Mark was amazing! It’s a lot of history and information but he kept it light and interesting. The tower is incredible and I would highly recommend the tour

John was a very good guide. He told us lots of historical information and made sure we were in the right spot to see the Royal Beefeaters opening ceremony. The tour ends when you enter the tower bridge which you visite by yourself. Don’t run out of pounds like we did so you can tip the guide!
