Overview
The Tower of London holds not only the oldest museum in London, but in Britain, and one of the first museums in the world! But it is so much more than just a museum (a prison, fortress, palace, zoo!) and has been a lot throughout its history. The Royal Armouries was opened to the public in 1660, but held its first displays in 1592. Woah, that’s a long time! Built in 1066, it has survived for over 900 years. But with so much history to explore in one building, how can you make it through with the kids without spending a millennium there yourself? Meet the Locals for Families has crafted a special scavenger hunt to guide you through this very special monument so that you can make sure to see all the highlights while keeping your whole family entertained.
Why should you visit the Tower of London while in town? This iconic castle holds an unbelievable amount of history. It has been used as a royal palace, a fortress, a prison, and even a zoo! Throughout its history, it has served as a treasury, public record office, and home to the Crown Jewels of England. Famous prisoners include Anne Boleyn, her daughter Queen Elizabeth I (who was imprisoned there but also stayed there in the days before her coronation), Sir Walter Raleigh, Guy Fawkes, and countless others. Regardless of your interests, you are sure to find something to pique them in the Tower of London.
Discover one of the most iconic monuments of London : the Tower of London!
Why should you visit the Tower of London with Meet the Locals? Paired with a kid-friendly certified guide and an amusing activity booklet, this will be no ordinary tour of the Tower of London. Your young investigators will need to follow the clues and solve funny riddles in their booklets to traverse the Tower. But don’t worry, if they get stuck, your “Mary Poppins” guide will drop a few hints when needed. These special storytellers know how to transport the whole family through time, not just the kids! At Meet the Locals for Families, our goal is to ensure that the whole family has fun while learning, and this tour is certainly no exception.
So what are you waiting for? Come solve the scavenger hunt in this royal castle, speak with the ravens guarding the towers, visit the decadent Crown Jewels of England, and create lasting memories with your loved ones. See you there!

FAQ
Will we get to see the Crown Jewels?
Yep! But there might be a line to see the Crown Jewels. During the high season, this line can be very long and there are no skip-the-line tickets for anyone. You will get to see them, but if there is a long line, the tour might last a little longer than expected.
Will we have skip-the-line tickets?
These don’t quite exist in London. You will have priority access with your certified Blue Badge guide, but will still have to wait in line a bit to go through security.
For what ages is this tour suitable?
All ages! Your “Mary Poppins” is a skilled guide that has been perfectly trained to adapt their speech to family members of every age.
It was once a zoo- will we get to see any animals?
It isn’t a zoo in the same sense anymore, but there might just be some eternal animals waiting for you to spot them 😀

If you stumble upon this tour like we did, TAKE IT! Seriously, I will never go on a tour with my kids again that isn’t some kind of game or treasure hunt like this one. Nothing has ever kept their attention like this so other tours have felt like money wasted. Thank you Meet the Locals!

Never sure what to say in a review but kids loved it and we definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting London with children.
