London Churchill War Rooms audiotour met ticket

This was a very interesting tour, especially for people interested in WWII. The audio guide gives some good insight about what it was like for the people who were there. You can go at your own pace - there is a lot to see in the museum section, and some videos you can watch. If you have the time I would recommend spending at least 2 hours, more if you want to go through the museum section thoroughly. The only issue with that area was that it was a bit dark and I was there with my mother who has macular degeneration issues and found the placards hard to see.

Very disappointed with both Viator and Wanderung the tour operator. I mistakenly booked tickets for June 24 instead of July 24. I notified them immediately of my mistake. Neither of them would do anything to help me change the tickets as the tickets were final so I am out $316 CAD. This after we booked at least 8 tours for 4 people through Viator for this trip. I will not use them again. Customer service was horrible.

A mind-blowing experience! An enormous amount of history packed into a relatively small, underground space.

Very informative and insightful. Wide ranging coverage of Churchill with the obvious focus on WW2. Disappointed with the Churchill museum part. Again wide ranging and insightful but not very well organised. It was too mixed and with no real guidance on how to follow it apart from a suggestion that it should be followed in a clockwise route. This was not really helpful as the exhibits were all over the room not just in a circle. It would have been better to have a guided chronological route to look at the exhibits. I became a bit fed up with the apparently disorganised nature and left before looking at all of it. The rest of the experience was great including the map rooms, accommodation etc. A must see for anyone with an interest in recent history.

The War Rooms are very well laid out, with great commentary on the audio guide accessory. There is a focus on many people’s experiences and emotions during the war. There is an intermediate room labelled Churchill Museum covering all facets of his life. It is a wonderful collection of artifacts, maps, pictures, and CGI videos. But compared to the rest of the CWR, it is very jumbled and confusing to navigate. I had difficulty in finding my way out. However, for the telling of this facet of WW2 and the English courage and spirit, the CWR definitely merits a visit.

It’s impactful and eye opening! Amazed at the size of the rooms, their experience during the war and what they endured.

It is a popular destination. Consider pre-paying. Most of the tour is a "time capsule": left untouched items upon war's end, as if people left their desks, locked the doors, never to return to clean up.

This was a very extensive look back at Winston Churchill's life with extra emphasis on the wartime years and the underground war rooms. The audio tour was informative and takes a solid 1.5hrs or more if you go through each audio description. They limit how many people are inside at one time but be prepared for a well attended exhibit. We were amazed at how much of the artifacts and rooms were retained in their original state. We learned a lot of WWII and Churchill history we hadn't known. We recommend this experience.

Visited first time in 1978. Returned and was as fascinated as ever. Lots of additional Exhibits about Winston Churchill added since 1978. But the reality of how the war was conducted, the conditions under which the staff labored and the ingenuity of the British people still comes through. In my view a "must see" to be revisited -- if only to remind us all of those perilous days and the leadership of a great visionary.

Amazing experience. So interesting!
