The Crown Jewels Tour | Tickets and Venues – Direct from West End

A riotous comedy about an unbelieveable royal caper The Crown Jewels tour is announced.

The Crown Jewels Tour

Based on the true story of one of British history’s most audacious heist attempts, The Crown Jewels Tour comes direct from the West End.

The cast of this raucous royal affair includes Al Murray ( The Pub Landlord ) as Charles II/Talbot Edwards ;  Mel Giedroyc (BBC 1’s The Great British Bake Off , Channel 4’s Light Lunch ) as Mrs Edwards/French Noblewoman ; Carrie Hope Fletcher ( Bad Cinderella, Les Misérables, Heathers in the West End) as Elizabeth Edwards/ Lady of the Bedchamber ; Aidan McArdle ( Leopoldstadt,  West End, Ridley, ITV) as Colonel Blood ; Neil Morrissey (BBC 1’s Men Behaving Badly, Line of Duty ) as Captain Perrot/Tourist ; Joe Thomas (Channel 4’s The Inbetweeners , Fresh Meat, BBC 2’s White Gold ) as Tom Blood Jnr/ Tourist and Tanvi Virmani ( Life of Pi, West End) as Jenny Blaine/Jailer .

Written by the BAFTA-nominated creator of ITV’s The Durrells  and BBC 1’s  Men Behaving Badly, Simon Nye, and directed by multi-Olivier Award winner Sean Foley ( Upstart Crow, The Ladykillers ) it would be criminal to miss it.

Writer Simon Nye says: “I hope audiences will be as titillated and thrilled as I am at the prospect of a riotous comedy-drama about a crown jewels heist that really happened. The cast is an amazing array of comedy talent, and the subject matter is absurdly topical. Satire, sword-fighting, love, violence, an examination of the monarchy and Anglo-Irish relations – could you ask for anything more?”

Director Sean Foley continues: “I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to direct Simon Nye’s hilarious new play. An entirely modern take on the Restoration Comedy, it transports us to a completely different time – a time when England had a new king…whose name was Charles. I’m excited to be working with our brilliant cast, and we all hope to thoroughly entertain audiences.”

Charismatic and unpredictable Colonel Blood is planning the greatest heist of all time: stealing the Crown Jewels in plain sight. With a gang of misfits by his side, what could possibly go wrong? But Charles II can’t afford a royal scandal, and no King likes people handling their Crown Jewels…

The creative team is Sean Foley (Director); Simon Nye (Writer); Michael Taylor (Set and Costume Designer); Natasha Chivers (Lighting Designer), with Sound Design by Andy Graham and Music by Grant Olding. Props Supervisor is Lizzie Frankl for Propworks, Kate Dowling is the Associate Props Supervisor, Hilary Lewis is the Costume Supervisor, and Dewi Johnson is the Associate Director.

This section will provide information about the best times to visit, how to get here, and what to expect.

For more details, make sure to read our post about visiting the Tower of London .

Summer Hours (June 1st – September 18th)

• 9:00 – 17:30 (5:30 pm)

Winter Hours

• 9:00 – 16:30 (4:30 pm)
• 10:00 – 16:30 (4:30 pm) *last entry at 4 pm

Best Times to Visit

Some visitors recommend getting there as early as possible and heading straight to the Crown Jewels.

Due to their popularity, the only way to ensure you won't be waiting in line for a while is to get there while the crowds are still relatively small.

Consider arriving at the Tower of London right when it opens and doing your best to see this attraction between the hours of 9 am - 10 am .

To save time, consider an early bird tour that gets you into the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels before the general public.

Several guests also indicate you'll run into fewer crowds during weekday mornings than during the weekend.

They also note that weather can play a factor, as people are far less likely to visit the Tower of London on a rainy day than when the sun is out. 

What to Expect

Most people who choose to visit the Tower of London will spend at least 15-30 minutes in line waiting to see the Crown Jewels.

Plan on setting aside at least 45-60 minutes for the entire experience.

Many visitors recommend setting aside at least 3 hours to see the entirety of the Tower of London.

Several guests note that even that might not be enough time for everything, so prepare for the possibility that you will spend up to 5 hours at this landmark.

Please keep in mind that you will not be able to take any photographs while visiting the Crown Jewels. Cameras are strictly forbidden and visitors are not allowed to take pictures.

Be aware that guards may try to stop you if any attempt is made to use a camera or snap a shot of this exhibit.

