We were able to see a lot of London in only 2 days because it was so convenient to take the bus and to have admission already paid for many of the sites we visited.

Having the pass makes it much easier by avoiding ticket lines, however, there are some aspects that are good to point out: some facilities have rather limited opening hours, you have to take this into account when planning activities because you risk missing something: for example, we were not able to visit Westminster Abbey because a) on Sundays it is open only for worship, b) by postponing the visit to the following Tuesday morning we alas discovered that on October 1, that is when we wanted to go) the abbey opens at 1 p.m. Having to leave in the afternoon we missed it. Or the London Eye opens only late in the morning and, having to make reservations, the performance of the whole day suffers, because one cannot go to a museum, for example, as there is no time to do so either before (they open at 10 a.m.) or after (many close at 5 p.m. and between the time to go and the time to visit one would be squeezed in); moreover, the pass does not give priority of entry, despite the reservation. Finally, I would have preferred the pass to include more art venues than entertainment venues. Then if you are not able to use all the passes, the savings in spending are nullified

Ireland

Disappointed! We chose the wrong day, it rained heavily and continously that day and we were soaked and couldn't enjoy much. Also some of the animals couldn't be seen as they hid under shelter. Be careful around noon as the animals could be taking their nap. Absolutely loved the Lion kingdom, they recreated mini Gujarat (state in India), that made our day. Butterfly paradise wasn't too good, there were very few butterflies. The giant caterpillars stole the thunder. Penguin show was great. Toilet is near the entrance and one near the tiny giants habitat. Please carry your umbrella or rain/wind sheater, we paid £18 just for the disposable ponchos (4 ponchos). Also wear comfortable shoes and carry light snacks and water bottle the zoo is huge.

Our 10 year old grandson liked the mini giants best - awesome. Loved that the ants carrying leaves walked along ropes outside the tanks. Loved parrot display. Disappointed there were no elephants or sea lions. Disappointed that so many tanks in the reptile house/mini giants were 'moving house'. Thought Poo at the Zoo in the loo was hilarious! Enjoyed the activity area where he could do the puzzle and get in and out of the web. Seats for the adults would be good in that area. Buying tickets was easy.
