A beautiful place - This place is a treasure trove of history and fascinating stories. The impressive architecture left us in awe - those ancient walls have seen so much! We couldn't get enough of the Crown Jewels (talk about bling!) and the Yeoman Warders' tours were both informative and hilarious. From the medieval armory to the eerie tales of executions, every corner held a new surprise. It's like stepping into a history book, but way more exciting! A must-visit for anyone in London!

Need at least a ½ day to see this amazing attraction - Very cool experience, but I wish I had a ½ day or full day to see everything in more detail. The White tower was chalked full of amazing weaponry throughout the history of the site.

Go Right When It Opens! - There are a million reviews of this place and yes, it's great. All I have to add is get tickets on-line and go early (as in be there right at 10) and make a beeline for the crown jewels! It gets so very crowded and going first thing really lets you see them up close without the crowds. Also recommend the general tour; we gathered for the one at 10:30 but it was crazy crowded so we just waited around for the next one and were super glad we did. Some of the patter was a little goofy but we learned a ton!

Beefeater tour is fantastic - We did the Beefeater guided tour. Our guide, Yeoman Darren Hardy was fantastic! Very knowledgable, a lot of fun, and ran a highly entertaining and informative tour. The tour was the perfect way to start our visit and we’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting.

Must see - This was our first experience in London, and it could not have gone better. After a trans-Atlantic flight cancelation and rebooking, we got in a day late with all of our luggage and no sleep, navigated the tube, with an hour to spare before our scheduled tour. To say we were frazzled is an understatement. A helpful staff member told us about nearby luggage storage, and everyone else was so nice, we were finally able to relax. We took our time through the exhibits. I'd heard the Crown Jewels were rushed and crowded, but didn't find that to be true. We were able to go around the conveyor belt several times with no issue. The moat walk was beautiful. The animals were very surprising! Life size metal sculptures throughout, and live ravens that were a bit terrifying but also very cool to see up close and in flight.

Jenny and Peter Hexham of Drake Australia loved this place - Completely amazing. Nothing like this in the US or Australia. The British are so damn good at this kind of thing! Full of history, culture, science and much more…

Absolute Must See, and Must Tour - Incredible views, and bursting with history, I lucked into hopping onto a Yeoman (aka Beefeaters) when we walked in, and that 100% makes the experience. It is worth your time to wait to hear their stories and their experience working in the Tower, as it really helps the history come to life. No trip to London would be complete without visiting this landmark.
