This tour had a lot packed into it. If you’re looking to see Crown Jewels, you’ll be the first to see them with this tour. You’ll also have great photo spot f the Tower bridge before cruising down the Thames. We did not see the Changing of the Guard but caught the end of it as we made our way to Buckingham Palace. Nathan was our guide. He was knowledgeable and provided interesting facts during the tour. He kept our attending with his humorous tidbits.

Amazing tour, even in bad weather! Guide used tech to amplify voice, ensuring all could hear. Engaging & fun for the kids. Loved it!

Our early access tour of the Tower of London through Urban Saunters with Nathan as our guide was really terrific. Nathan clearly had a deep understanding of the many aspects of royals history. He definitely seems to enjoy it. We had true early access to the opening ceremony for the tower gates with a behind the scenes tutorial from one of the Beefeaters. Following the opening of the gates our group was one of the first to be able to enter the museum to see the Crown Jewels. The trip was enlightening and very educational and so fascinating. We would recommend this tour and highly recommend Nathan.

this was probably the most enjoyable tour we have done on the london trip- our guide was Nathan, more than just knowledgeable. he presented things history in a very engaging and entertaining way. the trip also was wonderful that you could see the inside scoop of the opening ceremony, as well as the crown jewels before there were any crowds.

Let’s start with our guide, Jeremy was wealth of knowledge and took time to really talk with us about the places we visited and questions we had. I could not want more in a tour guide, so Jeremy cheers! (Hoping he gets to read this) My daughter, wife and I took the Sunday early access tower tour with cruise and Westminster, Buckingham. In summary the value received exceeded the cost of the tour. I would not hesitate to take another tour with this group, top notch. Truly made our time in London special. Thank you.

Nathan was so informed. How he managed to arrange for us to see Queen Camilla drive by was spectacular.

Anne_S

Our guide Rosie was better than we could have hoped for. She was pleasant, knowledgeable, organized. She created the perfect start to our stay in London.

Lu_A

We highly recommend this early tour at the Tower of London. You are allowed early entry to the Tower grounds and the Crown Jewels before general admission visitors enter. Our guide was funny, irreverent, knowledgeable and wonderful! This tour includes far more than just the Tower and does include considerably more walking than we expected. We felt this tour was well organized and well worth the money!

KC2ACY

Rosie was the absolute best tour guide, period! The rightful amount of history that she provides is well beyond our expectations. We literally left the tour knowing things that we would have never known. This is a great was to learn everything London and the UK.

This was a wonderful tour, and what made it especially memorable was how knowledgeable and charismatic our tour guide, Rosie, was!
