10 Fun Activities & Games in Greenwich That You Shouldn't Miss
The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

I visited the London branch with family a few weeks ago when kids where off school,I’ve alway been into games,technology but this was amazing!!!! First off I went with my girlfriend,two children ages 9 and 16 so good age gap and nan which she weren’t to sure but still had a g. We started with there new experience “Godzilla” and wow it blow me away,the interaction of the chair moving with the helicopter to dodge the night Beast was insane and at one point Nan thought she was gonna get crushed by falling buildings which was one of the most funny things I’ve seen and even she said she was in another world and forgot we was all there watching her. Next was the mighty “Mario Kart”!!!! All my life I’ve been waiting to actually be mario in that go-kart and my god I got my wish,how they came up with the idea of this blows my mind!!!!! Soon as the experience started all I could do was smile,I was a 10 year old child again,the movement of the hand sensors are brilliant add,the kart moving,feeling the breeze as you kept going,now I don’t want to give to much to anyone who hasn’t done this but I’d do this Daily and if I had the money I’d own it,it was by far the best thing I’ve done,stand Aside Thorpe park,London eye or anything else get yourselfs down to the Hollywood bowl at the o2 and enjoy one of if not the best London attraction I’ve ever done... Only worse part of it was losing to the boy who is only 9 so we had to have a rematch....3 goes later I had finally won and still wanted to keep going. If the VR Zone keeps bringing things like this to the UK your all in for a treat!!!! Full 10/10

Thank you Up The Creek for putting together Saturday 5th Feb line up of compare Michael Legge and comics @Jimmy James Jones, @Paul Thorne and Mike Gunn (Comedian). All comics worked the lively crowd exceptionally well. An exceptional night that had me laughing hard all night, so hard I woke up with a sore throat. That has never happened before at a comedy club. Own brew craft beer, bar service could be improved. But exceptional nite. Thank you Up the Creek Comedy Club — at Up the Creek Comedy Club

I visited the new VIP area and screens, fantastic experience, both food and drinks were supplied with the ticket price and the seats were real comfy, electric recliners. With about 60 people per screen this also meant it was a more intimate viewing pleasure.
7. The Emirates Aviation Experience
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 311 reviews
Pilot an A380 or B777 in a state of the art flight simulator. The Emirates Aviation Experience has 4 simulators on which you can test your take off and landing skills. A great value for money experience for advanced flyers and novices alike. Downstairs from the simulator zone is a unique interactive experience that takes you behind the scenes of modern commercial aviation. Learn about the science of flight and what happens to your body at 30,000 feet. Turn around an A380 quick enough to earn your gold wings or watch what happens to your luggage after check-in. All of this and much more is available at the Emirates Aviation Experience. Alternatively you could simply relax in our river facing cafe or browse in our shop. A great family attraction and right next door to the Emirates AirLine which allows you to cross the river Thames in a cable car.

After we came off of The Emirates Air Line Cable Car we went into The Emirates Aviation Experience. it IS included in the Ticket price of The Cable Car ride.this is a brilliant experience indeed. You see a Rolls Royce Engine, that powers The Emirates Planes, you can sit in a Cockpit and pretend to be a Pilot, experience what the Luggage goes through to get from you, handing it in, to getting on your Plane,Put on head-Phones to hear about the Air Crew and the on Board entertainment and how we get it. It's all VERY interesting indeed. I do reccommend that when you have been on the Cable Car or, if you like, beforehand that you pay a visit to the Emirates Aviation Experience.By the way the Cafe there is very nice too. You can get a nice Cup of tea and a Danish there, we did.

We went here and got Gallery seating. This is fabulous! You have access to a fully stocked bar beforehand and the drinks are really reasonably prices (highly recommend the strawberry daiquiri). You also get popcorn, soft drinks and nachos included in the price and an extra wide seat for comfort! Would highly recommend getting these tickets as they are worth the extra money and the bar use is lovely.

The Riddle Within are London's hottest new escape room team with years of experience staging immersive events and a serious passion for puzzles! We have teamed up with one of Londons biggest music venues (Studio 338) and the team behind Brighton's much loved Bewilder Box to create experiences which transcend the genre and take things to a whole new level. Flight 338 is the world's first escape room set on a real-life decomissioned plane. You are a gang of convicts, can you escape the plane? Chernobyl: 10 Seconds to Midnight, inspired by the major HBO drama, puts you and your team in the control room on that fateful night.

I've done about 5 escape rooms and saw this one and wanted to do for my birthday, booked it for 6 of us and it was for me the best one to date. From start to finish it was exciting, testing, and so much fun. The evening was so cold and were cold in plane but kept going. We finished with 30 seconds to spare in a panic lol. Theres lots to do and work out and enough for 6 of us as everyone gets a chance to get involved whether using logic, searching for items and lots of other tasks. The plane theme is so well done. We arrived and put on overalls and handcuffs and it began. Will not say what happens but I couldnt stop laughing as the officer really went into character and that was the start of an exciting hour. I would definitely want to do again a different theme like Breaking bad. The music was even prison break which I am a fan of. Well worth money for 6 of us and a great start of our evening in London. It's a bit of a walk from North greenwich station and you literally walk straight in when your time comes. No point getting there too early. It was brilliant.
