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).

Legoland Windsor Reviews
Rated
out of 5 Lots of family fun.
We had a great time, lots to do for all the family. the Rides were fun and suitable for all ages. There was play equipment and the water park drench towers was very popular on a hot summers day.
The park was clean and there were Suncream dispensers around the park so you could help yourself to suncream which I thought was fantastic.
Lovely day out, highly recommended.

We picked a good day to go weather wise. 2 of the photo rides were closed and 2 others 70 min wait, unfortunately our 8 year old won't queue for that long. Lots of great things to see and a great live show. The waiting times ruin it at every theme park these days and it costs far to much for fast track for 8 people. He enjoyed his day.

We really enjoyed Legoland. It was my son's first theme park and he loved every second.
I would recommend 'reserve and ride' passes. We were only able to go on 6 rides during the 6 hours of us being there.
The pirate show and puppet show was amazing. Very talented actors and puppeteers.

It's a great day out for the family but the overall offering is far less than it was 10 years ago despite all the new rides and performances. The food is poor quality, very commercial and massively overpriced. The ability for the richer visitors to bypass the heated hour long queues is great for them but just increases discontent for the other visitors who can be heard grumbling and the staff are also often grumpy and clearly unhappy with their work, even vocalizing this to us on more than one occasion. Overall it's worth the trip maybe once every few years but it certainly isn't worth buying an annual pass.

Booked three tickets for my daughter’s birthday and had a fantastic time. Access to the park was quick and there is something for all ages. We particularly enjoyed the Minifigure Speedway. You can take your own packed lunch but there is plenty to buy.
I highly recommend the ‘Reserve and ride’ tickets. We got the ultimate level which meant that we skipped the ordinary queues. For those wondering, you can use one smart phone to skips the queues for all passes purchased under that email. If your party wants to split up, you can log into multiple devices.

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.
