Overview

Be among the very first visitors inside the Tower of London and witness one of London’s most iconic traditions — the Beefeater Opening Ceremony — before the general public arrives.

Start your experience with a short introduction from an expert local guide, who will explain the Tower’s history, layout, and significance, helping you get oriented before entry. You’ll then enter early to attend the official opening ceremony led by the Yeoman Warders, a moment most visitors never see.

After the ceremony and early entry, you’ll be free to explore the Tower of London independently at your own pace. Visit the Crown Jewels, towers, and exhibitions in the order that suits you, without rushing or navigating heavy crowds.

This express experience is perfect for travellers who want the privilege of early access and the opening ceremony, combined with the flexibility to explore the Tower on their own.
