Complete Tower of London Tour: Opening Ceremony, Early Access Crown Jewels & River Cruise

We enjoyed our tour of the Tower of London for the most part. However, it was a bit disappointing that the guide didn’t bring us in any of the attractions. She told us outside what was in each building and told us to circle back after the tour was over. Likewise, the guide’s history sort of jumped all over from century to century so it was a bit tough to follow storytelling. We still enjoyed our tour and it was great to have access to the Crown Jewels before everyone else, so that was fun. So was the ceremony where they unlock the gates. But it’s a bit pricey for what it was.

Sal, our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. Made the experience memorable

Amazing!

Amber our guide was extremely knowledgeable and clear to understand with the best earpiece to hear everthing that she had to say. Would highly rec ommend the trip.

Amber was fantastic…very knowledgeable about history and the Tower and a great sense of humor to boot! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned much more than we would have on our own.

I was very disappointed with, what I would call false advertising. The title of tour is VIP Opening Ceremony…, the tour did not do anything with the opening ceremony. When we booked our tour we were looking forward to being a part of that, however we weren’t. I would have never spent the amount of money we did for the tour if we would have known the opening ceremony wasn’t part of it.

Paul was a great tour guy. Easy to follow. Enjoyed his comments and he answered questions easily. Enjoyed my tour very much.

The tour was very informative. It was definitely worth the price and getting up early to see the opening ceremony and the crown jewels before it got crowded! The tour guide had a lot of great information and stories about the tower and the history. I did have one complaint, the tour guide tried to discourage us from going into see the jewels right away and went on talking until some of the people said they were going in anyway. This was not a good call by the guide as it was getting crowded and you had to manuever around more people to be able to see the jewels and read the descriptions inside the cases. Seeing the opening ceremony and the jewels before crowds are the whole reason most people pay the extra money for this tour. I do recommend this tour. I hope to return to the Tower at a later date and see more.

We went to Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London, both days were with Paul, and it was the best tour we've had. Lots of tidbits of history and colorful story that we didn't get from other tours. We would recommend 5 stars and request Paul as the guide. We're from Montana USA.
