Easy to purchase; tickets arrived by email almost immediately. The recommended app was easy to install and allowed us to exchange our tickets for entry tickets to the attractions we had chosen (would recommend doing this as soon as you can) Seemed good value for money.

We squeezed this in on our last day and we are so glad we did! What an utterly amazing experience! We also had a glass of champagne with was ridiculously overpriced but it was nice to say we did that lol! Highly highly highly recommend doing this!

It was very nice how everything was prepared for the visitors. When we got to the top, it was still light and the view was breathtaking. I can only imagine the sunset.

As a MASSIVE friends fan, I was more than impressed with this! Would do it all over again in a second

Great tour of the park with a lovely, friendly guide.
