Enjoyed our visit, plenty to see and spent around 3 and a half hours. The yeoman free tours that take around 45 minutes and go every hour are a must, out guide Darren was great. We had no que for the Crown Jewels, a benefit of going mid week and out of holiday season. The cafe was also very good, quality of the food was very good and reasonable price. Overall, very enjoyable day and would recommend, you can get two for tickets through the national rail offer.

Plenty of time to wander the many areas of interest in the tower, and having tickets already for the jewels exhibit was very helpful. Keep in mind that if you want a tour by a yeoman, you have to find the meet spot and wait until 10am for the first tour.

The Tower of London is truly a plaace where history comes alive. We spend a full morning here and it was time well spent. The absolute highlight was the Crown Jewels. Despite the queue, seeing the sheer size and brilliance of the diamonds (especially the ones in the Scepter and Crown) is an awe-inspiring experience that photos simply cannot capture. great place to visit

We arrived 5 mins late and they were gone. Asked an employee who pretty much ignored me and pointed me in a direction without saying much. Worked out for the best-we did the whole thing independently and didn’t need a tour guide to do so. It can be done just as effectively solo.

Haven't been here for years and the experience has only improved. This place is always worth a visit and never disappoints. When we were there part of the crown jewel exhibition was suddenly closed due to 4 people throwing trifle: real compliments to the staff at this point, you did an excellent job with 'us' visitors. The guest I took loved the place. Visit and take your time, this is not a quick visit: walk enjoy the atmosphere and soak up the history, every time there is something new to see. As a piece of advice, buy an annual ticket if you can because you will want to go back.

A visit to the Tower is a fun experience. Reservation is definitely indicated, very popular activity. You move from one tower to another, so you are regularly outdoors. The Crown Jewels exhibition is impressive. During our visit there was also a changing of the guard, comparable to that of Buckingham Palace at 2 pm.

When we tried to access our tickets through the app it kept rerouting me back to the email, but even then I could not access the tickets. I tried messaging the tour operator in real time to see what was going on. They did not respond so we had to buy tickets at there. I tried requesting a refund but it was denied. Very disappointed with the customer service since I’ve used Viator many times and never had an issue.

The Yeoman Wardens tour is very informative and entertaining. The layout for self guided tour set up to move people efficiently and be able to see everything

Beautiful excursion.We advise you to come at 9:00 am because no one seduces and so we could see the jewelry quietly and without crowds. From 10:00 the crowd arrives! Lots of interesting things to see by jewelry in an exceptional place by architecture and history. You can stay two or three hours without being bored. I recommend

A wonderful experience visiting the Tower of London. The grounds are easy to navigate so that you see all the buildings and learn about the rich history. I especially enjoyed the Crown Jewels display.