WHAT ARE THE CROWN JEWELS?

One of the most enduring symbols of Monarchy, and the centrepiece of the Royal Collection, in the United Kingdom is the Crown Jewels and no visit to London should be undertaken without a visit to see this most stunning of collections.

The Jewels have been available for the public to observe for centuries and millions have traveled from around the world just to see these most remarkable creations. 

More than just a collection of crowns, the Crown Jewels actually encompass present and past crowns belonging to Sovereigns, Consorts, and Princes of Wales, scepters, rings, swords, orbs, spurs, robes, bracelets, and gold and silver plates!  

The ceremonial and symbolic objects used during the coronations of British Kings and Queens are collectively known as the Regalia.

Not just used for their beauty, these are the most treasured and revered items in the Crown Jewels, as these are the pieces that are used in the centuries-old coronation ceremonies.

The Jewels are the most powerful symbols of Monarchy, although technically they do not belong to the royal family but to the nation - and they hold both cultural and religious significance.

It is lucky that the jewels are on display today as throughout their history they have variously been lost (by King John in 1216), used as collateral (by Edward III in the 1370s), pawned (by the wife of King Charles I in the 1640s), broken down and sold during the English Civil War (by Oliver Cromwell), and nearly stolen (by Colonel Thomas Blood in 1671)!

The majority of the pieces on display today date from the 17 th century.

In 1660 King Charles II had a new set of Royal Regalia made – the ones on display today – however, there is one artifact that dates from before this time: the 12 th century Anointing Spoon (sometimes referred to as the coronation spoon) – still used in coronation ceremonies today.

When Charles commissioned the Crown Jewels, he spent the princely sum of £13,000.00 (around £1 million in today’s money).

He also spent a further £18,000 to create a set of banqueting plates and a golden altar, as well as a baptism font.

There are actually two baptism fonts held at the Tower of London today.

The first is the original commissioned by King Charles II but the second dates from the reign of Queen Victoria.

King Charles II is particularly notable for his string of mistresses and illegitimate children, many of whom he officially acknowledged and had baptised in the royal font.

Queen Victoria, a staunchly conservative woman, refused to have any of her children baptized in the same font as Charles II’s ‘bastards’ so she insisted that a new one, known as the Lily Font, be created just for her family!

Historically, the Jewels were kept behind bars and visitors were able to put their hands through the railings and touch the Jewels! Today, of course, such easy access to the Jewels is strictly prohibited.

Visitors to the Tower wishing to see the Crown Jewels will find them in the Jewel House currently in use, dating from 1994.

Visitors enter through vault doors containing electronic beams and steel shutters. The vault doors are said to be able to withstand a nuclear bomb blast!

All the jewels on display are resting on French velvet, and are kept behind 2in (51mm) thick shatter-proof glass and filtered air circulates in the cases that hold the Jewels.

Note that Scotland has their own Crown Jewels, kept at Edinburgh Castle , known as the Honours of Scotland. The collection includes a crown (made for King James V), a sceptre and a sword of state. The Honours were sealed away somewhere inside the castle after the union of Scotland and England and, eventually, their whereabouts were forgotten. They were uncovered in 1818 by Sir Walter Scott.

At one time, there were state Jewels of Ireland but these were stolen in 1907 and never recovered.

The following list highlights the most famous pieces of royal regalia, explaining what they are and how they are used.

St Edward’s Crown  

Dating from 1661, and considered the principal piece of the Regalia, this is the crown that is worn at the moment the monarch is crowned in Westminster Abbey.

The crown is named after Edward the Confessor and its’ last usage was at the coronation of our current King Charles III in May 2023.

This is the crown used as a symbol by the King and is the one depicted in coats of arms, badges, money, and other insignias (including the side of our famous red telephone boxes!) throughout the entire Commonwealth.

Weighing nearly 5 lbs, Queen Victoria chose not to be crowned with St. Edward’s because of the weight!

The Imperial State Crown  

This is easily the most famous piece of the Crown Jewels.

The Imperial State Crown dates from 1937 and is still used today – this being the crown that the Sovereign wears each year at the State Opening of Parliament.

The Crown consists of a purple velvet cap with an ermine border and holds 2,868 diamonds, 273 pearls, 17 sapphires, 11 emeralds, and 5 rubies.

The Crown famously is also home to Cullinan II (a cut of the largest diamond ever found at 3,106 carats and cut into 9 different pieces!), St. Edward’s Sapphire (thought to date from 1042), and the Black Prince’s Ruby (thought to date from the 14 th  century and weighing in at 170 carats).

