Tower Bridge was fantastic experience. I was keen to go to start with but it exceeded my expectations. It's a bit like a travel in time as you see and read about the victorian architecture, facts and anecdotes from the construction times, and a bit of a fantastic sightseeing, as views from the top are amazing. Make sure you have space for photos on your phone.

Getting there was easy and well-signposted, and the access was very well organized. The staff were friendly and answered all our questions. We’ll definitely book this tour with Headout again!

A wonderful trip. For a very attractive price, I received two wonderful attractions that, individually, would have cost me even more. I highly recommend it.

Yes enjoyed & yes manage to walk over the glass bridge. It was a shame that you couldn't do the engine room first or be given the option. You walk to middle of bridge for entrance to Tower bridge then when that's finished you have to walk all the way back & down steps yet again to then go to engine room. The lifts weren't working I thought it could be great to be given a choose which way you choose to do it as we were also doing Tower of London & then we had to then walk across again so for me it would of been better doing Engine room first

The tour was good. Worth going. But don't book the tour with audio guide because it's free anyway. So don't pay extra for something that's offered for free once you get there.

It was an unforgettable experience, especially since we brought our 5-year-old daughter along this time. As you know, with kids, you can’t pack too many attractions into one day, one after another. In fact, every time we finished one, we could see how much energy our little girl still had, and with her “permission,” we’d plan another one—all while keeping the site’s prices much lower than those of other sites. Precise schedules, no booking issues, and secure payments

Enjoy timed access to one of London’s most iconic landmarks, including entry to the North and South Towers, glass-floor walkways, and the Victorian Engine Rooms.

Step out onto the glass-floored walkways suspended 42 meters above the River Thames and watch as double-decker buses and riverboats pass beneath your feet.

Travel back in time in the original Engine Rooms and uncover the steam-powered machinery that once raised the bridge’s bascules.

Discover over 135 years of Tower Bridge history through immersive exhibits, animated displays, and tales that connect you with London’s rich heritage.

Upgrade your experience to include a Thames cruise from Tower Bridge to Westminster after an English guided tour of Tower Bridge, or explore London with a city audio guide.

We found the signage very poor at Tower Bridge and trying to get to the engine rooms not clear at all. We seemed to walk along the bridge one way or the other. The weather was bad so the staff were trying to stay dry and not being helpful. Did the same trip 10 years ago and was much better.
