City Cruises & Tower of London Combo:
Join City Cruises and cast off from any of their four piers located along the banks of the River Thames. Hop-on and off at your leisure for 24 hours between piers at Westminster, the London Eye, Bankside, Tower Bridge and Greenwich. Enjoy either live or pre-recorded onboard audio commentary about London and its incredible 2000 year history. This combination ticket also includes entry to the Tower of London.
The thousand-year-old Tower of London is one of the city's oldest and most iconic landmarks. Each year thousands of tourists are drawn in by the grim allure of its darker side as a former high-security prison and dungeon for prolific prisoners during the Tudor era.
Torture chambers and political intrigue are, however, just one aspect of this amazing fortress. Nowadays the keep and its surrounding buildings beguile visitors with age old displays of tradition, historical reenactments, and popular guided tours by Yeoman Warders, the famous 'Beefeaters' themselves.
