The staff are the Crown Jewels of the Crown Jewels!

5.00The Crown Jewels of the Crown Jewels On a cold January day, this American Anglophile popped into the Tower of London for the first time since high school—36 years later. While in the Crown Jewels gallery, I struck up a conversation with two employees and received the greatest gift of my trip. For 45 minutes, Holly and Luis entertained, educated, and thoughtfully answered every question I had. It was extraordinary. My grandparents met in England during WWII (an American nurse and doctor), and Great Britain has held a special place in my family’s heart for over 80 years. That history made this moment even more meaningful. Holly and Luis—thank you so very much for your time, generosity, and knowledge. You truly made my entire trip, and I’m forever grateful. Run, don’t walk, to the Tower of London to see the Crown Jewels. The history is absolutely fascinating—especially when shared through the stories and anecdotes of such knowledgeable and passionate docents. For most of the conversation I spoke with Luis, who was generous enough to insist I mention Holly as well, who had to move stations — both were warm, welcoming and positively outstanding!
Great tour

4.00St Paul’s is absolutely beautiful. Stayed for a service and explored the cathedral for a few hours. Used the headphones and walking tour audio. Guides available as well
Fabulous experience and well worth it!

5.00WOW! What an incredible day! A dry day yesterday which was perfect to wander around. Absolutely no queue. Our entry time was 1pm but we arrived at 12.10pm and were scanned straight through. We were given a map by friendly staff and encouraged to have a great day. And we really did! The exhibitions were awesome, my favourite being the crown jewels. A travelator took you past the crowns 👑 and as it was super quiet we went round 4 times! Chatted to the guard who was very well informed. Met and chatted to a couple of the staff who we see on the TV series. Loved seeing the ravens roaming free to. The gift shops were full of souvenirs at very reasonable prices. An excellent experience. We spent just over 4 hours in the Tower well worth every penny! Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Yes
Wonderful experience!...

5.00Amazing tour of the tower. Nev our tour guide was hilarious and very informative. We really enjoyed the whole experience. The tour of the crown jewels was very organized and we were able to see so much. The staff everywhere we went was helpful and informative - from Dave who welcomed us and gave us directions on how to make the most of our visit, to Nev the tour guide, to countless staff that were kind and helpful. For example, I have a bad ankle and started limping some - so a staff member took me on a short cut so I would not have to take so many steps. Really can't recommend enough!
Fascinating Historic Site with Plenty to See—Arrive Early

5.00A great experience overall. This was a self-guided visit, and booking tickets online in advance is recommended. Although there were queues, entry was well managed and moved quickly. The visit takes around three hours to see everything properly. The site feels very different as you move through areas representing different periods of history, which adds to the atmosphere and overall experience. We visited first thing on a Sunday; it was already busy and does get crowded as the day goes on. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. A must-visit attraction and well suited to all types of travellers visiting Tower of London.
Amazingly knowledgeable people.

5.00We had booked the ticket to the Tower for 3pm which was a mistake on our part in hindsight. We tagged on to a tour which was part way through but the information given was amazing and informative and delivered with plenty of humour. We really needed an extra hour in the Tower to see everything without rushing. Tickets were well priced through an offer on the Historic Palaces website and were well worth the money. The whole place is very well organised with no queues to contend with, presumably due to the time of year. The Yeoman Warders are so knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions as you wander through the palace. A fantastic trip.
Stunning History!

5.00If you enjoy history and architecture, then the Tower is a must do. Walking the grounds and castle walls are a lot of fun, especially when you can see the ravens flying about. The Crown Jewels are beautiful and a must see as well.
Very bad organised,...
