Jack JenkinsAugust 19, 2013You need to pre-book online, otherwise the queue will inevitably be two hours long in the summer, even if you arrive at say 10.30am.
Buy tickets online in advance, so you can skip the queue
Asmina ✨August 29, 2012It's highly recommended to go as early as possible or go later in the afternoon. The queue is already very long at 11 am! + there is NO student reduction :(
