The Tower of London is one of the top sights to see in the city right in front of the majestic Tower Bridge. This historic castle with over 1,000 years of history is home to the Crown Jewels, the iconic 'Beefeater' Yeoman Warders, and the legendary ravens that have kept the kingdom from collapsing. Inside the White Tower, the oldest building of the castle, is an 11th-century chapel and historic Royal Armouries collections. You can explore the castle and exhibits on your own, but a guided tour can help you navigate this popular attraction most efficiently. The Tower of London is also included in many tourist passes and combined attraction packages.

We purchased tickets in advance for the opening time of 10am on a Sunday. We had to queue a bit as we arrived before opening but dealt with very quickly. We didnt bother with audio guides. We didnt stop only for photos and reading things and looking at exhibits and things and we didnt leave till 1.30pm. So plenty to see there and so good value. Really enjoyed it and it was great to see the new Plantinum Jubilee crown that has been made for the Queen as the longest ever serving monarch. Highly recommend going here and making sure you give yourself 3 hours really to get to see it all.

History everywhere. Love it.
I have to say the visit to the Tower of London didn't dissapoint. It's such a magical and historical place and getting to be there and visit everything it was a privilege. Even though it was winter and we got a rainy day we were able to visit almost everything inside and I would totally go back and explore more. You need at least 3-4 hours there to be able to experience everything. The Crown Jewels exhibition usually has a long wait time in the queue as it's very long so I would recommend you to go first thing in the morning to the Tower and go directly to that exhibition and then continue with the rest. We had lunch there and even though it was not cheap it was worth it.
