Enter the Tower of London early, watch the Beefeater ceremony, and see the Crown Jewels before exploring at your own pace.

About this tour

Step inside London’s storied fortress before the public crowds arrive on this Tower of London tour. Watch Beefeaters perform the Opening Ceremony, then head to the Crown Jewels while the galleries are quieter. An expert English-speaking guide leads the experience, and a self-guided audio guide app helps you continue exploring at your own pace.

After the ceremony, spend time discovering the Tower’s historic spaces, including the White Tower, Inner Ward, and Outer Ward. The venue does not allow guides inside the Jewel House or White Tower, so you can explore those areas independently. This early-entry visit combines a guided introduction with the freedom to linger over the sights that interest you most.

Meet in front of the Tower of London Ticket Office, near Tower Hill Tube Station. Choose this Tower of London tour for an atmospheric start to your visit and a closer look at one of London’s most famous landmarks.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.60 from 1,033 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in London
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 5.3.
