It is quite an experience to go up and wander around Tower Bridge; there are good views and some info on the history of the bridge but this could be improved! Nice little gift shop!

It is one of my favourite views in the whole world, no matter which side of the river you are, no matter whether it's daylight or dark... it's a fantastic bridge with a grey-skyblue color mix that I like a lot. If you are lucky enough you can see the bascules raise for a best memorable moment. Take the exhibition... More

An iconic bridge, beautiful bridge but the tour itself was just average. Up in a lift, shown a fairly interesting short film about the structure and its history, then through to the walkways where (if the weather is decent you can get some ok pictures of London. You get much better views from elsewhere though (London Eye, St Paul's, The... More

A fabulous testament to the past. It stands proud and glorious, the exhibition is well worth the entrance fee.

The bridge tour was very interesting and informative. My only complaint was up top the views where a little restricted. The engine room was pretty awesome as well.

Splendid - The most iconic bridge in London. Staying less than a mile away from it ensured that we came walking as often as we could to enjoy the beauty of the bridge. It is right next to 'The Tower of London' which is also worth a visit, though it has an entry fees. The Tower is bridge has a... More

Very interesting engineering, good views. At the time of our visit there was an excellent photo exhibit of other bridges on display at the top of the bridge. Worth the visit just for the photo exhibit.

a great way to look across london and see the way the city has spread. an interesting and informative afternoon great for kids with an engineering aspect to their education. if the victorians can build this to last why is the modern age so bad at getting it right?
