Experiencia muy única e interesante en la Torre. Grupo más reducido. Verla fuera de horario te hace sentir realmente la atmósfera histórica del lugar.

Incredible tour! We visited the Tower of London during the day to see inside the towers and then came at night on this tour and it was a completely different experience! Barry, our Beefeater was knowledgeable and truly loved his job. You could tell he enjoyed sharing all his insider information and historical knowledge of the tower. Definitely worth it!!

The Yeomen was knowledgeable and provided a sense of humour too.

The Tower of London key ceremony is a very special event that has occurred for over 700 years. Our Yeoman Warden Tracey is one of the very few women to become a Beefeater and guard the many so we vial tower features. VIP treatment during the key ceremony is very much appreciated! Certainly one of the highlights of our stay in London! Don’t miss it 👍
