What to expect

Experience the Tower of London before the main crowds arrive with VIP early access and the rare opportunity to witness its historic Opening Ceremony. Meet your expert English-speaking guide outside the Tower, where you'll first discover fascinating stories from nearly 1,000 years of royal history, intrigue, imprisonment and power. Witness the historic old ritual performed by the Yeoman Warders, known as Beefeaters, as they ceremonially unlock the gates for the day. It is a rare moment that few visitors ever see.

Once inside, head towards the Crown Jewels and admire one of Britain's most spectacular royal collections build inside the Jewel House.

After the early-access experience, your visit becomes completely flexible. Continue exploring the Tower of London at your own pace with the audio-guided app. Discover legendary locations including the White Tower, Bloody Tower, Tower Green and Fusilier Museum while learning more about royal ceremonies, famous prisoners, medieval architecture, and the Tower's darker stories.

This is a memorable way to experience one of London's most iconic landmarks.
