The program is very interesting for all generations. Venue is nice and spectacular. Ee werr there when the brigde was lifted and could watch thhe whole process through the glass floor. It was very exciting. The staff is child friendly and helpful. The staff took care of our disables relative as well. We planned to stay for an hour but we stayed more than 2. :-) I recommend it to all generations!

Last minute booking was relatively easy. The price was reasonable. There was a lift and seating for anyone needing to take it easy. The engine room wasn't crowded and there was plenty of room and opportunity to digest the information which was clearly set out.

The exhibition is beautifully designed and extremely informative. There is a passport for children on which they can collect stamps. A small cat guides you through the exhibition, which is present everywhere but not at all distracting. The pictures and information in the exhibition are wonderfully presented and you have a really great feeling of being right in the middle of the construction of the bridge. There is a glass floor at the top of the transverse corridor, I didn't dare to go up there at first, but you also have a great view from up there. I can say that the tour was much better than I had expected.

Explore London's iconic Tower Bridge and Engine Room at your own pace, to get first-hand knowledge about this structural marvel.

Walk on Tower Bridge's 42-meter-high glass floor to look over the Thames, and see the tallest building in the UK - the 72-storeyed Shard or the high-rise financial center Canary Wharf.

Go on to the ingenious mechanics that power Tower Bridge's bascules in the historic Engine Rooms and discover how the bridge works and the people who worked there.

Did you know that more than 80 people were needed to maintain the engines and raise the Bridge?

Well organised and informative. Glass floor is good fun, with mirror in ceiling. Time your photo to catch a boat below! Don't miss the engine room with the beautifully maintained engines, all well explained.

At Towerbridge it was unclear where to wait and the staff ignored the questions or we were shoved to the side again !!! At The Shard it said we would get three photos with it; indeed three poses were photographed upon entry but the free photos were just three the same; the other photos cost 13.75 P/st; too bad !!!

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.
