Be the first visitors of the day to enter the Tower of London’s world-famous Jewel House, where the glittering Crown Jewels await. Watch the Opening Ceremony, the military ritual that officially opens the famous historical edifice. Following a brief overview from the Yeoman Warders – the tower guardians – see the Crown Jewels followed by a complete tour of the Tower of London, beginning with the Execution Site, on Tower Green.

Come face to face with gruesome history as you make your way to the Bloody Tower (where Sir Walter Raleigh was imprisoned for 13 years) and the Torture Chambers.

Walk along the famous Tower Walls and peek inside the refurbished bedroom of Edward I. Step into the White Tower (the central tower, or ‘keep’) for a full tour of a refurbished medieval castle.
