Tips For a Great Visit!
Madame Tussauds is an astounding wax museum that showcases internationally-known figures that look so real, you’ll swear that you are actually peering at the real person. It's downright creepy! You’ll find yourself touching the figures, just to prove that your eyes aren’t deceiving you!
You’ll see President Obama, Marilyn Monroe, the Jonas Brothers, Martin Luther King, Madonna, Princess Diana, Derek Jeter, and many more sports figures, musicians, and celebrities.
There are over 200 life-size, wax creations at Madame Tussauds. Don’t forget your camera. Tell your friends that you met the President, and prove it with a cozy picture of just the two of you! No doubt about it. This is pure, unadulterated fun!
I RECOMMEND:
- Having your picture taken with your favorite stars. Yes, the pictures are ridiculously expensive, but they are actually worth it! (Hey, did I say that?) Or you CAN take your own!
- Experiencing the Cinema 4D theater. It’s a blast.
- Participating in the American Idol star section and sing and record your very own performance on the American Idol stage. This might be your own, and only, 5 minutes of fame—go for it!
- Getting there early, or on an off hour. It does get crowded.