The Crown of Queen Elizabeth , the Queen Mother

Made for Queen Elizabeth, the wife of King George VI in 1937 (our current King’s grandparents), the Crown of Queen Elizabeth was the first crown for a British consort made out of platinum. 

The arches on this crown are detachable so that it may be worn as a circlet instead (as she wore it during the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II).

It is set with 2,800 diamonds and holds the most famous diamond in the Royal Regalia: the Koh-i-Noor .

Previously the largest known diamond, originating in India and coming in at 793 carats uncut, visitors come from around the world simply to see this stunning diamond.

The Crown of Queen Mary

Originally created for Mary of Teck, wife of King George V, in 1911, the Crown of Queen Mary was designed to hold the previously mentioned Koh-i-Noor. Today, however, it contains Cullinan III, IV and V, in addition to 2,200 other diamonds. It has been used throughout the decades by various members of the royal family as a circlet.

It has been on display at the Tower of London since the death of Queen Mary in 1953. In 2023, the crown was partially altered and used for the coronation of Queen Camilla.

Sovereign’s Orb  

The Sovereign Orb weighs 42 ounces, is surrounded by pearls and gemstones, and was made for the coronation of King Charles II in 1660. 

Symbolically, the Orb represents the Monarch’s role as Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England.

The orb is placed in the Monarch’s right hand by the Archbishop of Canterbury during the coronation.

At the end of the ceremony, it is carried in the left hand, and in the right, the Sceptre [below] is held.

The Sovereign’s Sceptre with Cross  

Also known as St. Edward’s Sceptre or the Royal Sceptre, this piece holds The Star of Africa, or Cullinan I, a second cut of the same diamond found in the Imperial State Crown that was set into place in 1910.

Cullinan I, gifted to Kind Edward VII by the Transvaal Government, is still the largest colourless cut diamond in the entire world, weighing in at 530 carats.

This gem can be removed from the sceptre and worn as a broach.

About The Tour

Crown Jewels Morning Tour, 3 hours There is nothing quite like being in the Tower of London when its drawbridge is closed to all but you and the people who live there. Add to that a private viewing of the Crown Jewels and you have an incredibly special, unforgettable experience.

Arriving at this 900 year old fortress, you will be greeted by a Yeoman Warder (often known as a Beefeater) and walked via Traitors Gate, where prisoners entered and awaited their fate, and the execution site where no less than three Queens of England were executed. Then on to the Jewel House, which houses the uninsurable, priceless Crown Jewels!

From here the Duty Warden will welcome you and then you will be guided through the exhibition to the piece de resistance, the stunning jewels. This dazzling display includes the St Edward’s Crown, that has adorned every crowned Monarch’s head since 1661; the Monarch’s sceptre holding the largest clear cut diamond in the world at 530 carats. And the Imperial State Crown that Her Majesty described as her best hat!

You are welcome to stay in the Tower at your leisure after it opens to the public. Crown Jewels, Evening Tour 3 hours If you are looking for the ultimate exclusive evening experience in London, then you’ve found it! Entering the Tower of London once it has closed its doors for the night is truly incredible. Arriving at the Tower, you will be greeted by a Yeoman Warder, a guardian of the fortress. You are led through the grounds of the Tower, that has imprisoned some of the most famous people in our history, including three Queens of England who ultimately met their untimely death here. You pass the Bloody Tower; Traitors Gate, where prisoners entered by barge to await their fate and the central keep (pictured), constructed in the 11th Century, by William the Conqueror on your way to the Jewel House. Here in the Hall of Monarchs, you can enjoy the display of all of our Monarchs from 1066 to present day whilst being served with prosecco and canapes.

After the reception, you are led through the impossibly secure vault doors to view a mesmerizing display of sensational jewels. Marvel at the 530 carat diamond adorning the Monarch’s sceptre, see the stunning all diamond crown worn by Queen Victoria, anything but diamonds gave her a headache and the Queen’s ‘Best Hat’, containing a staggering 3000 jewels!

After the private viewing, you will be escorted back through the Tower by a Yeoman Warder.

Review: Tower of London Guided Tour (with Opening Ceremony & Crown Jewels)

By: Author Tracy Collins

Posted on Last updated: November 25, 2023

👑 Discover an exclusive Tower of London Guided Tour which includes both VIP access to the Jewel House & the experience of witnessing the opening ceremony with a small group & accompanied by an expert tour guide.

