The 28 best sights in Windsor (2024)

This theme park is themed around the popular Lego toy system and offers rides, shows, amusem*nts and shops across 12 themed lands. It is one of the most-visited attractions in the UK, with more than two million people visiting in 2015.

Great one night stay with 2 days in the park. The park had great rides and luckily for us the ques were not too bad. Our 8 year old really enjoyed. Our only complaint, was the air conditioning in our room. It would only blow cold air. We were unable to get it working to warm up. We stayed in the castle hotel, in a themed knights room, which was a great experience. We are all worn out today, from such a fun experience in the park. We ate our tea at the bricks restaurant, which was nice. Good service. We ate our breakfast at the tournament tavern, which was also tasty, with good quality food. Would recommend the experience for families.

A great place to hangout with family and friends. We reached there at around 10 am and thought that we are very early and what will we do for the entire day. But as the day passed we found it very difficult to cover the entire resort in that limited time. The resorts closing time is 6pm however we left ad around 6.45 and there was a huge crowd which did so. And even after leaving that late we were thinking that we could spend more time there. Since it's summer holidays and especially we went there on a bank holiday it was super crowded and busy. The first ride we took had a waiting time of around an hour. And all the major rides had the same waiting time but all were worth the wait. The rides I liked specially were the water splash, the haunted house and the fairy tale ride. The fairy tale ride was so fascinating that we took it twice, and also because it was not that busy. It is recommended that you take spare clothes if you want to indulge in the water rides. There are plenty of places to eat and drink, though they are a bit expensive. Highly recommended

We have been here 4 times in the past 4 years. This was certainly the most disappointing. Before I start let me state it was on 30 June 2023 and not school holidays.How about I give you the + & -+Friendly staffShop has a lot of cool stuffGreat rides when they are functional and workingCoffee now at entrance and later on which is great-Viking River Splash was not working last year and again not this year in summer!We spend 6.5 hours there and only managed to do 7 rides. They simply let too many people in! It was a madhouse and others had similar complaints about the capacity.Food is terrible and extremely expensive.£10 for parking which is 15 min walk is simply not very fair. No other option either.They really need to sell less tickets so that people who are in can enjoy things more. We waited over an hour for 3 separate rides! Again not school holidays.Below scores are out of 10😉 Customer Service 9🙂 Food Quality 4🙂 Atmosphere 9🙂 Price £££££ (rated between 1 - 5 £)🙂 Presentation 7🙂 Products 7✅ Wifi Yes🙂 Location 10🅿️ Parking: Lots of paid parking available at £10Overall 7 ⭐️

A great day out. Recommend buying tickets in advance as cheaper. Blue badge holder pay standard parking but get priority parking spaces. Carer tickets claimed at ticket office BEFORE you go inside. (To order these are well hidden on the website pages, search "carer"). Digital download for all your days pictures is £20 which is much cheaper than buying individually. Ride queue times hit and miss. Longest wait we had was 30 mins.Massive lack of seating throughout park to just sit for a bit. On a hill so get your comfiest shoes on to walk in. Would have been 5 star but staff at the "fun flavours " ice cream shop were really rude when we asked for a vegan option (there wasn't one). Plus staff at the hot dog stall by the harbour were having a bad day and looked like they had just finished an argument. Toilets on entry were really grimy even at the start of the day.

Amazing hotel and fun park. Second to none with so many things to do, kids didn't stop for a second. Themed room was clean and fresh with plenty of room for a family of 5. Probably the best shower in Europe in the bathroom. Legoland park was incredible and left me and kids a bit awestruck with all the Lego creations and rides. I Highly recommend.PS. I would like to thank all the staff who were full of fun and made our stay an absolute pleasure.

This was an amazing place to go with my 7 year old. He and us absolutely loved it. So much to do and we went on all the rides we wanted to go on together. We stayed over and got a good deal on the room. We enjoyed the room too.Only down side was the price for food in the restaurants on site. Lunch was well overpriced for what it was, and quality wasn't the best, same with evening meal only saving grace was good service and friendly staff. The park itself was amazing, though, and all the rides were appropriate, which you don't always get elsewhere. The Christmas activities on and santa visit were really good and my son again enjoyed this. We'll be back but won't be eating on site.

This is definitely a full day out possibly even 2 to see and do everything, average queuing times for the summer holidays. We'd definitely return. Staff are friendly and helpful, facilities are clean and tidy despite the massive foot fall. We saw a live action show which was brilliant.

