Don’t miss the Tower of London! - We were thrilled to visit the Tower of London and learn about its long history. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertained us with many stories! One of the highlights was meeting Emma, a Beefeater who answered all of our questions and took photos with us. Very fun tour!

My wife made me go and I do not regret it! - At first I was concerned that we were actually going to see the real jewels but we did 😍. It was fascinating. We truly enjoyed the grounds, the history and the stories as told by beefy409. He was fun and funny 😂.

Nice to meet a Beefeater! - Good tour,' meeting the Beefeater was so nice and he was so knowledgeable; crown jewel viewing a bit rushed, but excellent tour nevertheless.

The only way to see the tower - Paedar was a great tour guide. It was just the right level of information and jokes (not too corny) it wasn’t too much heavy stuff. Lots of deep history our guide was clearly knowledgeable and able to translate that for all audiences. He was very personable. We were able to ask questions and the size of the group was small enough to get around. You should plan to take an hour or more after the tour to do your own wandering around maybe even pack a sandwich? We weren’t able as we headed to a Sunday Roast. I may go back another time to wander the other parts. It is a lot of time on your feet so if you’re not good standing around there’s no place to sit. This might not be the thing for you.

Not the best tour - Our tour guide was not engaging. Looked at the ground the whole time she was talking. Spent 30 minutes talking about the crows and flew past other historical sites. Loved our time with the beefeater. Sad when we had to go back to our regular part of the tour. Slowest walking tour I’ve ever taken.

Don’t Waste Your Money - This tour was a waste of money. Guide was subpar. Shared very little interesting information. Walked very slow, her earpieces and microphone didn’t work, and it was a waste of our time and money. Better to just listen the Beefeaters and go at your own pace. Guides can’t go inside so she tried to prebrief the info before we entered the vault but we could easily read what she shared. Better yet, just get the audio tour supplied by Tower of London. This felt like a total scam for what we paid.
