I have to say I was surprised how awesome this place was. The why they made the famous actors, singers, athletes and much more were very good. And price is not to bad. But check it out your self.

Even after residing close to NYC, I never got a chance to visit Madame Tussauds. For that reason, I didnt want to miss the opportunity in SF.This accessible museum is such a fun place to be, exhibiting numerous wax statues of celebs from various genres could be seen & few of them were unrecognizable for some reason.Of all the rooms, the flower room remains on top of my list, the prison set up and then the Camping site.Besides the intricate details added to the rooms not to mention the statues, I love the provision of extra costumes & tiaras for a more decent photo-op.We purchased combined tickets online for Tussauds & The Dungeons at a reasonable price.This wax museum is suitable for all ages!#Day2

Great experience with the family. Nice to visit when raining.

It was good but not that great. The madam tussauds in London still beats all the others I have seen. There are some wax figured but all in all they were not that spectacular. It did not feel like much efforts were put into all the figures.. My best wax figure was Morgan Freeman.. Which unfortunately I forgot to take his pic

Whenever I am in a city that has a Madame Tussauds, I definitely make an effort to go and this location was no different. I am not sure how busy they usually are but I felt like I had the place to myself which was awesome! I got selfies with all the greatest celebrities. Especially the photo with my girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston!

It was fun. It was just a Madame Tussauds at the end of the day however. We wanted to do the San Francisco Dungeon but it was closed that day so they let us do Madame Tussauds instead which we had done in various other locations. Its pretty much the same stuff.

Very friendly service team - our family had a wonderful time there.Other than wax statues, there is a small section where you can pay $12 pp to experience some VR games, which was fun for the kids.Overall, pleasant experience, only that the collection didn’t seem as big as other cities.

This place is definitely worth the money and the time! I loved how interactive it was, the kids had a blast going through it. A must see if in San Francisco!

Great place, very touristy. The celebrity figures are very well made. The tour wont take more than a hour if youre slow.

Everything was great they have wax sculpters of every famous person ever including presidents except Trump which kinda makes sense since its in Mexico XD. This place has the friendliest staff I have ever met , that mixed along with the great showmanship and detailed wax models make my personal experience here a 9/10

To be honest, I was a little freaked out about how realistic this figures were. The path laid out is well done and each person has a great description of random facts and important details. The price was maybe a little high but a lot of work went into each of these figures so it makes sense.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING you have to see it for yourself the wax figures looks so life like ( I jumped a couple times) ... I want to go back!! Definitely worth the money!!

A must see if youve never been to a wax museum before. Ive lived in Northern California my whole life and have never gone to a wax museum. It was definitely interesting to see the many different people who were made into wax models. Also theres music playing through each type of room that adds to the feel and vibe of the themed rooms. Very cool I must say. Admission fee is approximately $25.00. Next door they also had like a Dungeon Exhibit but the day my friend and I went, it was closed. There was a signage promoting if we bought the tickets to the Dungeon Exhibit next door which was around $30.00, we would have gotten free admission to the wax museum. Missed our chance but overall a lively experience. There are also little activities throughout the museum that they offered like hand wax pouring for a small fee but that day they were not offering it. If you just walk through youll finish quickly. If you want to take pictures for your social feed it will take at at least 30mins-1hr or more depending on how extensive you want your shots to be. I manage to take pictures many a little too much but I always like looking back at them a day later for fun. I took a lot of mini video clips too it never hurts. Video clips are a little more fun and reminds me of the 90s with the camcorder days. Whenever I re-watch them, its like reliving the moment during that day, fills me with childlike wonder so it just makes you feel good. Again if youve never gone I recommend going. Its definitely fun to be right next to one(or many) of your favorite idols and you also get to see how tall they actually are. I found myself trying to get under the armpits of a couple of them just to see how tall they actually were while trying to take a selfie. Its a lot harder than you think and was unsuccessful. Try it for yourself. ️

The staff was friendly and created a fun environment. This is definitely a place Id recommend. Its not expensive and its somewhere that the whole family can enjoy. The figures are very interactive and youre allowed to touch most of them which is great for photo-ops. I was a tiny bit disappointed with the amount of figures they had, but its still great nonetheless. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

Make sure you check opening days and times before you buy tickets. We bought tickets not knowing they’re closed some days during the week. Emailed them, they won’t reply and you will not get a refund.