It was a wonderful day with high temperatures since the morning. There are a lot of games, all of which are free and included in the ticket. Today is my son’s fourth birthday, and I was lucky to go to this place. I thought my son would not enjoy his day, but he was very happy to play there, and one of the things that made him very happy today was getting a car driver’s license 😂😂 I thank God. On this wonderful, beautiful day. I highly recommend families to visit this place

Had an absolute blast here with the kids! Tagged along on a family trip to celebrate my nephew’s birthday. We booked in advance using cereal vouchers. It was a lot of fun & tons bigger than we’d anticipated.From workshops to theatre to age-appropriate fun rides; there’s something for everyone!

This place had something for everyone and all ages. Rides were great however waiting times were quite high. The kids enjoyed their time there so much.Food wise was tough as they didn't accommodate gluten free options. The kids were very sad they couldn't have any ice cream because it was cross contaminated. You can take in snacks which was great. Definitely coming back when the kids are a little older so they can experience the bigger rides too. I think you need to come a few times so you can see all the different parts of the park. Because you spend so much time waiting to get on the ride you don't get to actually experience the park as much. So definitely need to come back. I guess that's how they make their money 💸💸💸

I recently visited Legoland Windsor on a weekday, and overall, I had a positive experience. The ambiance of the park was great, creating a vibrant and fun atmosphere that added to the enjoyment of the day.The staff at Legoland were mostly nice and friendly, which enhanced the overall experience. They were helpful and willing to assist whenever needed. Interactions with the staff were generally pleasant, and they added to the positive atmosphere of the park.However, one downside of my visit was the significant queues. Despite it being a weekday, there were large queues for the attractions, which affected the overall enjoyment of the day. Waiting for extended periods of time can be frustrating, especially when you're eager to explore all that Legoland has to offer

What a great day we had, think we probably needed 2 days and wish we had stayed. It was busy but not uncomfortable. The park is packed with loads to do and see and I would highly recommend a visit, wish we'd done it years ago to be fair. Food isn't cheap but we didn't expect it to be, the refillable drinks were a little disappointing and no ice available, so wouldn't do that again but overall a great day out. Recommend paying to park beforehand to save a few pennies :)

We spent an entire day at the park and was enough to see all attraction. Although there were massive queue everywhere. The entry ticket is reasonable if you buy it advance. Many food/snacks options, also vegan friendly.Staff was very friendly. And seeing the shop outlet is MUST! 😍

What a fantastic day we had. This was our 'Big Kids' day out and we picked a perfect weekend for it. Parking seemed to be the only difficulty but we picked a Saturday so we've only got ourselves to blame. The attractions were amazing, the new 4D ride was mind-blowing and the Halloween performance finished it off for us. We'll be going back one day!

Spent a day at Legoland during Christmas opening. Bought tickets in advance, which was good because it was sold out. The park looked great, decorated with lights and trees, and there were extra events throughout the day. Kids had a great time. Personally I think other theme parks give better value for money, this is relatively limited if you're looking for adrenaline, but good for keeping younger kids entertained for a day. Also good if you're a Lego fan!Was impressed to see a sun block dispenser on the outside of the first aid office. We didn't need it because it was freezing cold, but top marks in the summer as I haven't seen that at other places before.

We stayed in the Legoland Hotel for the Santa sleepover, and we had a great time. All staff were friendly and helpful.We did think the hotel could do with a few more Christmas decorations, but still, it was nice.The whole park was open, apart from the water rides. Mythica was brilliant. We went on this a few times.We had dinner and breakfast in Bricks restaurant, and again, staff were great and very helpful with any allergies that you may have.Did think the breakfast would have been better if it was buffet.The park was clean and plenty of places to either get food or drinks.Overall, a great night away.

We had a great day. We took our 8 year old and he lead the way. What’s good is none of the rides are huge so he’s happy to go on all of them. Great for families. We had a brilliant day. Despite arriving for opening time and staying until closing - it was busy so we only got on 5 rides all day.

Nicola Robinson — Google review

Great family day for young and old. Park opens at 10. I recommend you get there before as there is a public opening countdown every day. As soon as you enter, there are toilet facilities, and you either walk or take the train to the rides. Will stress you will be walking for most of the 7 hours you are there recommend hiking shoes,wellies, and waterproofs in case it rains! There is little in the way of shelter. It is very open! Nearly had to take a loan out for the ice cream £5 it is massive. Waiting times on rides depends on the time of year you go. There are plenty of toilet and coffee shops about. No dogs allowed. Wheelchair and pushchair accessible

Michelle Finn — Google review

We had a fantastic day but most rides were closed, not the cleanest of places, £20 for unlimited digital photo's on the rides but only one ride had a photo the rest either were not taking photos or the rides was broken/closed.Would recommend finding out what is open before booking. All you can eat pizza pasta is nice food but manic when busy. Expensive day. But we made the most of it.

