Louise, the tour guide we... - Louise, the tour guide we met first was lovely, as a Brit myself it was nice to see how welcoming she was to international visitors. She was very knowledgeable about the Tower and was a perfect introduction before we met Tam, the Yeoman warder who continued the tour when we were inside the grounds. The Tower of London is spectacular and the history of my country of birth is always interesting so this tour was perfect for me.

Great way to get in before the crowds - David was awesome! This is a great way to get in before the crowds and see the crown jewels without a huge crowd. The warden was great and I learned more about beefeaters.
