About this experience
The Tower of London holds nearly 1,000 years of royal history, and this tour gets you closer to it than most visitors ever go. Timed entry takes you past the ticket queues, and an expert guide brings the fortress to life through stories of royal betrayal, political intrigue, and centuries of captivity. The tour moves through the Tower's key landmarks: Traitors' Gate, where prisoners once arrived by boat; Tower Green, site of Tudor executions; the Jewel House, home to coronation crowns and the Cullinan diamonds; and the Bloody Tower, where two young princes disappeared in 1483. The tour's signature moment is a private 15-minute audience with a real Yeoman Warder at the King's House, an area closed to the public. Ask questions, hear royal gossip, and snap a photo with one of London's most iconic guardians.