Eddie Morris — Google review

Great place to visit and spend the day. Queue times varied depending on time of day. There's a good variation of rides depending on age and excitement level. Get the Legoland app to see queue times and help navigate around the park. Priority parking opens at 9am which isn't printed on the ticket. Unlimited refill drinks were a lifesaver, although £9 upfront per bottle, it was great for the kids as we didn't need to keep visiting shops or carry around bottles in our bag. Overall a great experience and will definitely be visiting again.

Craig W — Google review

Legoland is a great time for a family day out. I would say the upper age limit for kids is around 12 years old. Older than that, the rides will seem a bit kiddy.Buy your tickets in advance. Pay for parking in advance. Have fun!

Tom Carter — Google review

Good place to visit, we have had unlucky day as it was raining 🌧.Rides are fun and approx was 10/15 min wait time.When we sat for lunch I the large eatery the fire alarm went off and we was told to evacuate, it was a false alarm and we couldn't complete our lunch.As every big theme park is essential to arrive early to park easy and not wait too long to enter.Overall good fun Park for the children to enjoy.I recommend to visit.

Lyubomir Georgiev (Lyubo) — Google review

Good fun for younger children but be prepared for long queues in the school holidays. Take snacks & drinks to have during the waiting time is my advice. We also found a lot of rides were not working or broke down while we were there which added to the frustration levels,the rides we did get on were good though.We also stayed at the resort hotel which was really enjoyable.

We Loved our Trip to Legoland. We got there nice and early at 9am in the car park and thought Wow we are one of the first few families to get there. Parked up and made our way to the Entrance and Lucky to be First in the line. We had about a 20 minute wait for the Gates to open. The Staff did a count down from 10 and Bang on 9:30am the Gates opened. My son had already decided on the first ride so we made our way down to the Laser Raiders ride. Being there early does make a great deal of difference as no queues for the rides. By 12pm we had done a lot of rides and then had a Nice break and had some Food. Then the boys wanted to go to the Splash water area and cool down as it was a seriously Hot day (25c+). As the day went on, we could see the queues getting Bigger and I recommend using the Legoland App as it gives you a waiting time on each ride and how to walk to the next ride. As for Food and drink it is pricey but it's recommended you buy the Refill Drinks Bottle at about £14 each for 2 Bottles and there were Drinks stations everywhere to go and Top your Bottle of Drink. We took some of our own food and snacks to save a little. Overall it was a Brilliant Family day out. Legoland ticked off our List...Let the next adventure begin ✌🏽

We came here for 2 days we stayed in Slough just 10 min drive away so was cheaper it was fantastic my 9yr old loved every minute and so did we its all set out really well. We were lucky the English October holidays start this week so it wasn't too busy no waiting in cues for long and not at all with some rides we spend the whole day here.

If you or your kids love Lego then Legoland is must go place for you. We enjoyed our first visit very much. But was disappointed with the crowed management, it took at least 1 hour in the queue for each ride, due to the huge crowd. Few tips from my end which will be helpful if you are visiting the Legoland.1. Try to use public transportation to reach the Legoland. Will be helpful to avoid parking and traffic bottlenecks.2. Always book the tickets in advance because if you go for ticket booking for today the ticket charges will be more.3. Download the Legoland map on the phone to traverse through more easily in the park.4. Identify the rides you want to do and go directly to them without wasting time on anywhere else. The other parts of the park you can always visit without the queue.5. Leave half or one hour early of park closure time to avoid traffic.6. Avoid bank holiday weekends to avoid crowds.Was disappointed by crowd management, the Legoland Management should limit the tickets instead of asking people to go for skip the queue tickets.

My experience at Legoland on New Year's Eve was nothing short of spectacular. The park was alive with excitement, and the festive atmosphere was infectious. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the fantastic fireworks show, which lit up the night sky in a dazzling display of color and light, filling the air with a sense of wonder and delight. As I strolled through the park, I was captivated by the impressive Lego builds that adorned every corner, showcasing incredible creativity and attention to detail. The rides were thrilling and filled with laughter and joy, adding to the already magical atmosphere. It was a truly unforgettable way to ring in the new year, and the memories of that special evening at Legoland will stay with me for years to come.

