Entry or guide

An entry ticket or a guided tour: what changes

The $50 listing is the one plain entry among the six: a ticket to the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels exhibition. Its title says ticket, not tour. The description speaks of nearly 1,000 years of history, insights from the Yeoman Warders, the guardians of the Tower, and spotting the ravens. Tickets for the Tower of London at this price leave the pace to you.

Of the Tower of London tickets here, the other five add a guide or a set programme. The $118 Tower of London guided tour is fully guided with timed access and ends at the Crown Jewels exhibit. The $197 tour is built around the centuries-old opening ceremony and includes the Tower Bridge Experience after. The $210 visit is an after-hours evening tour with a Yeoman Warder.

The two full days, $218 and $222, put the Tower inside a day with a Thames cruise, St Paul’s Cathedral and the changing of the guard. The $218 day ends with a flight on the Eye; the other Eye combos are on the London Eye page.

With a Yeoman Warder

Beefeaters, ceremonies and the evening visit

Two listings name the Yeoman Warders, the guardians of the Tower. The $50 ticket promises insights from them during your visit. The $210 visit is an evening tour with a Yeoman Warder, and its title calls the guide a Beefeater: this is the Tower of London Beefeater tour on this site, 1.5 hours long, the shortest Tower of London tour of the six.

Two ceremonies appear in the titles. The $197 tour is built around the opening ceremony, and you enter before anyone else, the listing says; the $210 tour names the Keys Ceremony. Neither listing gives a start time, so check the times on the listing when you pick a date for your Tower of London tickets.

Matched on what each listing states.

  • You want the lowest price

    The $50 entry ticket with the Crown Jewels. The lowest price with a guide is $118.

  • You want the most reviews behind your choice

    The $50 ticket: 33,049 reviews. Next among the six is the $118 guided tour with 1,675.

  • You want a guide the whole way

    The $118 fully guided timed-access tour, 3 to 4 hours, or the $197 opening ceremony tour, 3.5 hours.

  • You want a Yeoman Warder in the evening

    The $210 after-hours visit, 1.5 hours: a Tower of London Yeoman Warder tour, 79 reviews at 4.9.

  • You want Tower Bridge too

    The $197 tour, with the Tower Bridge Experience after the guided tour.

  • You want the Tower and the river in one day

    A Tower of London river tour in one day: the $218 coach day or the $222 day with cream tea, both with a Thames cruise.

Worth it?

Is a guided visit worth more than the ticket?

Across the six listings, Tower of London tickets price from $50 to $222. Tower of London tour tickets with a guide start at $118, $68 more than the entry ticket, for a guide over 3 to 4 hours and timed access. That tour is rated 4.7 on 1,675 reviews, against 4.6 on 33,049 for the ticket.

The $197 and $210 tours cost about four times the entry ticket and pay for a ceremony: the opening one with Tower Bridge, or the evening one with a Yeoman Warder. They are rated 4.8 and 4.9, on 943 and 79 reviews.

The full days cost more than four times the ticket because the Tower is one stop of several. If the Tower is the reason for your trip, the numbers favour the cheaper Tower of London tickets: the $50 ticket or the $118 tour. To compare every price band, all 68 tours are on the main page.
