The combined ticket was great. The times were right, which was particularly important for us as we had some time to plan our own trip with the tour group on the day of arrival. We were lucky that the weather was fine. Tower Bridge was impressive. The glass panel in particular, which provided a view of the Thames from above, was a highlight for me. It wasn't too crowded, so you had peace and quiet and time to really take it all in. Yes, and what can I say, the Shard was the icing on the cake. A fantastic view at sunset across to the illuminated London. It was a dream. The staff were friendly everywhere. We spent almost 2 hours and couldn't get enough of it. I would come back anytime. Absolutely recommendable.

The visit was amazing! No need to queue with our entry tickets, we directly got in. We were lucky enough to see the opening of the bridge from the glass platform, wonderful experience ! On the day of our visit, there were two openings of the bridge so we could also see the bridge opening from the outside before entering the engine room. Amazing views on the whole city from the bridge glass platform.

Our prepaid tickets allowed us to skip the long queue and we were welcomed up to the bridge's walkway where we enjoyed the splendid views along the river. The engine room workings and historical facts about the bridge were very interesting as well. A great hour or so spent here. Thank you.

    Fascinating and interesting tour. If you're an engineer then it is amazing. Had to wait a while in the entry queue, but staff managed things well and were very helpful.
  • Soar above London

    Your Tower Bridge adventure begins at the foot of this landmark. As you enter, imagine the thousands who've crossed these pathways for over 135 years. Take your time to explore the towers, and soak in panoramic views of London's skyline. Spot St. Paul's dome, the Shard's silhouette, and the Tower of London, all while learning about the bridge's construction through interactive exhibits. This fascinating bridge, built by skilled engineers is indeed an architectural wonder.

    See Victorian engineering secrets

    Visit the Victorian Engine Rooms to get a glimpse into the functioning of the Bridge Lifts over the years. Get to know how the switch between steam engine power to electricity came to be. Marvel at the original steam engines that once raised the bascules (the lifting sections) to allow tall ships to pass through.
