Default The Tower Of London - Guided Tour !!

Be warned, this lasts for the full tour - nearly 50 minutes, but this gent, one Bill Callaghan is probably the best of the lot, and they're all good.

Default The Tower Of London - Guided Tour!!

Here in the States we were taught that if you were a British subject in times past, the last thing you wanted was a guided tour of the Tower of London...

That was great. He was very animated and I loved his dry humor. It was nice to relive my own tour back in '95.

Just avoid the barbershop. "Take a little off the top" means something different there.

My wife and I went there in 2015 and while we didn't get that gent, our guide was very good!

Wonderful trip!

Best,
PJ
