Acerca de Torre de Londres y Joyas de la Corona

The Tower of London is one of the most iconic things to do in London and a must-visit for anyone exploring the capital. Nearly 1,000 years of living history are packed into this extraordinary fortress on the banks of the Thames. Founded by William the Conqueror in 1066, the Tower has served as a royal palace, prison, armoury, treasury and even a zoo. Walk the same corridors as Anne Boleyn, Sir Walter Raleigh and Guy Fawkes — and hear their stories brought to life by the legendary Yeoman Warders, retired military servicemen and women who live on-site and deliver some of the most entertaining tours in London.

The Crown Jewels are the undisputed highlight — a dazzling collection of 23,578 gemstones including the legendary Koh-i-Noor diamond and the Imperial State Crown worn at every coronation. But there is so much more to discover: the White Tower houses a stunning collection of royal armour dating back to Henry VIII, the Medieval Palace reveals how kings once lived within these walls, and the ravens — legend says if they ever leave, the kingdom will fall — strut around the grounds with unmistakable attitude. Allow at least three hours to do the Tower justice, and arrive early to beat the Crown Jewels queue.

Located right beside Tower Hill tube station, the Tower of London sits in one of the most rewarding corners of the city for sightseeing. Step outside and you are immediately next to Tower Bridge, where you can walk the glass-floored walkways 42 metres above the Thames. Just along the river, HMS Belfast offers another fascinating slice of British history. If you want to book tickets for the Tower of London and combine it with nearby attractions, this stretch of the Thames waterfront makes for a brilliant full day out in London.

The Tower is equally rewarding for families, history enthusiasts and first-time visitors to London. Children love the hands-on activity trails, the armour displays and the resident ravens, while adults are captivated by the sheer weight of history in every stone. For a perfect London itinerary, pair your visit with a ride on the Thames Uber Boat to see the city from the water. Whether you are planning a weekend break or a longer stay, the Tower of London belongs at the top of your list.

Absolutamente increíble. La visita guiada con los Yeoman Warders fue lo más destacado: nuestro guía fue graciosísimo y sabía muchísimo. Las Joyas de la Corona me dejaron sin aliento.

Pasamos casi cuatro horas aquí y podríamos habernos quedado más tiempo. Hay tanta historia en cada rincón. A los niños les encantaron las armaduras de la White Tower.
