Entertaining and authentic - Our guide Jenoa was great, told the history like a story. The beefeater was fantastic, as were the soldiers. Loved the jewels.

Our tour guide, Maria,... - Our tour guide, Maria, was extensively knowledgeable on everything about the tower and the history of the area. We had a very nice time, exploring the towers and the grounds. The line for the crown jewels was manageable when we visited. The only negative thing I would say was there were several groups of school children, who were extremely rowdy, and managed to knock my vision impaired father-in-law over three times in different locations during our visit.

Tower of London/opening and Crown Jewels to beat the crowds - Sion was our guide for this tour and he was very informative and helpful. Super nice guy. He made sure we got a lot of history of the tower and had us to the gate in time to be front and center of the beefeaters opening ceremony at the gates. Best way to see the tower because you get in before crowds descend on the Crown Jewels exhibition.

Isabelle knows her stuff! “Off with yer head!” - This was the second time I’ve toured The Tower of London. Fabulous history and we were blessed to have an Historian as our guide, Isabelle. She shared additional information about England as a whole.

Take this tour! - Loved this tour!! We had just 19 on the tour, and it felt very private. It was very engaging with interesting facts and history. Our tour guide was funny and informative. Great time with the Beefeater and the Crown Jewels were fabulous. Highly recommend this tour.

Good tour guide with individual ear pieces. - Very knowledgeable and funny. Lots of good insights. Good management of crowds and lines. We liked the individual earpiece microphones so we could hear our tour guide even though the crowds were noisy around us.

The Tower - Good trip, nice guide with many interesting info and insights on The Tower, English history and people and situation that happened there. I don't know if meeting with beefeater is worth it, as they mostly focus on they story, it takes around 20 minutes to spend with them, they do not guide on the The Tower or speak about it's history, so I'm not sure if it's really worth it. As I hear at the afternoon it's less crowded - i have been there at 10 am and queue to Crown Jewels was horrible. Overall experience 8/10, would not recommend for families with small children as it gets very crowded.

It should be more clear... - It should be more clear where the meeting spot is. My mother was using a cane and we had to back track.
