    Tower of London: Booking was very easy. I received a WhatsApp message with the tickets, and that was it. Super easy. There was no line on site, even though it was the Easter break. We spent a lot of time at the Tower of London because we listened to the audio tour. You can download it to your phone using a QR code. The code is right at the entrance, next to the maps. Don’t forget your headphones. During the day, the line for the Crown Jewels was about 30 minutes long. By evening, there was no one there anymore.

    Tower of London and Sky Garden visit was a nice combine to visit expecially for fisrt timers but I thought dinner course would be at the sky garden but it was a restaurant to sky garden. This was a little disappointing

    It's an interesting tour—be sure to set aside at least three hours to see everything! Start by walking along the wall, then head straight to the highlights to avoid the very long line.

    One of the coolest experiences in London. Climbing the tower and taking in the view from the top is simply amazing and very informative. It’s a landmark that’s definitely worth a visit. And for tech enthusiasts, the engine room with its old steam engines is an absolute must-see.
