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.
