This was by far and away the best tour my wife and I have ever taken. The reason Nigel our tour guide. His knowledge of everything and sense of humor made this tour. If you are going to the Tower ask for Nigel if you can he makes it worth every penny.

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning tour of Tower of London and Crown Jewels. Getting there for the first tour of the day helped us avoid the crazy long lines to see the jewels and the rest of the tour was great. Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging.
