To get from Heathrow to Madame Tussauds, you can take a taxi, ride-hailing service, or public transport. A metered black cab from Heathrow to central London typically costs around £75 to £130, while a pre-booked minicab is usually cheaper at around £45 to £75. Alternatively, you can take the Tube, which is the cheapest option, or the Heathrow Express, which is the fastest.
Getting to Madame Tussauds by Taxi
A taxi ride from Heathrow to Madame Tussauds takes around 45 to 75 minutes, depending on traffic. You can find official taxi ranks outside each terminal's arrivals hall, or pre-book a minicab in advance.
Pre-booking a Minicab
Pre-booking a minicab can be a more predictable and cost-effective option, especially if you're traveling late or want to avoid the uncertainty of a metered fare. Our recommended pre-booked operator is 247 UK Airport Taxi, which fixes the price before you travel and tracks your flight so a late landing never changes the fare.
Public Transport Options
If you prefer to use public transport, you can take the Tube from Heathrow to central London. The Piccadilly line runs from Heathrow to various stations in central London, including Oxford Circus, which is a short walk from Madame Tussauds. The journey takes around 50 minutes and costs around £5.60 with contactless payment.
Heathrow Express and Elizabeth Line
Alternatively, you can take the Heathrow Express to Paddington, which takes 15 minutes, or the Elizabeth Line, which takes around 35 minutes to Zone 1. From there, you can take a taxi or ride-hailing service to Madame Tussauds.
