Ghost tours

After hours, this legendary fortress takes on a whole new personality. Join a Yeoman Warder for a spine-tingling Ghost Tour through the darkened grounds, where stories of executions, betrayals and unexplained sightings have been passed down for centuries.

As you walk beneath the illuminated White Tower and through atmospheric medieval streets, you'll hear tales of the famous figures who are said to haunt these historic walls. From Anne Boleyn to Lady Jane Grey, discover why the Tower remains one of Britain's most haunted places.

With exclusive evening access and plenty of chilling stories along the way, this is history after dark.

Recommended for families, friends, date nights and anyone who enjoys their history with a darker twist.
