The line at the ticket counter was pretty long, so we bought tickets online right there through Headout. It also saved us money, since we now had the combo ticket. We had our Tower of London tour at 12:00 and Tower Bridge at 14:30—that was just enough time. If you really want to see everything at the Tower of London, you’ll need more time.

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

We had a packed itinerary at both locations. It started with the historic Tower of London and the magnificent Crown Jewels, and ended with the breathtaking Skywalk over Tower Bridge. It was a wonderful day full of memorable experiences that will stay with us forever.

We were in London on July 28 and booked tickets for the Tower of London and the London Eye. The Tower was great and everything went smoothly. The London Eye experience was absolutely poorly organized. I booked a specific time slot and paid extra for it.First, you have to go into a building to check in with your QR code, and then stand in a really long line. The time slot is mandatory. I wouldn’t do that again. We got there pretty early and there were hardly any people there—it would have been much easier without a time slot.
