London: Tower of London and Crown Jewels Private Guided Tour｜United Kingdom

Explore the Tower of London on a private tour with a Blue Badge guide. Discover the tower’s many lives, from royal palace to prison, and hear tales of intrigue as you tour the White Tower, the dazzling Crown Jewels, and the infamous Traitor’s Gate.

Walk the ramparts and cobbled lanes of the royal fortress, built by William the Conqueror in 1078. Wander past Traitor’s Gate and hear about the darkest side of the tower’s past – tragic tales of prisoners who were taken in through this murky river gate to be executed, like Anne Boleyn and Guy Fawkes.

Meet the Beefeaters, officially called Yeoman Warders, the guardians of the tower and Crown Jewels who live at the Tower with their families. Learn about the famous resident ravens that they care for along with the legend that if they all fly away, the kingdom and Crown will fall.

See the permanent collection of historical armor and the 23,000 gemstones that make up the Crown Jewels display. Choose to visit the torture chamber or temporary exhibits to round off your trip.