Loved it ....the tour takes as long as u like ...several places to pose with icons even a oval office desk set up ....worth the money they look real and even explain how it is done ...not scary kid friendly

Very very nice. At the price of 25 usd, or free if you get the big bus tour, you will enjoy with two floors of wax statues of the most famous san francisco celebrities and others. Recommended.

So this place has a lot of hyper realistic wax mannequins. It is slightly creepy sometimes how lifelike they are it kind of makes you feel like theyre about to jump out at you. All in all is a great photo opportunity and something you should do if you feel like being very touristy. Would recommend to anyone coming to San Francisco!

Great place. Spent an hour doing through the museum. Staff was great and it was very customer friendly.

Fun. Kids loved it. Worth the price we plan on going back again soon !!

We went to Aquarium of the Bay down the road and got entry to here for free.I enjoyed seeing and taking photos, I am glad we didnt pay entry to this as it is a quick attraction to complete.It was also not as busy so getting photos was pretty good. There is a variety of people to see an Im sure you will at least recognize one person!

Took my dad for his first visit. We all had a great time. Not crowded, easy to get pictures with the ones we wanted.

Its fun visiting this place. Kids can enjoy. It can easily take 2 to 3 hours if you click pictures with all. Entry ticket is $25 per adult.

Great place for everyone. Sports fans will enjoy as well as music icons through the ages. I visited with my daughter and had a great time. I didnt think a wax museum would be fun...I was wrong. Interacting with the figures was a blast and I think I saw 2 other patrons. I would visit another wax museum again.

Really nice atmosphere, well thought out exhibits. Probably the most attractive of the Madame Tussauds. Not as many figures as other ones, seemed a bit sparse. Figures are very lifelike, though a few angles seem flat or unnatural. Definitely worth a stop, but would recommend getting a Go card rather paying full price.

Its awesome but I wish it had more to see. A lot of famous ones are always missing (such as The Beatles). Overall really cool.

So fun and totally interactive. fun wax figures of lots of celebrities means fun for anyone, no matter interests or age. photos encouraged and lots of props for you to pose with. i recommend strongly.

What a great day... we had a blast.. good value

A bit pricey but with some unique characters that represent the star studded state and unique location of San Francisco

Most wax figures were good. A few were really good (realistic). It was a good time! Had some of my all time favorite athletes, movie stars and idols growing up.

Ive been to 3 other wax museums in the country, this one was relatively small but had my 2 favourite figures. Not very crowded which gives you time to look and take pictures at a leisurely pace.

This place was great, I got a free ticket after going to the aquarium. Definitely recommend walking around if you want to kill an hour in the bay.

Weve always wanted to try popping into one of these places... We finally did do to you getting a package deal with the San Francisco dungeon.It was a good experience. Not the most cost-effective way to spend an hour but still definitely something to do on a slow day.

Truly amazing place! Everyone who is coming to San Francisco, must visit this place. Highly recommended !!!

I had a really good time specially since it was the first Madame Tussauds museum I visited. Good number of wax statues. They have explained how the wax statues are made, loved that bit.

Tussauds was museums are always top notch.

This is the first and hopefully of many to come visits of Madame Tussauds. The wax statues are good but still feel they could have been way better, some were on point while others were just a little bit off. I loved the ambiance of the room, its so photogenic and peaceful. The day I was here there werent any other people around so it was almost as if we had an exclusive tour of the place. Al Capone for me was totally on point, heck he even looked real but Serena Williams and a few others werent done any justice at all, they just looked fake. But overall it was a nice experience meeting the inanimate equivalents of the Hollywood stars.

Next to fisherman’s wharf. Funny place to go.Recommended

We had a blast!! Everyone looks so real it was crazy!! I love how you can take so many pictures and actually touch the celebritys!

Whats the point of buying tickets online if you still have to get in line in order to get ur ticket scanned to get a paper ticket and then get in another line to be able to enter.

Really nice gift shop, like that they have wax people on display before you get in. one person commented that the wax of Mark Zuckerberg looked very much like him.

Conveniently located by fishermans wharf, this wax museum is decent but on the small side.

Fun experience that has a range of historical,sporting and musical figures, along with local history. This can be found on the main road a short stroll north of pier 39

What a fun day! My husband and I came to San Francisco for our honeymoon. This was one of the stops on our trip. This place has changed for the better since I was a kid! The staff were friendly. The exhibits were new and life-like! I highly recommend that anyone spending a day in the Embarcadero, come spend some time at Madame Tussauds!

