Explore the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and British Museum in one day with a private guide and London Underground tickets.
About this tour
Explore three of London’s most celebrated attractions in one day with a licensed private guide. This 8-hour London Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and British Museum Day Tour pairs royal history with remarkable collections, with London Underground day tickets included for travel between sights.
Begin at the Tower of London, where reserved tickets help you bypass the ticket office line as you discover the fortress’s dark past. Next, enter Westminster Abbey through the priority group entrance and take in its royal heritage. Finish at the British Museum, where your included ticket covers the permanent collection and its ancient treasures, including mummies. Pickup and drop-off are available at accommodation in zone 1; guests staying elsewhere can meet the guide at Cheval Three Quays. Your guide speaks your chosen language, and larger groups receive additional guides when needed.
The Crown Jewels queue can reach 90 minutes, and the Jewel House does not allow live commentary, so that visit may be left out of the itinerary. Make the most of a single day in the capital with this London Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and British Museum Day Tour.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.75 from 4 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 7.0.
