Cheap things to do with kids in London this half term – and how to find discounted attraction tickets

WITH the half-term already around the corner, it’s time to start planning a fun family day out.

London has many attractions to keep the kids entertained, and we’ve even found tickets to the most popular attractions on sale with up to 45 per cent off.

The savings are available on combo tickets on Attractiontickets.com.

The number of attractions you visit will determine how much you save, but every combo includes a visit to Madame Tussauds and the London Eye.

The deals are on combo, trios and five Merlin London attractions.

For instance, the Madame Tussauds and London Eye combo ticket is currently available for £60 for adults and £54 for children, which saves you 32 per cent compared to what you would pay at the door.

You could even add one access to SEA LIFE London Aquarium and save 42 per cent.

The discounted tickets cost £80 for adults and £72 for children.

For the same price, you could also change your third attraction to London Dungeons or DreamWorks: Shrek’s Adventure.

You can also book five attractions with the ‘Magical London Pass’ for £130 for adults and £117 for kids.

The deal includes savings of up to £54 per person.

You’ll get access to the Madame Tussauds, London Eye, London Dungeons, SEA LIFE and DreamWorks: Shrek’s Adventure.

And to make it even better, you don’t have to visit the attractions all in one go.

When you book the combo tickets, you need to select a date and time, which is when you’ll visit Madame Tussauds.

Then you’ll have 90 days from the day you visit Madame Tussauds to visit the remaining attractions. 

Even though your combo ticket will work any time and day within those 90 days, you’ll still need to reserve a slot before you visit.

You’ll find a booking link on your ticket where you can do this.

The tickets will expire 90 days after your visit to Madame Tussauds, regardless of whether or not you actually visit the other attractions.

If you’re looking for more family-friendly deals, Alton Towers announced the return of its popular half-term family event.

And TUI has hundreds of free child places this summer in Spain, Bulgaria and Greece.

Meanwhile, Travelodge reveals new ‘next-generation’ rooms for 2024, and thousands cost less than £35pp.
