Witnessing the magnificent Closing of the Keys ceremony at the Tower of London was an experience not quickly forgotten. Our Beefeater, Tracy, was extremely personable, witty, and a fantastic story-teller. She created an environment that not only entertained but educated all those attending. Her thorough explanation of the history of the ceremony and what to expect was perfectly detailed. This is an experience I would recommend again and again.

The Ceremony of the Keys was a memorable and unique experience. The female Yeoman Warder conducting the tour was exceptional, combining extensive historical knowledge with engaging storytelling. Experiencing this centuries-old tradition, which has been performed nightly for over 700 years, after the Tower had closed to the public created a remarkable atmosphere and provided a fascinating insight into one of Britain’s oldest ceremonial customs. Highly recommended. Simon

Sé testigo de la Ceremonia de las Llaves de 700 años en la Torre de Londres en un tour en grupo pequeño, mucho después de que las multitudes de turistas se hayan ido. Tendrás la oportunidad de ver el lugar histórico con calles vacías y tranquilidad. Nuestro guía para la noche, el Yeoman Warder 'Buster' Briggs, nos mantuvo cautivados con parte de la historia y las leyendas de la Torre, luego explicó la Ceremonia de las Llaves y lo que estaba sucediendo a lo largo de la misma, con un gran sentido del humor incluido. ¡Una noche espectacular no comienza a hacerle justicia!
