You and your children will be fascinated by the many treasures that the Tower of London houses and your guide will tell you all about the legends and stories of this castle which played a prominent role in English history. Kids will be entertained and engaged and they will be encouraged to use their imagination to picture what life was once like inside the tower. During the tour you will see the some of the most important places and buildings in the Tower such as Mint Street, the White Tower, the Medieval Tower, the Line of Kings, the Imprisonment and so on. Moreover, included in your ticket is a visit to the Crown Jewels, a collection of regalia and vestments worn by British kings and queens at their coronations, including jewels and symbols of royalty like the crown, sceptre, and sword.

Was with my 16 year old grandson. Our guide Dan was very interesting with information not usually available. It turned out to be a private tour which was perfect. Learned a lot. Thank you
Mehru was a wonderful guide as we explored the Tower and the Bridge with our 10 year old grandson. She was a wealth of information and kept us all engaged and interested throughout the tour. My grandson says this was the highlight of his time in London
Janine (Jasia) was incredibly knowledgeable and great with the kids. So much so we had people wanting to join our tour!
Mehru was a fabulous tour guide. She was kind and informative and very engaging with our children. Despite the heat, we all learned so much and had a great time. Mehru managed to keep my busy twin boys engaged and entertained-no small feat. The treats she gave them at the end of the tour will be forever treasured.
Mehru was amazing!! She was very knowledgeable and my son really enjoyed learning from her!! The tour was top notch!
Despite the name, this is not a tour meant for kids. Adolescents certainly, but my nine year old hated it. Our tour guide had anecdotes and stories that were interesting to adults and teenagers, but not kids. We paid a premium for this tour and feel somewhat bamboozled. If you want a truly kid-friendly experience, take your kid to Warwick castle instead.
Lucy was a great host and very informative- we loved our tour! Our kids loved the stories and my husband who is a history teacher appreciated her knowledge.
Adrian was amazing. Extremely knowledgable and friendly. A great guide for exploring the sights of London.
Lucy A. was THE BEST TOUR GUIDE. Yes, this is a pricey tour, but it WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY if you love history and great stories. Lucy did a fabulous job telling wonderfully engaging stories at every turn. This was the best experience of our entire London trip. Thank you so much Lucy.
Lucy our guide really brought the stories to life! Well paced and told in a way that was chronological in fashion so it was easy to follow. Thoroughly enjoyed it and we were doubly blessed with clear weather!
