Explore British history on this exclusive after-hours Tower of London tour featuring the Ceremony of the Keys and learn about the majestic Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula, from a Beefeater guide.
Experience the Tower of London like never before with this exclusive after-hours tour. Once the gates close to the public and evening fog rolls in, step into the storied grounds led by a real Yeoman Warder, known as a Beefeater, and uncover the Tower’s dark and fascinating past.

Wander through the outer grounds as haunting tales of betrayal, power, and imprisonment come to life. Stand before the infamous Traitor’s Gate and learn how the Tower became one of history’s most feared prisons. Uncover the surprising origins of the Tower as both a royal palace and a menagerie for exotic animals. Explore iconic sites like the White Tower, Tower Green, and more, all from the outside, as you hear tales of their fascinating past.

Learn about the rarely accessed Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula, the final resting place of some of history’s most famous figures, including Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard, Lady Jane Grey, and Sir Thomas More. Hear the powerful stories of this sacred space from outside and feel the weight of history and the enduring legacy of those who shaped England’s past.

Your guide, a living part of the Tower’s legacy, adds depth to the experience, with every Yeoman Warder boasting decades of military service and a deep connection to this historic site.

The highlight of the evening is the Ceremony of the Keys, a nightly tradition unchanged for over 700 years. Watch as the Chief Warder officially locks the Tower in a time-honored ritual that transports you back in time.

This after-hours tour is more than a visit—it’s a rare chance to see the Tower in its most atmospheric and exclusive setting. Spaces are limited, so book now for an unforgettable evening of history, tradition, and storytelling.
