This was a tour I felt privileged to take part in. The Walks tour guide checked us in at 8:30 pm and immediately handed us over to a Yeoman warder who guided us around the Tower for an hour. It was a small group of 30 in a completely empty Tower so my photographs in the late May fading light are spectacular with not a single person cluttering up the picture. The Yeoman warder explained the ceremony we would witness and then it proceeded in silence with no photos of the ceremony. I had walked around the Tower in the morning on my own to view the Crown Jewels and in exhibits inside the buildings as this evening tour is outside only. The exclusivity made it worth the hefty price tag for me.

Expérience unique. Prenez une veste, il peut faire froid et venteux. Assurez-vous d'avoir un moyen de transport à la fin de la visite, il n'y avait pas de taxis autour de la tour à ce moment-là.

The small group tour with the Yeoman Warder was excellent (shout out to Emily!) and I'm glad I did it, but I have to admit I'm not sure why it was so expensive. If you're a history lover and like to stay out of huge crowds, I say go for it.
