What to expect

Experience the infamous Tower of London on this exciting tour with exclusive access to one of the sites' famous Beefeater guards!

This landmark is most known for housing the Crown Jewels and for being the site of execution for three Queens of England. The local coordinator will give you an inspiring introduction to your experience, the tower itself, and the Beefeaters. You'll then be led in to meet one of the Tower’s Yeoman Warders – more commonly known as Beefeaters. Dedicated only to your small group, this Beefeater will explain the story and traditions of this elite guard and will be available to take pictures and answer questions.

After the tour, you are free to stay in the Tower to explore its vast history. Visit Tower Green for a chance to learn about the fascinating lives of the royals who lived, worked, and died within its walls. Explore the famous White Tower to take in the incredible beauty and history of this unique destination from a truly breathtaking vantage point.

As the tour begins early in the morning, you will have the opportunity to be among the first visitors to the Jewel House to see the spectacular Crown Jewels, which have been held here for the last 600 years.

    Ponían que era una experiencia de 1,5 horas. La guía solamente estuvo media hora. Y otra media hora con personal de la Torre!

    Excellent experience inside the tower! A word of caution: this is not private. It’s a small group - can be as many as about 30. There’s no way to get inside “early” - you’re arriving early to meet with the tour operator who groups you & walks you to entrance. That part feels a bit disorganized.

    Traveled as a couple


    Diese geführte Tour kann ich nur jedem ans Herz legen! Wir waren begeistert. Ein tolles Highlight mit dem Beefeater zu quatschen und mehr über sein Leben im Tower zu erfahren. Extra Tipp: Früh morgens buchen, dann hat man den Tower fast für sich alleine und kommt auch schneller zu den Kronjuwelen. Insgesamt muss man hierfür mehr Zeit einplanen, da man nach der Tour noch alleine alles erkunden kann. Insgesamt war es super spannend und würden wir nochmal machen.

    Prima organisatie, begeleiding naar de Tower met algemene uitleg context en dan de uitleg van de Beefeater zelf was ook heel goed. Beide heel vriendelijke gidsen met soms wat grappige luchtige uitspraken ertussen, schitterend!

    Bezoek en uitleg schitterend! Alleen jammer dat je bij onvoorziene problemen de gids niet kon bereiken om te verwittigen dat je laat was (verkeerde metro genomen) we hebben uiteindelijk geluk gehad dat we ze tijdig hebben gevonden

    My only regret was that I did not allow enough time to spend at the Tower of London.
