Brilliant day, well organised and so informative as huge Tudor fans we will be back! Beefeater called Darren was a goldmine of information and clearly enjoys his job.

Plan on spending time here if you want to get the full experience there is a lot to see and crowds can make it difficult to maneuver around especially with all the school trips running around.

Tower of London is a MUST SEE on your trip - I spent 4 hours here! I did the Yeoman tour, which was slightly disappointing as it was only an hour and there were a LOT of people (40 maybe?) within the tour, which may make it difficult to hear depending on where you’re standing. I found that the tower was just as doable on my own or with the audio guides

Tons of very interesting history and so much to look at! I like how the tour is self-guided and you can spend as much time as you want at a given spot. Very well done!

Booked online with TripAdvisor for a 3:30 admission. One thing that was a bit misleading in the description— you are not part of a guided tour group with a Beefeater per se. You and anyone else who has bought an entry ticket whether online or at the ticket office meet at a sign and await the beefeater to arrive and begin the tour. There are designated times for the Beefeater tours that are not displayed on the TripAdvisor site. This part should be worded better in the description because our ticket for 3:30 was 15 min after the last tour of the day. Luckily we were able to catch them at the first stop. Basically the Beefeater stands in front of each building in the complex, gives a bit of history about each and suggestions for what to take note of inside. Our guide was very funny and informative so I enjoyed that part but you do not explore the tower buildings with a guide. After he tells about each part you disperse and explore at your leisure. I actually preferred going on my own because i hate the corralling that goes along with huge groups. Plan 3 hours to see everything. Know that there are a lot of steep old staircases so be mindful if you have small children, elderly or bad knees! Tickets online allow you to skip the ticket office on the opposite side of the entrance to the tower so it saves some steps.

It was great till I did get the QR code for this trip and we couldn’t go in. Had to go to Starbucks to charge my phone because it died then the email came through. Did not get to do the torment tour missed my time because of this and they canceled the next one. Other than that it was good.

No queues to get into Tower, we met up with Beefeater tour who took us around the tower. His commentary was both entertaining and informative. We spent all day at The Tower and were lucky enough to see The Password Ceremony.

Excellent explanation by Yeoman Darren Hardy. He was very interactive and great sense of humor. Knew his stuff. We had an outstanding visit overall.

Absolutely loved it. Joined the Beefeater tour with Danny the Geordie and had a great 45min tour through history with a flair of comedy gold! Great venue, so much to see, decent cafe, clean toilets...lots of stairs if walking is an issue, well worth the visit.

This was not the tour I thought it was going to be. It is only admission to the Tower of London and then joining the publicly available tour with a Beefeater. I reserved the 0900 time but the tours did not begin until 1000. We did arrive early enough that there was only a very short queue for the Crown Jewels.
