LondonTower of London

Tower of London | See the home of the Crown Jewels

The Tower of London isn't just any old castle—it's a fortress, royal palace, and one-time prison all rolled into one! Built by William the Conqueror in 1066, this fortress once held royal prisoners and now guards the Crown Jewels. From ghost stories to Beefeaters and ravens, this legendary spot by the Thames is practically bursting with stories of power and intrigue!

Things to know before booking Tower of London tickets

  • Ticket options: You can book a standard entry ticket, a guided tour with a Thames cruise and the Changing of the Guards, an early access guided tour with a private meet and greet with a Beefeater, or an after-hours guided tour with access to the Ceremony of Keys.
  • Combo tours: If you want to explore London further, book a budget-friendly ticket that includes entry to the London Eye, the Tower Bridge, Madame Tussauds, or a London Eye & Thames River cruise combo, in addition to entry to the Tower of London.
  • What’s included: A standard entry ticket includes ​​​​entry to the Tower of London, access to The Crown Jewels, entry to the White Tower, the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula, the Battlements, the Medieval Palace, the Bloody Tower, the Torture at the Tower exhibition, the Fusiliers Museum, the Royal Mint exhibition, and access to the children's activity trails and live historical re-enactments.
  • Guided tours: Take a guided tour to learn more about complex histories and significant sites. It's the perfect way to uncover hidden stories and fascinating details you might miss on your own! Plus, most guided tours allow you to access the Tower when it is less crowded, and you can get your doubts cleared in real time.
  • Discounted tickets: Tickets are available at a reduced rate for youth under the age of 17, students, and seniors above the age of 65. Entry for kids under the age of 5 is free.
  • Cancellation policy: Some Tower of London tickets can be canceled 24-48 hours before the tour commences. Check the cancellation policy for a specific tour before you book it!
  • Visiting during peak hours: To avoid the long lines, book your tickets at least two weeks in advance, especially during peak season from July to September. Set aside at least 2-3 hours to explore its many fascinating corners fully! The Crown Jewels are a highlight of the Tower, so plan to visit early—ideally by 9am—or around lunchtime on a weekday to avoid the biggest crowds. 
  • Plan your day: If you only have 1-2 hours, arrive as soon as the Tower opens (9am) or towards the end of the day (4pm) to avoid long queues. Prioritize seeing the Crown Jewels, the White Tower, Tower Green, and the execution site. Head to the Crown Jewels first to avoid crowds. If you have a whole afternoon, arrive shortly after lunch around 1pm when the Tower is less crowded. Join a 1-hour Beefeater Tour, and explore the White Tower, Battlements, the Medieval Palace, Tower Green, Bloody Tower and Traitors’ Gate, and the Ravens and Tower Walls. 
  • Accessibility: While the Tower is wheelchair-friendly, some areas have limited access due to its historic architecture, which includes narrow stairs and passages.

Visitor tips

  • Aim to get there right when it opens (typically at 9am) to avoid long queues and crowds.

  • Arriving at the Tower via boat on the Thames presents a unique vantage point, allowing you to admire its striking architecture more fully than from land.
  • Pick up a free map at the entrance.
  • Be prepared for plenty of walking on uneven surfaces, so wearing comfortable footwear is a must.
  • Carry small bags/backpacks since no cloakrooms are available.
  • The Tower's ravens are famous residents; remember not to touch or feed them, as they are wild and should be left undisturbed.
