An enjoyable day out. Crown jewels were amazing, We didn't do the Beefeater tour, which tells all the gory details, so we didn't get the full grasp of the place. Lots to do & a worthwhile place to visit.

It was a sunny but cold day. It can be better to go in a warm day. You generally walk outside on the walls. Free tours are too crowded. Audia guides are helpfull and you use your own pace. Dont forget to go St catherina pier after visiting the tower to have your drink while looking to the bridge.

Good way to spend a couple of hours. Recommend you start with the free one hour Yemen tour which is entertaining and gives just the right balance of history and context

Little girls, Crown Jewels, prisons, castles, awesome history, beefeaters, traitor's gate, what more could you ask for to entertain a family? The crowds are really well handled too.

The tour we were on was so so. The Beefeaters give a much better tour and they are there all day long. You have to see this place for its history and of course the Crown Jewels. Well worth it.

Little disappointed that this attraction closes at 5:30pm. We came at 4:45 and were told it takes 2-3 hours to see the attraction. We got through about half in 45 minutes, including the crown jewels. It for sure was worth it. There is also some very interesting war history on site to see.

Beefeater Mark was our guide for the tour of the grounds. Considering he probably had about 100 or so people to herd around he was delightfully witty and entertaining. He was full of historical information, great interaction with the group and his voice carried so that no one would miss a word. The rest of the castle was definitely interesting...

The Tower of London has seen over a thousand years of UK history, and in many ways I'm desperately jealous of that fact! It has seen upheaval after upheaval over its life, with the building changing to suit its owners and its uses.
The Tower of London should be on everyone's MUST-SEE list. Learn the history, understand its significance, appreciate...