This post may contain compensated links. Please refer to my  disclaimer  here for more information.

One of the most famous landmarks to visit in London is the Tower of London. With some parts standing for over 1150 years the Tower has been (amongst other things over the years) a royal residence, an arsenal, a royal mint, a prison, a place of execution and even housed a menagerie. Today the Tower is not only home to the Crown Jewels but also 40 Yeoman of the Guard and their families.

Exploring the Tower of London is one of the most popular things to do in many London itineraries and it is somewhere we have visited many times.

While it is possible to simply buy a ticket and explore the Tower without a guide there are some experiences which are not accessible in this way. One of these is the opening ceremony which is one of the oldest military ceremonies in the world and is only available to a small group of people each day.

If you wish to have exclusive access to not only the opening ceremony but also first access to the Jewel House to view the Crown Jewels before the crowds arrive you are going to love the exclusive Early Access Crown Jewels with Opening Ceremony and Complete Tower of London Guided Tour by Walks .

While we have visited the Tower many times we had not experienced the opening ceremony (or seen the Crown Jewels without standing in line) we were lucky enough to enjoy both when we took this exclusive tour with Walks. In this article, we share what to expect.

This is the perfect tour for those who enjoy history, who would like to see a little more and perhaps wish to have exclusive access to experience some of England’s traditions first-hand.

Overview of the Tower of London Guided Tour

The tour begins at 8.30 am when you meet your Walks tour guide at the entrance to the Tower of London. With your group (maximum 20) you then follow your guide through the gates and into the ground of the Tower where he hands you over to one of the 40 Yeoman of the Guard.

The Yeoman explains what you are about to witness and ensures everyone is standing in the correct places. Shortly afterwards you are privileged to be one if the few to observe the Opening Ceremony.

Following this you have first entry to the Jewel House. A guided tour of the Tower of London is next which includes the old execution site, the Bloody Tower and Torture Chamber, the restored bedroom of Edward I, and more.

The tour runs 2 hours 45 mins after which you are free to explore other parts of the Tower.

Highlights of the tour

The tour can roughly be divided into 3 parts – the Opening Ceremony , entry to the Jewel House and the guided tour . While there are a number of highlights what really makes this tour special is the knowledge that you are standing with only a few others that day to witness the opening of the Tower which was the standout moment for me.

During the opening ceremony, the Duty Yeoman Warder is escorted by 4 members of the King’s guard to officially open the Tower of London for the day. Both the middle Tower and the Byward Tower are unlocked and the public allowed to enter.

We had an excellent view of the ceremony and also had Chris (our Yeoman Warder guide at this point) explaining what was happening.

Once the ceremony was concluded we were escorted to the Jewel House where we had first entry before the crowds descended. This was fantastic as we were able to enter straight into the building and see the jewels without lining up. Often the wait can be up to one hour!

In fact, we took to the travelators (which take you past the jewels) a number of times so we could get a good look! This is just not possible when it is busy. While I have seen the jewels before I have never been able to spend as much time truly admiring their beauty!

And thirdly we were able to learn about the Tower from our guide. Whilst we had taken the free Yeoman Warder Guard tours previously we appreciated the ability to ask questions and engage with our guide in a small group. This is very difficult to do with a free tour due to the large number of people.

About your tour guide

Our experienced tour guide (Guy) was extremely knowledgeable about the Tower of London and its history and shared lots of interesting facts and stories which really brought the history alive.

He also illustrated many points with pictures (of the various historical figures) and it was fascinating to hear about some of the people who have resided in the Tower (whether voluntarily or not!) over the years!

We 100% agree with Walks when they say that their guides “are educators and story-tellers, not lecturers or script-readers. They live to share their passion with well-informed, curious travelers who want to learn and be entertained.”

Most memorable moment of the tour

The Opening Ceremony was such a special event to see. While it may happen every day it is not accessible to many so it did feel like such a privilege to witness.

This exclusive tour with Walks makes this experience possible and with a group of 20 as a maximum, there is no worry about actually being able to see or hear what is going on!

Who should experience this tour?

If you want to see the Crown Jewels without the crowds and be one of only a few to witness the daily opening of the Tower of London – one of the oldest military ceremonies in the world – this tour is for you.

Early Entry Tower of London Tour with the Beefeaters

Witness a centuries-old tradition before seeing the crown jewels with fewer crowds.

