London Essence Tour, suitable for first-time visitors to London. The tour guide is friendly, the itinerary is not too rushed, and there is enough time to take photos.

It is illegal and convenient to use, just show your electronic ticket, but please note that some attractions require additional reservations. I bought a three-day ticket and I can get my money back by visiting a few attractions, which is great value for money.

Buying a set of tickets is much cheaper than selling them individually, which saves time in purchasing tickets. The ticket exchange process is very smooth. It is very convenient to show mobile phone screenshots without having to use paper books!

I used this for Kensington Palace, Tower of London, and Westminster Abbey. It turned out cheaper to use a Klook Pass than buy individual tickets for all 3 sites. Very easy to use. Highly recommend!
