Tower of London with the London Pass
The Crown Jewels, the Yeoman Warder tours and the White Tower are open to you with the London Pass, no booking needed. This page explains how the visit works and when the pass pays off for the Tower.
Key facts in brief
- With the London Pass you get into the Tower of London without booking: you show the pass at the entrance. Allow at least two hours.
- Without a pass, adult admission costs £37. The London Pass includes it, and on the Explorer Pass it counts as one of your attractions.

When the pass pays off here
For this sight alone, no pass pays off: entry costs £37, a one-day London Pass £105.00.
It is a different story if you add Tower Bridge, Thames river cruise and St Paul’s Cathedral on the same day. Then the admissions add up to £107. The London Pass for one day costs £105.00 and saves you £2.
The Tower is well placed for a full pass day: Tower Bridge is a few minutes’ walk away, and the Thames boats stop at Tower Pier right in front of the entrance.
