A wonderful and varied experience, with access to several centuries of British history presented in many different buildings and rooms. So many things to see and do that one could easily spend the whole day there and still not see it all!

Visitors were light on Thursday december 19 at 9am. Even around 10-11 there was no line for the Crown Jewels. Went with my 11 year old son. 10 am public tour was enough.

What an impressive place if you love history and gory details this is the place for you, do get on a beefeater tour they are free and it’s so much more interesting as they tell you all the “details “ of the prisoners and how they died do check when the beefeater tours stop running as we nearly missed it and they really do make it more exciting especially for children! I would recommend taking a packed lunch as the area surrounding the Tower is very expensive and the restaurant is as well. We were there about 3 hours. The Crown Jewels were impressive the children had a wonderful time it’s great for any age but wear comfortable shoes as there’s lots of cobble stones around the tower and inside and they can hurt your feet and back!!

We began with the beefeater tour with yeoman warder Scott Kelly a k a Beefy409, and he was absolutely delightful! He was funny, entertaining and got the crowd involved. He told stories and really brought the history to life. Afterwards we were able to explore on our own and see the crown jewels. It was a very fun and memorable experience!

We were hosted by Des Hardy, Yeoman Warder. A fabulous Beefeater who gave us the tour. He was beguiling and funny. A great day out and amazing to hear of the History of the tour and see The Crown Jewels, White Tower and the iconic Tower of London. There is NOWHERE on earth like this! Fact!!

I went on tour years ago where we were walked through the Tower. It was much better than now - easier to hear and ask questions and more historical facts.

You do need to get there 30 minutes early just to get in line. The lines were long but very well organized. It was a wonderful tour. Highly recommended.

After watching several historical TV series in which the Tower appears, I found courage and visited the Tower. Many museums are free in London but not the Tower of London. So nothing for those who want to spend money on anything other than culture. I am very pleased. Of course it is still unpleasant to walk around the place where Ann Boylen was beheaded on orders en her beloved husband and king. He must have lost his mind when he fell off his horse. Now I've felt the wings of history. An important part of all our history.
