Fabulous Tour of the Tower - Our guide Warren met us right on time at the meeting place and walked us to the Tower. He stopped several times to give us pertinent information about the history of the Tower. He was enthusiastic, interesting, and very knowledgeable! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would recommend it to anyone visiting London! A must see!

Excellent Tour - Our tour guide was very good! The highlight of this tour are the stories that are being told and also the tower bridge. The bridge itself is exceptional and a must see.

VIP without the red carpet - Good communication before the tour started. Start time changed but was sent a number of emails to advise and confirm we could still do the tour.
Meeting place was convenient - located next to a tube station. Short easy walk from there to the entry point. A few other tour groups going in early as well but not so many that you were crushed in the crowd and couldn’t see or hear anything. Beefeater was engaging and entertaining.
Only complaint of the tour was that I would have preferred to have the option to wander independently rather than have to hang around with the tour guide to hear him speak. We were standing there in the Tower of London and on multiple occasions dragged from one point to another, barely 10 meters apart to hear all about the history. While informative, we were standing right there, let us go and see it and experience it for ourselves!
Got pretty frustrated spending so much time just standing around and felt we missed out on seeing a lot more of the tower because of it. I would recommend seeing the tower under your own steam or if doing this tour, skipping the Tower Bridge and staying longer to explore for yourself.

Tower of London tour with Tower Bridge option - This tour was great, John was our guide and he was full of knowledge, one of those guides that you think "But wait there's more"
Always supplying us with more information.
The only reason l haven't given this tour a 5, is because l think it would be good if the second part of our tour, which was the Tower Bridge, had an open time ticket.
This would then give you a bit more time to tour the Tower of London more and see everything at your own pace. Or organise for a pass out for those who would like to return after the Bridge.

Early Access to the Tower was nice! - Marc was great! He was funny, knowledgeable and attentive to our group. Getting in early was nice and the Beefeater Private meeting was very informative! We did enjoy the Tower of London and Jewels but the added access to the Tower Bridge in the same tour was great! We did feel slightly rushed, but it may have been to keep up before the crowds!

An Interesting Tour that needs tweeking - Interesting tour, but it didn't allow enough time to go into the tower buildings as we had to move on to Tower Bridge. An extra 1 hour would at least help, or tickets to Tower Bridge given at start of tour and ending the tour in the Tower, enabling people to stay on and go to the Bridge a bit later. Another option is to get a pass out of the Tower enabling re-entry after the Tower Bridge.
