- Tower of London - Situated along the River Thames, the Tower of London is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a rich history spanning nearly 1,000 years as a royal palace, prison, and the home of the Crown Jewels. The Yeoman Warders, also known as Beefeaters, are former military personnel who maintain its traditions.
This unique meet-and-greet occurs outside the King’s House, a restricted area typically inaccessible to the public, where Beefeaters and their families reside. This exceptional opportunity allows participants to hear their personal stories, ask questions, and capture a memorable photo with one of London’s most iconic figures.
- The Crown Jewels - The Crown Jewels are some of the most cherished treasures of the British monarchy, securely housed within the Tower of London. This stunning collection includes royal crowns, scepters, orbs, and ceremonial regalia used in coronations and state events for over 600 years. Notable pieces include the Imperial State Crown, embellished with nearly 3,000 gemstones, and the Sovereign’s Sceptre, featuring the world’s largest clear-cut diamond, the Cullinan I.
Beyond their stunning beauty, the Crown Jewels represent the power and continuity of the monarchy. Guarded in the Jewel House, they are a must-see attraction for London visitors. Viewing them up close is a rare and unforgettable experience, offering insight into the grandeur and traditions of British royalty.
- White Tower - Constructed by William the Conqueror in the late 11th century, the White Tower is the oldest and most iconic part of the fortress. This formidable Norman stronghold was built to assert control over London and has served as a royal residence, armory, and even a prison.
Inside, visitors can explore the Royal Armouries collection, showcasing an impressive array of historic weapons, suits of armor worn by kings, and medieval artifacts. Highlights include Henry VIII’s formidable armor, intricate Renaissance firearms, and the medieval execution block.
The White Tower also contains the Chapel of St. John, one of the best-preserved examples of Norman church architecture in England. With its towering stone walls and captivating exhibits, the White Tower provides insight into the military strength and political power that shaped Britain’s history.
