"Gavin was FANTASTIC! He toured my husband and11 year old son around the Tower of London. My husband and son said that Gavin surpassed all expectations. Not only did Gavin masterfully navigate the crowds, but he provided information and context that consumed my 11 year old's attention for hours. My son walked away from the experience knowing more about English history than any classroom experience or textbook assignment could have offered."
TripAdvisor: Review of the Tower of London

The Tower of London




Experience the Tower of London in style with me as your private tour guide and get an understanding of this incredibly important World Heritage Site.
​
Built by William the Conqueror after his invasion of England in 1066. With almost 1000 years of history, the Tower has been a fortress, palace, prison, observatory, and even a zoo!
​
It is also where you will be able to marvel at the Crown Jewels, the largest and most complete collection in the world. From the incredible Imperial State with 2,868 diamonds!! To the 350-year-old St Edward Crown, used solely for the coronations.
​
I will also tell you about the "bloody" history of the Tower and the ghosts who are often haunting the walk ways and turrets!
