate Britain. We were asked to see our train ticket, and we showed them our 1-day Travelcard.

Great way to save a few £ here and there, esp with £ hitting all-time high!

I was able to use the 2 for 1 coupons 10 days ago (middle of Nov.). The Tower of London just took the voucher and gave us the entrance tickets.

Madame Tussaud's did ask to see our 3-day Travel card, and accepted the 2 for 1 coupon.

Topping.

The new offer is out, valid until June 3, 2007.

How does this work? I am taking train in from Bridgend to Paddington Station and will remain in London for 4 days. There are several attractions listed with the 2 for 1 which I am interested in seeing. Do I show the train ticket and give a coupon for each attraction? Meaning, I can keep the ticket to use over and over again with different coupons?

i_am_kane

JamilaZ,

Yes, keep your original train ticket and present it with every 2 for 1 coupon offer to the cashier.

Make sure they give it back to you, though.

I thought you had to show them a ticket (i.e. train with the symbol on it) that was valid for the DAY you're using the 2 for 1 entry.

You can't really reuse the same train ticket for the next day, the day after that, etc.... or can you?

jody

I would have thought you could use the same ticket over several days if it was a return ( round trip) ticket
