Save your money

The regular guide for this tour bailed at the last minute; her replacement was disappointing. Our guide was rushed. She knew her history for the most part but fumbled with dates and repeated herself. We did get to skip the entry queue. Although when we arrived there wasn’t a queue for the Crown Jewels she put it off until the line was heading back to the Thames on the basis she had so much to tell us about the jewels; nothing we heard was anything I hadn’t already read about the jewels. The White Tower was part of the original sales pitch but we didn’t go through it with her. We spent what to me was an excessive amount of time with the crows. She simply seemed to be winging the entire time. I expected an organized tour rather than bouncing about as we did. To be perfectly honest this was not worth the $1,080 US I paid.

Tower of London

Took the 3 hour private guided tour with another couple; Ben was our guide and what a great guide he was - very knowledgeable, witty, respectful of our 70+ years so he timed a couple rest stops. Introduced us to three Beefeaters whom he knew personally - that was unexpected. Covered most of the grounds in the 3 hours - unforgettable experience going back a thousand years in history. Tour is expensive but worth every dollar/pound/euro we spent. Very happy we did this, and actually would go again on our own but to really get into the history, this was the best decision. Thank you, Ben!

Amazing family focused tour!!

Mehru was absolutely lovely and such a fantastic guide for our 5 & 7 year old boys! I didn’t expect such a thoughtful and focused tour for the boys so it was really a wonderful surprise that captured their interest for all three hours! I will request Mehru again on my next trip, she was just fantastic!!

Amazing Guide & Private Tour of Tower of London

We had a private tour of Tower of London with Marina. We had a family of 6, including 3 teenagers and a 80 year old. She was an amazing guide. Arrived early at meeting spot, gave us great information whilst in queues, kept the tour interesting for the teenagers and showed us her favourite places inside The Tower. Just an amazing guide. Couldn’t recommend this tour and Marina enough. Well worth the money.
