Visit the Tower of London before it opens to the public and attend the daily Opening Ceremony. This early access tour lets you see the Crown Jewels before the crowds and explore the tower using an audio guide app available in multiple languages.

The experience begins outside the tower with a short introduction from an English-speaking guide, who explains the tower’s 1,000-year history as a royal residence, prison, armory, and execution site.

Enter the tower early to watch the Opening Ceremony, a time-honored tradition performed by the Yeoman Warders (Beefeaters). After the ceremony, go directly to the Crown Jewels for a quieter visit before regular entry begins.

You will then have free time to explore the tower at your own pace using the audio guide app. Visit key areas such as the White Tower, Bloody Tower, Tower Green, and the Fusilier Museum.