We did the Alcatraz Break Out Room. Excellent for staff team building as a fun work event. There were a lot of laughs and everyone jumped in to help solve the puzzle and many strengths were revealed. Great for fun memories, bonding and fun photos.However, there are some BIG safety concerns and a critique:Critique first-Small loss of one star since they did not tell us when we arrived we had to sign waivers or we could not do it. They only have one tablet and so each person signed in one by one. It took 15-20 minutes. That was a drag as we all had to stand around waiting. Poorly done, M Tussauds. You can afford more than one tablet; they are cheap if not free these days.BIG SAFETY CONCERN-Restrooms are in the basement in the dark. Its awful. Totally unsafe! Do not take elderly or those with special needs. I was escorted down there by the actor who played our jail warden. Then he left me down there. I had to find my way out in the dark. That should be illegal!!! Other customers were coming down in a small group to find the restrooms and when I came around a dark corner one of the men screamed and jumped back. We were all startled it was not comfortable or fun or funny. They definitely lost a star for that too. There should be safety lighting and there is none.Thankfully, there was no fire or earthquake and no loss of life. City inspectors need to hear of this.

Interesting theres no occupant in the oval.

Honestly a bit disappointing... took maybe 15min to walk through (and that was taking our time) and the celebrities in there were meh... it was totally empty when we went. I’m glad we didn’t pay for tickets (they were included in our bus tour) because that would’ve been a waste. I wouldn’t go again.

First time at any wax museum. Holy heck, this was a blast.We attended for my daughters birthday earlier this month. Not too crowded, and tons to see.All of the figures were nicely done, some bettwr than others but you knew right away who each one was.Clean, and well cared for. We were not rushed through and we did take our time.Bring your camera, theyll also take photos of you and your group before you start. Super fun!

Nice realistic statues.

A quick tour can be done in 30 minutes or so. Its a basic wax museum and a little pricey... but given the location the price wasnt out of line.

This is a great place to visit and take photos. All of the wax figures look so amazingly real. It is so much fun just to walk through and take pictures and pose with the wax stars.

Who doesn’t love transformers.. I mean I know I do!

Such a great little tour of famous people!

I enjoyed! Specially the area of the past US Presidents. Just wish they have Sarah Michelle Gellar from Buffy.

This place is nice. Awesome work done and we enjoyed a lot.

Alot of the figures were dead on. They gave you a short story about the person also so if you didnt know who it was you could just read the info card.They offered props so you could take pics with the figures which was the coolest part.The place was clean and well organized. It seem small from the outside but surprisingly it wasnt. Id go again.

Place is very cool with extremely life like wax figures. This particular museum has a local flair to it.

A very interesting place to visit. I would gladly recommend it for anyone who has never been.

Worth a visit if you have never been to a Madame Tussauds before.

We had a great time. Loved how we could take photos with all the figures. Londons seem a tad bit better but the virtual reality opportunity makes this a must do!

Very detailed and interesting, but maybe it was cooler before we had the internet so readily and know exactly what they look like? Not a large selection and very expensive. Only went because we had the free tickets from going to the dungeon experience next door. Wouldn’t pay to go see just the wax figures.

Sooooooo much fun!! Tri-level building and lots of opportunity to stand, pose, and kiss your favorite wax figured celebrity crush, athlete, musician, president.....the list goes on. Conveniently located right near Pier 39, along with Ripley’s Believe It or Not, on the beautiful wharf of the San Francisco Bay. ***For military, don’t forget to ask for that discount. (See pictures)

Much more interactive than I expected. Definitely not some old boring museum.

This place is so much more than just your average wax museum! Here, you are encouraged to interact with the various figures, in unique settings thru provided props and your own imagination. My friends and I spent a very entertaining and enjoyable afternoon here! Highly recommended, especially for those Instagram and selfie lovers!

This place was way more fun than I thought it would be.

A fun experience. This place is smaller than the one in other cities.

STAFF CALLED ME NAMES. WAX HAND A WASTE OF MONEY. Great displays of famous wax figures and being able to take photos with them was worth the admission though unless you like to buy a photo of yourselves in front of a green screen when entering, excuse yourselves with the photographer and get on the elevator. The disappointing part was as we exited the museum into the gift shop (surprise!)that our ticket came with a wax hand coupon with a employee that wasnt helpful at all. He ask my wife and I what we wanted after taking our coupon, and me being my first time here, ask what do you have? He seemed bored and not wanting to be there and soon I was feeling the same way. As I was asking questions about my choices and the process, my wife ask if he minded my questions, her sensing his lackadaisical attitude where he told her I was a nerd, as if I wasnt in front of him. Anyway we finished the process and I noticed that the wax hand with to come with a preservation kit. I asked him about the kit and he explained what it did, but did not include it in our box as we found out later. Waste of money. Dont get the wax hand, enjoy the museum with a camera and run, dont walk through the gift shop.

