What To Expect

Tower of London

Keeping a watchful eye over the city and the river Thames since its founding in 1079, the Tower of London has had many faces: as a mint, an observatory, a zoo, an armoury, a royal palace, a treasury and most notoriously, as a place of execution. Home to both the Beefeaters and the Crown Jewels today, the Tower’s story is one of intrigue, scandal and ceremony, definitely best uncovered with a private guide and a morning entrance before the crowds arrive. Upon meeting your private guide, you will first discover the iconic sites on the outer walls such as Traitor’s Gate and Tower Hill before entering the complex to view Britain’s most treasured royal artefacts, walk in the footsteps of Anne Boleyn, see the armour of Henry VIII, visit William the Conqueror’s White Tower, meet the ravens and learn everything you could ever need to know about this most historic of London’s palaces.

Sean is excellent. He knows his history and lays it out very clearly about the Tower and everything that happened there. It was unfortunate that he was unable to accompany us inside the Crown jewels exhibit and the Tower itself because of the summer school break, but that was not his fault and he was very good at explaining to us what we would be seeing when we went in. I would highly recommend Sean for other tours and he is very knowledgeable about the history of the UK and especially London. He’s also a very nice man. One thing that was not on our tour, but I would recommend it is the torture chamber exhibit.
