Itinerary
Begin your VIP-level experience by witnessing the Opening Ceremony, a storied military ritual that officially opens one of the most famous monuments in London.
After a quick introduction from the Yeoman Warders who guard the palace, you’ll stroll straight into the Jewel House and be among the first people to see the Crown Jewels. There are no crowds, so after you guide tells you what to look out for, you can take your time and soak in one of the most dazzling collections of riches in the world.
Stroll along the famous Tower Walls, peek inside the refurbished bedroom of Edward I, and say hello to the tower’s resident ravens. Your experience ends on a high note as you step into the White Tower for a full tour of a refurbished medieval castle. Before parting ways, you’ll receive access to a boat pass for a flexible one-way trip on the best sightseeing river cruises in London. Choose the day and time of your trip and depart from either Tower, London Eye, Westminster, or Greenwich piers.

Dominic was amazing and very knowledgeable.
Annie was an amazing guide for our Crown Jewels and Tower of London tour! She was incredibly knowledgeable and a wonderful storyteller who made the history come alive. She was also so enjoyable to be around, making the whole experience feel relaxed and engaging. We really appreciated how she made sure we knew all the highlights and the best things to see during our visit. We highly recommend a tour with Annie!
Rowland did an amazing job and I would definitely recommend having him as your guide. Also we had Scott that was helping him. Both are very knowledgeable and made the tour very interesting.
Very friendly and knowledgeable!! Great tour.
Paul was a great guide. Very kind and knowledgeable. We went on a Saturday morning and it wasn’t too busy.
Paul did a phenomenal job in showing us the best of everything in London. There’s no way you’d ever be able to see, know, and do all of this without an expert like him.
We had such a great day with Karen! She was so fun and knowledgeable and we are thankful she took us through London for our first visit
Annie was very knowledgeable and attentive to our questions.

What an incredible day exploring London! We spent seven hours with our guide, Andrew, visiting some of the city’s most iconic landmarks and soaking up centuries of fascinating history. The highlight was finishing our adventure at the Tower of London, where we saw the magnificent Crown Jewels and learned even more about the wild, sometimes brutal, and often downright bizarre history of the British monarchy. From royal intrigue and scandal to power struggles, betrayals, and executions, England’s history certainly isn’t boring! Andrew was fantastic, bringing the stories to life with his incredible knowledge and entertaining commentary. Seven hours flew by! An unforgettable experience and a tour we’d highly recommend to anyone visiting London.
Andrew was wonderful!!! He was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He clearly knows London history and loves the city. We had the most amazing day with him and while there was a significant amount of walking we saw everything we hoped to see. I would absolutely recommend Andrew to guide any tour any time. He was fantastic!
Emanuela shared lots of interesting information. Especially enjoyed watching the opening ceremony.

Great Guide!! A full wealth of knowledge about nearly everything we walked past. He even had a great sense of humor. 10/10 recommend this tour and David!
Great introduction to many of the popular landmarks with extra time at the Tower of London. Obviously a lot of history to review and Andrew was knowledgeable and able to gage our different interests. Fairly quick paced, all of us were prepared for the day. My tour was from 10-4:30 including an hour lunch break. All outdoors except when seeing the Crown Jewels.
Kim was a wonderful guide with plenty of tidbits of knowledge.
Guide great with tremendous knowledge and personality. Cost was a little prohibitive but certainly worth doing. A little glitch with Thames boat ride but Nigel worked it out. Overall excellent day!
Nigel was an amazing guy. Could not have been more informative, clear and friendly. What a great guy. What a great tour.
Our tour guide, Andrew, was very personable. We appreciated his pleasant personality and were very impressed by his extensive knowledge of UK history and the monarchy. We highly recommend this tour!!
Julia was wonderful. So full of knowledge and interesting facts. The day flew by!
Early tour fantastic- full experience and avoids crowds for all places , especially the Crown Jewels. Guide Amber great- knowledgeable, clear, friendly , good pace. Ear piece a little loose and wobbly - distracting. - try to improve please.
Amber was an excellent guide. The entire tour was well paced and informative.
An absolutely amazing experience with David as our tour guide. Great mixture of humour, information, and fun! Also, Davis, if you're reading this, the fish and chips recommendation for lunch was spot on
wonderful experience. Jeremy is the absolute bes. knowledgeable , funny, interesting. truly the best!
Amber was an exceptional guide. We had a lovely time and learned so much about the history of the Tower of London.
Tulip was a fabulous guide. Her knowledge and stories really made this tour. We wouldn’t have enjoyed this tour as much if we had gone on our own.
I am sorry to write this review, but I have to be honest. The tour was not very good. It seemed like this was the first time the tour guide led this tour. She did not know where to go at first, bounced back and forth throughout the site like a ping pong ball, and was very monotonous. Most people stopped listening half way through the tour and some couples left the tour early.
Group of 10. Great tour with lots of information and stories
Liz was just fantastic! Very interesting stories really brought history alive… SO Happy we did this!
Liz was fantastic! Very informative and really brought the things we saw to life!
This was fabulous! So much fun: very very informative !!!

Amazing tour! David was a fantastic tour guide.