Awesome attractions and great for the family. Was a bit crowded but we went on a Sunday-- all in all , great experience

Fun experience and worth your money if you do the Dungeon and Madame Tussads bundle. Fun and quirky to do in SF as a touristy thing.

Well done, but to short

So much to look at.. I cant wait to come back with my kids. The wax status looked so realistic it was amazing

ALWAYS look for an online coupon. Always ask the cashier if there is a current promotion. Lots of fun too be had here. If you havent seen it, its worth a look!

Went for a bachelorette party and it was a blast! Our host was great. Definitely recommend for a fun group activity.

Was an awesome Walk thru . So life like . Loved E T

Nice. Almost realistic statues

So realistic! Lovely design and I love how you can see the process.

A must do in San Fran!! So fun and all the latest and greatest stars in wax!

Awesome time with friends! We are to take pictures and you are your own tourist so you arent rushed. Its displayed so nice I loved it! I got the combo that was $25 for the wax museum and the dungeon and honestly it was the best $25 I have ever spent!

Great place love the way you can go right up to the wax figures and di selfie shots a must see very realistic looking

Good position near Pier 39. The usual assortment of celebs although I think this one seems smaller than others Ive been to in New York and London (could be wrong though)

Very interesting place to visit. Walk around to see all kinds of people. They look very similar to the real person....

We got the ticket for free - given when visiting other museum. We were not specially interested to visit the museum and not even interested in buying the ticket. But it was finally quite a lot of fun!

This location was so much fun. And they had the station to make your own wax hands!

Whats the point of buying tickets online if you still have to get in line in order to get ur ticket scanned to get a paper ticket and then get in another line to be able to enter.

So realistic, I actually thought one was real... it would be nice to have music playing throughout the whole tour, but regardless this completely interactive museum is a must experience.

Had a wonderful time, Beyonce kept talking about Blue Ivy, them damn twinz, and Jay Z. B.Obbizzel was cool. Jackie Chan came out of no where. Had a great time, its even better when you are sauced. Whoopi Goldberg was surprisingly stiff.

Not the most jam packed, but enough to keep you occupied for 30-45 minutes. Thoughtfully chosen wax figures to display, a little bit for everyone.... plus a quick run through of how the figures come to life and a bit about Madam Tussaud herself. My family enjoyed our quick jaunt through here.

High quality exhibits and pretty fun, but since its a franchise and you can see the same exhibits in many cities, Id recommend doing something more local.

Take your time in the rooms cause its pretty fast also buy the tickets online on thier website not at the walk up you will save half the price. I had fun. Also dont buy the pictures at the end unless you really like them I regretted buying them.

Really nice atmosphere, well thought out exhibits. Probably the most attractive of the Madame Tussauds. Not as many figures as other ones, seemed a bit sparse. Figures are very lifelike, though a few angles seem flat or unnatural. Definitely worth a stop, but would recommend getting a Go card rather paying full price.

Good place to visit the wax idols .. you can some awesome pictures here to take ..

First time in wax museum! Impressive!

This is a great place to visit and take photos. All of the wax figures look so amazingly real. It is so much fun just to walk through and take pictures and pose with the wax stars.

Cool if you are into this kind of attraction!

Pretty cool place with wax figures, had Robin Williams, Santana, and Mark Zuckerberg in the front. Expensive to go upstairs, adult tickets $20 something and childs ticket $19

An excellent place. Spend the whole day with family. My Mothers BIRTHDAY, and my Sister wedding anniversary.

Fun little event to get out of the cold San Francisco night. Fun way to expose the kids to the Hippie movement of the 1960s without feeling awkward!

Lots of selfie opportunities..They even give you costumes to dress up... And some of the models are uncanny.. others are just ok... But at the end of the day its just not very big for the money....

The best wax museum ive ever been to, and the contemporary figures in touch with both modern and classic pop culture

Have alot of collection, but somehow i see some of the collection not really looks the real person.The place wasnt to big, they were 3 -4 floor. Have lift for whelchair.
