And you’ll be able to grab that essential photo with the Beefeater guards before being one of the first to see the crown jewels! Of course, your guide will also make sure to lead you through the stories of this centuries-old fortress as you explore the massive grounds here.

Excellent tour. Ariana is well versed, spoke clearly so everyone could hear and understand. Took us to less crowded places and got us into the Crown Jewels before the line got too long. Get your tour with her

We really enjoyed our tour with guide Ben for the Tower of London and Crown Jewels. We were late due to the tube and he had a colleague wait for us to take us to him. He was so full of fun and interesting information. The day before we had gone on a golden tours tour and although it was different it fails in comparison to the tour guy. In the future we will only be booking tour guy tours on any of our future trips. Thank you Ben and the tour guy for the best time ever
Great experience!

Our guide, Ben, was knowledgeable, patient and just over all wonderful. I had my five year old grandchild and he modified some aspects, including her in so she felt a part of the group. He even made sure she had a prime spot to watch the opening ceremony. I would highly recommend him!

This tour was excellent from start to finish, we would highly recommend it!
Skip the line in the morning with no crowds and watching the Beefeaters open the Tower gates , is the only way to go.
Thanks Nick , you knew your history , you were easy to listen to and the added humor was a bonus .
Great site!

Our tour leader was good . Getting to see the Crown Jewels before the crowds and meeting the Beefeaters was a nice addition. I think this site is best for families instead of adults on their own. There were Halloween activities that were made for youngsters.

As a history buff, I loved the background that our guide gave us with the history and tales of the Tower of London. Early entry was key in seeing the Crown Jewels. We totally missed the very long line.

The tour guide, whose name I have unfortunately forgotten, was informative, engaging, and entertaining. She was lovely. It was fun seeing the unlocking of the gate ceremony from close up with the Beefeater’s commentary. This tour was well worth the price.
