Amazing, one of the best value attractions I London. We had a 2 hour tour (included within admission) by Vivienne. She was humorous, knowledgable, friendly and engaging (thanks Vivienne). Preferred this to walking around with headphones and nice to have the option. Went right up to the top of the dome (independently of the guided tour)….warning, you need to be pretty fit and have a head for heights to do this!
Well done, we both voted this one of the best attractions during our 5 day trip. Thank you!
Allow around 4 hours for a visit, 2 hours for guided tour, 2 hours to look around yourself and possibly go up the dome and get a drink

Go no later than 10am to have a hassle-free entry without the huge queue to get in. I pre-booked my tickets using the 2for1 offer on National Rail. It is hugely impressive inside, you just need to stand for a bit and take it all in. But the best bit is the climb up (over 500 steps) all the way to the very top of the dome, where you can walk in a full circle right around to take in every possible vantage point of the city. You have 2 stop off points on the way up, where you get to take in the views (the first one is inside, looking down into the cathedral - no photos allowed on this level) and then another level up, where you walk outside right around the start of the dome (limited view through the stone pillars) before finally reaching the summit, where you can walk outside on a very narrow walkway around the dome and get unobstructed views of the city. There are plenty of seats on the way up and down (the narrow sections are one-way, so no awkward squeezing past people coming the other way). Please note that the second and third set of steps are steep and narrow and you can see right down as you climb up the metal section of spiral staircase. A lady in front of us had a bit of a panic attack and had to come back down, so don't do this if you have a genuine problem with heights. I can't believe that in these modern health and safety-obsessed times that they actually let you right up to the top. Book it now before the H&S police decide that we can't be trusted to not throw ourselves off the stairs and shut it down!

It was a miserable rainy day when we did it, but it didn't dampen our enthusiasm for the whole experience but I will probably book it again when the weather is nice, just for the photos!

To exit, you go down into the crypt and that is another experience in itself - there is also a nice-looking café down here but we had just stuffed ourselves with a hotel breakfast and so didn't need to stop here.

When we came out at about 11.15am, there was a massive queue to get in - with people having to queue to get through the bag search in the pouring rain.

Very nice visit which allows you to enjoy a magnificent view of central London at the top (538 steps, the last ones steep). Slightly prohibitive prices.

Did the self guided audio tour through this amazing Cathedral. Do take the 257 stairs up to the Whispering gallery it gives you an incredible inside view. Then continue and take steps up to the Stone gallery for a stunning outside view. The stairs that continue to the Golden gallery get very narrow and winding. Those stairs lead out side to a narrow walking space only wide enough for one person in some areas, so it is hard to pass people. Many people stop to take pictures and will not let others pass, even in the areas where you can pass.So we were stuck standing outside freezing on a cold and blustery day. I do not recommend going up to the Golden gallery.

My absolute favorite in London, such a beautiful design. And if you are sporty enough (and not claustrophobic and/or too afraid of heights), you can go up to the top of the cathedral to enjoy a breathtaking view on the city.
And let's be honest, here you don't have to sell your kidney to buy an entry ticket like in Westminster Abbey 🙃

I was on my way to The Tate and saw this cathedral and went inside without doing any research. I noticed there were people walking around at a higher level beneath the dome (the “whispering gallery”)…. So I went up a large spiral staircase. The whispering gallery cool in itself. But to my surprise there were signs to go through this little door to climb higher up a series of narrow old spiral staircases to the “Stone Gallery” which led to an observation deck with great views of London. Then again to my surprise, there was an entry to some very narrow iron-grated staircases that went all the way up to the top spire of the dome for the “Golden Gallery.” The last set of staircases was a surprisingly challenging climb (and not suitable for those with fear of heights) …. But I very much enjoyed the unexpected adventure

It was good we didn’t have a slotted time slot. However when we could fit in our visit we got caught up with the demonstrations in Westminster so didn’t have enough time to visit St. Paul’s. I tried to reschedule but they would not allow or give a credit for another day. I did explain what happened but no response from them. Very poor service

We got a book for our kids Mission:London that helped them with London’s sightseeing spots, like a scavenger hunt. It kept them engaged. Kids are 11 and 12. They did make it to the top of the dome. Nice gift shop in the basement.
