Phenomenal one of a kind...Phenomenal one of a kind experience led by a bonafide Yeoman Warden stationed at the tower. Extremely knowledgeable and engaging. Well worth the time and expense.

The tour was enjoyable, though it felt a bit rushed at times. We were really glad it was scheduled early, as it allowed us to beat the crowds and get a great view of the Crown Jewels.
