Skip The Line Tours, Tickets and Passes
No matter where you travel to in the world, there will always be places of interest to visit and attractions to see. Every major city around the world nearly always has a museum, gallery, tour or event. The problem with all the top attractions is that they are usually very busy, due to the fact that everyone wants to visit them! As a result, the queues for these top attractions can be very long (especially at peak times), which then only ends up with you having to wait in the queues for long periods of time.
Many of the major attractions now operate on an advance booking policy. This means that unless you have pre-booked your ticket and entrance time in advance, you will not be allowed entry. However, they do have designated times that are allocated to visitors who do not have a pre-booked ticket and simply wish to ‘pay on the door’ when they arrive. The real problem with this, is obviously lots of people turn up at these times in the hope to get in, which then results in large queues!
The last thing you want to be doing on your holiday or visit, is to be stood outside an attraction queuing to get in, especially if the weather is really hot, raining or cold! So many people waste a large amount of time standing in queues unnecessarily and then don’t have enough time to see all the other attractions sights or enjoy what little time they do have, in that destination.
Skip The Line tours, tickets and passes, are the perfect way to get the most out of your time in anyone destination but still see all the top attractions that you want to see, yet would normally spend large amounts of time queuing to get in. Most top attractions around the world, now offer special Skip The Line tours, tickets or passes, that allow you priority entrance without having to queue. As you can imagine, having priority entrance that allows you to skip the queuing line, is a major plus and will save you a huge amount of time and stress. The crazy thing is, that although these tickets and passes are available, so many people do not take advantage of them and choose to queue for hours at a time!

Travelling and Queuing With Children
If you are travelling with children and have had to previously queue in a line with them in the past, then you will be well aware that children do not enjoy waiting in queues! Having priority entrance to an attraction, saves all the nagging and tears from them and will definitely money well spent.
What Passes, Tickets and Tours Are Available

Some major cities throughout the world offer multi day passes, that allow you Skip The Line priority entrance to a large number of attractions. This means that you only need to purchase one pass and it will allow you entrance to several attractions.

The passes are also good if you have limited time in a particular destination and would like to cram in as many attractions as you possible can, during that period. The multi day passes are great if you make the most out of them and use them on transport, in museums, restaurants, theme parks and many other places that you are entitled priority entrance.
Are They Worth It
Obviously, the Skip The Line passes and tickets cost a little more than the standard entrance fee and at the time you purchase them, you may be wondering if paying a little extra money is worth it? However, I am sure that if you didn’t buy one and it resulted in you waiting in a queue for an hour or two, then you would certainly have wished you had bought one and that the little more expense, would have been worth it! If you are planning to visit a major attraction, that generally has large crowds queueing to get in such as The Eiffel Tower in Paris, Versailles Palace or Colosseum in Rome, then it is certainly worth investing in a Skip the line ticket.

The bottom line, is simply do a little research and plan your trip in advance and it will save you a lot of time and stress, for just a few pounds more!
