We purchased the 48 hour, 2 route ticket, which we exchanged on a Sunday late morning and were told we could use up to and including Tuesday, which we were super pleased with. We used the Britannia route to see Her Majesty’s yacht but enjoyed the tour of outskirts and information provided on headphones. We then used City Tour to visit castle the following day and completed the City Tour loop on the Tuesday before we left. Knew we’d never fit everything in we wanted to do but was fab to see where we needed to go on our next visit.

was perfect.. nothing more to ask for .. amazing experience.would love to visit again

No issue using this ticket, we went early so there was lots of parking available.