I really enjoyed my stay at the resort hotel and the park. My 4 year old son loved it. The room with the hidden treasure, the play room and splash pool. And once we go to the park the new rides and attractions just keep on coming. There is plenty to choose from, we visited on a week day which made the queues much shorter...if visiting on a busy weekend I would suggest the fast track queue options. Especially if going with little one

Good for the younger family members and those who love Lego …. Typical theme park prices though and weirdly the fairground stalls have “variable pricing” the £5 a go on Friday was £7 on a Saturday? We swerved the £3 to throw one basketball at a hoop though! Mini land is cool though and the AR app for Mythica amusing - not so amusing was a 70 minute wait for the ride. Long waits for most rides for young children is not fun for them or us adults!

David Anderson — Google review

It was a very nice one. I wasn't expecting the size of the resort until I got there. 😅 We could only visit a few number of places. We've got a Merlin pass, so we'll definitely visit again - of course, the places we've not been.

Ibrahim Oluwaseun Adedokun — Google review

Kids enjoyed it. It was a tough day, though, with queues up to 50 mins for some rides - considering it was March, I can only imagine what it would be like during school holidays and the summer!The biggest downside was the price of everything. £9 for a battered sausage and chips. £5 for an ice cream. £8 for 5 donuts. £25 to hire a scooter. £10 to park. Lego massively overpriced (playing on kids' wanting it). Up to £10 PER RIDE to get to the front of the queues, meaning those with money could jump to the front of all the queues, leaving those less well off, waiting even longer in queues. Not fair.These types of places absolutely rip people off, for no other reason than sheer greed.But, the kids enjoyed it....

Jonathan Davies — Google review

It was a lovely place, beautifully designed, strategically located, and spacious. The rides were awesome, and the kids had a superb time.The minicity was the most exciting non-ride aspect of Resort for me.The waiting time is almost as advertised, but most of the attractions had wait times less than 10 minutes.

Henry O. — Google review

Amazing place. It has everything for everybody, right from kids of 4-8 years, young once and adults as well. You can get food from the various options available there, or you can pack the home made food as well (more economical). I suggest to plan the trip and what rides you want to try (use LegoLand app). This will help to cover rides you want to enjoy. You may to able to cover all rides in a day so either try to schedule another trip or you may want to stay there (yes, there is an option) and try all the rides. Enjoy !!

Visited for the first time with my 6 year old daughter during the first week of Easter break.Daughter loved Legoland, naturally, especially being a ninjago fan. Sadly, it didn’t live up to my expectations.We had a 4 hour limit to our stay because of family commitments and during the first 3 hours we queued for 3 rides and for lunch.On lunch options, £8+ for a long hot dog is just too much and the quality of fare is really basic and unhealthy.To get the best out of your visit arrive early, get the queue jumping pass and take your own lunch.

Chris and Nat — Google review

Really good day. Easter Friday, booked tickets and parking in advance. No queue to get in and the queues when in the park weren't that bad really, 45m to an hour for the big rides but still a few that were only up to half an hour wait.I've added a Map of the park for you so you can use it to plan your route around the park. We headed straight to the back of the park and worked our way to the front throughout the day. Worked well.

Had a lovely day out here in the April half term and it was not too busy. Longest que during the day was 50mins for the sky fire ride.It was easy to find and park up (I paid for parking in advance which I highly recommend). We then headed in at 10am as it opened and went in with no waiting.The kids loved everything they went on, and the ques were very reasonable. They were often moving quickly which is good and there is generally plenty to look at and keep you entertained while waiting.We had the fried chicken for lunch but it was far too overpriced and certainly felt like they were taking advantage. It doesn't need to be that expensive. Hence the 4 stars here.We barely managed to get on a quarter of the rides available during the day out, so it's very possible to stay at the park or nearby and have multiple visits without being bored. However we managed to go on all our favourite ones and it was wonderful for the younger ones to be able to try their first roller coasters.The shop at the end was great, we got there a bit early to avoid the mad ques and it paid off.Overall I would rate our trip 4/5 with the lost star being the high price of extras such as the food/drinks, full price on lego at the shop and overpriced souvenir items.We will definitely return though, thank you Lego.

Fun place for the family! While it rained it was still a good time. Finding our premium parking failed but oh well.There is lots to do and ensure you bring rain gear and pack a great picnic as they have places all over. There is a resort hotel on the grounds and skip that. Stay at the Heathrow Marriott on Bath Road :)