Prefer an early morning visit to the Tower of London that comes with a bonus? Then you’ll love this chance to watch the famous Beefeaters ceremoniously open the gates after making you laugh at their jokes. And you’ll be able to grab that essential photo with the Beefeater guards before being one of the first to see the crown jewels! Of course, your guide will also make sure to lead you through the stories of this centuries-old fortress as you explore the massive grounds here.

Open the Tower of London Gates

• Witness historic tradition
• Early entry to the Tower
• Beefeater's Quarters
• Crown Jewels
• Traitor's Gate
• Tales of the Tower
• Wakefield and Bloody Towers
• Tower Green
• White Tower

Meet your engaging local guide near the entrance of the Tower of London where you'll gather with your small group to witness the traditional opening ceremony by the Beefeaters. It's a surprisingly fun experience despite how important it is too. Afterwards, enjoy a guided tour to see the Tower’s highlights like seeing the crown jewels, meeting the resident ravens, and learning a darker side of English history.

Early Access Tower of London Tour Description

Your 2-hour guided tour includes:

Tower of London opening ceremony

Fun stories and pictures with the Beefeaters

Early access to the crown jewels

In-depth guided tour with Traitor’s Gate, Bloody Tower, and more

Friendly, knowledgeable tour guide

Maximum group size of 20

Your early-access Tower of London tour starts with military precision—and more laughs than you might expect. The Beefeaters fulfill this opening ceremony tradition that dates back to the 15th century! It's a serious affair only because the fortress is actually considered an active palace that the reining monarch could live in, if needed.

Follow your guide for a great view of this unique event. You'll hear the guards perform as if it's a dramatic, royal proclamation. But the Beefeaters also know how to entertain you as you watch them prepare the fortress for visitors, so expect some interactions with you and your group.

Early Access to the Crown Jewels

With your early access, you have the option to head straight to the Jewel House and avoid what later becomes an hour-long line to get in. Enjoy your quieter viewing of the most valuable items in British history. On the way there from the gate, your guide will share fascinating details about the 140 valuables bedazzled by priceless stones and coronation regalia of the English monarchy.

Some older items were destroyed during the English Civil War when the monarchy was temporarily abolished, but the collection was rebuilt in 1660 and remains an incredible display of royal riches. Watch for the oldest piece in the collection!

The Bloody Tower, Tower Green, and More

Established in the 11th century by William the Conqueror, this imposing fortress on the River Thames has played prison, palace, armory, and execution house through its long history. The iconic resident ravens will be watching from the walls as your guide leads you to the most important sites.

You'll see where prisoners were brought in from the river at Traitor’s Gate, the royal chapel, the Bloody Tower, and Tower Green where two of Henry VIII’s wives were executed. With all that and more, it's lucky you're with a guide to navigate this fortress and understand just what you're seeing!

The White Tower

The castle keep at the center of the Tower of London grounds was established by William the Conqueror as a symbol of Britain’s new power. It holds nearly 1,000 years of history within its thick stone walls that you can explore. Guides are not allowed in this building, but they'll be happy to share what you should watch for if you want to explore it on your own after your tour ends.

Great Experience

Our guide, Ben, was knowledgeable, patient and just over all wonderful. I had my five year old grandchild and he modified some aspects, including her in so she felt a part of the group. He even made sure she had a prime spot to watch the opening ceremony. I would highly recommend him!

Tower of London

This tour was excellent from start to finish, we would highly recommend it! Skip the line in the morning with no crowds and watching the Beefeaters open the Tower gates , is the only way to go. Thanks Nick , you knew your history , you were easy to listen to and the added humor was a bonus .

Great site!

Our tour leader was good . Getting to see the Crown Jewels before the crowds and meeting the Beefeaters was a nice addition. I think this site is best for families instead of adults on their own. There were Halloween activities that were made for youngsters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What to bring?

Please wear comfortable walking shoes and clothes to suit the weather forecast.

Can I take photos at the Tower of London?

Photography is allowed in most areas, with the exception of the Jewel House and the Chapel of St. John.

Will the tour guide be with me the whole time?

Mostly, yes. However, the Tower of London does not allow licensed guides to enter the Jewel House or the White Tower. Your guide will share tons of fascinating information about these sites to prepare you to visit on your own.

Do we enter the tower before the crowds?

Mostly, yes. There are limited tickets for the opening ceremony so the general public won't be inside yet.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!
