At the Tower of London, I really liked the way the exhibits were designed. They were very varied and exciting to explore. The informational texts were insightful and informative, but not too detailed, so it was a pleasure to read through them. At Tower Bridge, I especially liked the small information panels in the stairwells; they provided details about, for example, the height, width, or the number of liters of paint needed to breathe new life into Tower Bridge. I also especially liked how the information was presented in the glass-enclosed walkways, which offered a wonderful view. My absolute highlight was the glass floor you could walk across, which made you feel like you were walking right over the Thames.

What an absolutely amazing experience! We started at 9am at London Tower, straight to the Crown Jewels and no waiting lines! Spent a few hours seeing all the things then jumped on the ferry to the London Eye. The ferry captain gave an entertaining and informative talk which we enjoyed greatly, even tipped him! Then onto the London Eye at 2:30pm. There was a daunting line up but we were whooshed through onto the fast line and didn't wait long at all. Absolutely stunning and impressive views of London in all of her beauty. I highly recommend this trio of things to do and this ticket is great value! Our tour was charging a fair bit more for the same experience and less time! Thanks team, it was amazing!

It was great. Very friendly people and guards. The coffee at the tower was bad and we had to wait long to get it. But the site made it all okay. I was marvelled by the crown jewels, finally understand why so many (old) stories and movies are about stealing them. I'm so glad we made this trip. Tower bridge was great as well. It looks very nice, but the main thing for me was the more modern day glass floor where you could see the trafic beneath you. Scary for some but I like it

I'm a history geek, so will always love historical buildings and the Tower delivered. It was a shame the bridge was closed on my chosen day to visit, due to the heatwave, but I got to walk across and see it's beautiful design. It was all really easy to book with Headout and easy to obtain a refund due to the closer, so really pleased with the service.

We were able to see a lot of London with history and interesting stories. The bus lines were easy to navigate and allowed us time to get off and explore areas that we wanted to see more of. Loved this tour, highly recommended!

This combo pass lets you tour London at your own pace on Big Bus routes and dive into history at the Tower of London, giving you two must-do experiences in one convenient package at an unbeatable price!

Tower of London

Just a little off stop #16 on the Red route, the Tower of London feels less like a museum and more like stepping straight into a storybook. Cobblestone paths wind past ancient battlements, ravens perch in shadowy corners, and the White Tower rises with Norman strength. Inside, armour glints under dim light, while the Crown Jewels shimmer like captured starlight; 23,000 gems sparkling in regal silence. Between re-enactments, ghostly legends, and quiet courtyards, the fortress reveals a London where monarchy, mystery, and myth all blur into one.
