Legoland Windsor Day Trip
Bring back memories with a visit to Legoland - Fun for all ages

A day trip to Legoland is a great family activity and will be an especially big hit with the kids. It offers a total of 55 exciting rides and attractions inside a beautiful 150 acre park site.
Legoland Windsor was the first Legoland theme park to open since the original Legoland attraction in Denmark. It first opened in 1996, attracting about 1,400,000 visitors in it's first year. Since opening the theme park has added new attractions and rides almost every year.
Kids and adults alike will marvel at the complex and sophisticated recreations of famous buildings, landmarks and more, all created with LEGO. Many of the rides in Legoland are especially suited to younger children. Like many theme parks, Legoland is divided up into sections, each portraying a different theme. These include the Imagination Centre, Miniland, Traffic, DuploLand, LEGO City, Kingdom of the Pharaohs, Pirates Landing, Knight's Kingdom and Adventure Land. An astounding 55 million LEGO bricks have gone into the construction of all the models in the park. To see a preview of some of the fun rides check out the video at the bottom of the page.
Legoland is only a short distance from Windsor Castle so you may want to combine the two into a single day trip, however it certainly possible to spend a full day exploring either.
Tip: Save some money by bringing a picnic lunch with you.
Legoland's season is from April to November (see below).

Had a really good time with my 2 daughters. They both enjoyed the experience. Seeing how much stuff was built out of bricks was awesome. Some really good rides. Had to queue a bit but expected on a busy day. Would definitely recommend and 100% come back again

We went to Legoland Windsor in the school holidays and… wow, the queues. I expected it to be busy, but spending 45 minutes to well over an hour for most rides was draining. It felt like we spent more time in line than actually doing anything. The kids were still excited, but by the end even they were fed up of standing around.
Food was another gripe – small portions, average quality, and very expensive. It’s very much “theme park prices,” and it adds up quickly. And on top of that, you’re hit with a £12 parking charge, which feels cheeky when tickets are already pricey. That said, the free water refill stations were a nice touch and saved us from constantly buying drinks.
On the positive side, the park itself is clean, colourful, and full of charming Lego details that really do impress. Staff were friendly and helpful too. But honestly, if you’re visiting in peak times, go in knowing you’ll need a lot of patience, a lot of cash, and a plan to make the most of it.

Good one-off experience. Best for families with kids aged between 5-10. The new Sky Lion ride is impressive and there's a pretty decent kid friendly roller coaster. Buying tickets online is cheaper, but still fairly pricey plus another 12 pounds to park there.

Good family day but after 20 years we returned today and it was obvious no investment is being made - several of the model boats were sinking, The guards marching - their red tunics were faded, various models weren't working properly. I remember it being fantastic and wanted to return earlier but the travel from Lincolnshire meant we only just got back. It was still enjoyable for 4 hours but no longer great. Such a shame. Considering it was height of season no plays/displays were on. Access was good and security professional. Mini golf was fun. Not many rides but plenty of under 12 play areas. Plenty of food on sale, cafes and restaurants but as expected prices high. We took our own picnic - plenty of benches to sit on.

Legoland is a great place to entertain your children for a couple of days. My wife and I took our 6 year old and 10month old. They had rides suitable for both ages. Popular rides like Pirate Falls in hot weather has a long wait. 2 hours I think we were waiting. Eating there can also be expensive. However there is plenty to do here. They also do different photo packages. We had option one which allowed us to have as many digital photos we liked along with 4 hard copies, we also had options for key rings and magnets included. On our visit the printing machines broke down. But the team at Pirate falls sorted everything out, Aleasha and her team were amazing, I think they managed to address all the issues with parks photographs that day. Big thanks to you all.

How to get to Legoland Windsor by Tube and National Rail
From Paddington Station purchase a National Rail Ticket for the First Great Western Line to Windsor and Eton Central Station. There will be a transfer between trains at Slough Station. Total time on the train including the transfer varies between 26 and 50 minutes depending on which train you catch.
When you arrive at Windsor and Eton Central Station walk south on High Street to the bus stop in front of the Windsor Parish Church (about 1 block south of Windsor Castle). Take the Route 191 or Route 200 Shuttle bus to Legoland. Buses run approximately every 20 minutes and the ride takes about the same. This bus service is not operated by Legoland and therefore requires a separate fare, however you can purchase a combination fare covering both the train and shuttle bus at the train station when you start your trip.
Use the National Rail Journey Planner to get details and departure times for you trip.
