The art and how each piece was played out.
As in positioned so it was easier to not to get overwhelmed by it. So it would force you to spend more time to experience it. (by looking at it and read about it)

Could we BE any more impressed? My sister and I booked ticket to the Friends experience in London at thr last minute -literally the same day- and Headout still managed to have availability. The booking was seemless, super quick and easy do we wouldn't miss our dash into the world of our favourite New Yorkers.
The experience itself was also incredible, we got to go through Monica's apartment, chill at Central Perk, and read THE letter (18 pages, front and back!).
If you're a Friends fan, don't hesitate. We would highly recommend it!

Everything went as planned and no issues, only concern I had was printing out the tickets for the London Bridge as it said the E-ticket wouldn't be accepted. We had issues wat the hotel with connection to print and had a slight panic... but we got there in the end.
It would be beneficial to allow the eticket to be used, especially if you booked these on the day whilst out and about.
Other wise it was perfect and would use your service again.
