Once upon a time

5.00Excellent display of historical times. Easy access for the able. Needed more costumed performers which would have delighted the crowds.
Great- Must See

5.00Family friendly. Much of the grounds were self guided but there were always people happy to answer questions and interact. Free tour with the Beefeaters were entertaining and very interesting. We spent 5 hours there and saw most areas- but we could have happily spent another hour.
A great adventure

5.00This was so much fun! Do plan on spending at least half day here. We arrived early and were glad we did to avoid the crowds especially at the Crown Jewels exhibit. Be sure to join a Warder guided tour. It is included with your ticket and our Warder Mark was super.
A great London attraction

5.00Very interesting history. Lots of walking and steps so not great for anyone with disabilities to see everything. Would recommend for a good taste of an old castle
Lack of information and wrong description

1.00The ticket was for 3:30 pm and said that there will be a 30 minutes guided headwater tour. We reached there at 3:25 pm and was told that the last headwater guided tour goes at 3:15 pm so we will have to go on our own. If that was the case then why did I get a ticket for 3:30 pm with this information that I will get a 30 minutes guided headwater guided tour. This was not good. Lack of information is not good for such tours. I could not even see much as the place closed early and without knowing where to go. We missed many parts of the tower.
Very cool history

4.00I think this is an awesome place to visit. My 6 yo didn’t appreciate it so much. I think when coming with younger children, it’s definitely a different experience than when I came without children many years ago. If you’re into history, 1000% come here!
I would highly recommend...
