Your Itinerary

1

Your tour begins outside the Tower of London Gift Shop

Meet your professional guide and small group of 10 directly outside the main gift shop. After a quick introduction, use your pre-reserved tickets to bypass the general admission ticket queues and step through the historic outer walls of London’s primary medieval stronghold.

2

Look down on Traitors' Gate

Walk along the outer rings of the fortress where your guide details its transition from an 11th-century royal palace to a notorious prison. View the gloomy water gate where high-profile prisoners arrived by boat from the River Thames to face trial for treason.

3

Walk the cobblestones of historic Tower Green

Stroll through the heart of the complex to stand on the site where noble prisoners met their private ends. Listen to fascinating accounts of the final moments of Anne Boleyn and learn about the functions of the surrounding timber-framed Tudor houses that still stand today.

4

Reveal dark secrets at the sinister Bloody Tower

Continue to the historic apartment complex that earned its grim nickname from decades of political murders and mysterious disappearances. Your guide explains the daily lives of the legendary Yeoman Warders and details the centuries-old superstitions regarding the resident ravens that guard the grounds.

5

View the legendary Crown Jewels independently

Your guide will escort you to the entrance of the Jewel House and provide vital historical context before you step inside on your own. Walk past the secure displays to see coronation crowns, glittering scepters, and the world-famous Cullinan diamonds up close.

6

Climb the historic staircases of the White Tower

Step inside the massive stone keep built by William the Conqueror in 1078 to establish Norman dominance over London. You can independently explore multiple floors of royal armor collections, medieval weaponry, and the intact Romanesque interior architecture of the 11th-century chapel of St. John.

7

Your tour finishes inside the Tower of London

Conclude your independent exploration of the inner wards and exit through the main gates whenever you are ready. You will find yourself steps away from the Tower Hill Underground station, historic Tower Bridge, and plenty of traditional riverside pubs for a relaxing post-tour lunch.
