Great family tour - We had a fabulous time at the Tower! Our guide Timothy was top notch! Great with the kids and answered all of my questions. We loved being in a small group with our own guide to provide a tour catered to what we were interested in

Kid friendly and engaging your at Tower of London - We had a great experience with Mehru, who was very knowledgeable and engaging with our four year old. She was very flexible with our needs and tailored her information to be kid friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the crown jewels and the various towers. She even offered to take a few family photos, which was so sweet. I highly highly recommend this tour with Mehru.

Gavin is the Best Tour Guide!!!!! - Gavin was amazing! We were running late for unforeseen circumstances and he waited patiently for us. It was quite a surprise when we were the only ones on the tour. It was a perfect day for seeing the crown jewels and the tower. Gavin made it fun and very interesting. My youngest daughter kept saying the entire trip how Gavin was the best tour we had because he remembered her name and no one else. To top it off it was lunchtime and Gavin reserved my family a table at a local restaurant to have lunch before our next tour. I would recommend him to everyone!

Worth every penny with kids - Absolutely excellent—Mehru was so well prepared, incredibly informed, and kept our 6 and 8 year old boys fully engaged for a three hour tour (not an easy task)! We learned so much; worth every penny. Highly recommend that anyone with children request Mehru for this experience.

Good Tour- not as “kid friendly” as hoped - Tower of London is super cool and having your own guide is a very nice luxury. The private tour was not as family focused as much as I had hoped. The guide did not introduce himself to the entire family nor learn the kids names or their interests. Without knowing their interest, it is hard to identify which parts of the towers immense history is most engaging for the family. The tour focused more on the history or importance of specific parts of the castle, but there wasn’t a streaming narrative- or story- for the kids to better understand the importance of the events discussed nor was the drama and intrigue of the events fully captured. The guide was clearly knowledgeable of British and tower history- and for a non-family focused toir would have been 4-5 stars. But the tour was priced at a premium for kids friendly and it was not as kid friendly as the premium would imply.

Tower of london - We enjoyed the history provided by our tour guide but thought he ended the tour without warning. We would have liked to stay within the ticketed area a little longer
