Visiting Tower Bridge was a captivating journey through architecture and emotion. Walking the glass floors above the Thames was thrilling, but the true heart of the experience was in the Engine Rooms. The Victorian steam engines, rich with history, revealed the human effort behind this iconic landmark. The interactive exhibits and well-marked route made it easy to explore, and witnessing the live bridge lift was pure magic. My husband and I found meaning in both the grandeur and the grit. It’s a must-visit for those who appreciate design, innovation, and storytelling. Tower Bridge doesn’t just connect shores—it connects eras.

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.

    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.

    Went with an 11 year old who thought it might be boring. Her review afterwards was "brilliant " and "really good". Ticketing and organisation also good.
