The Tower of London

This is a journey into Englands ancient history. A castle that has survived for nearly a thousand years of Englands often bloody and violent past. A Palace, a prison, a stronghold of the nations treasures. The castle has grown with London like an old beating heart and is still lived in the the Yeoman Wardens of the Tower and their families who guard the crown Jewels and share their ancient residences within the walls with the haunted souls who carved their names into the castle foundations centuries before. We will see the jewels, the prisons and torture chambers, walk through the lesser known spots in the Tower from the old lodgings of Royalty to the current inhabitants of the Ravens and see the site of execution and burial of three of our queens. On this tour we will visit the cells that became the final residences of so many souls that never left these walls and walk the battlements of the castle to get the best photo spots to remember. This in Not the Tower, this is England.

in the summer months I would recommend starting the tour in the morning. The queue for the Crown Jewels can get very long and suck away the time. The old royal Mint The crown Jewels The Armoury of the white tower The torture chambers Walk the Battlements of the tower Traitors Gate Tower Bridge All Hallows by the Tower Church and the crypt. Tower Hill and the site of executions The old Roman wall of London
