Tower Bridge’s Behind-the-Scenes Tours

AO-Tower-Bridge-2

Tower Bridge's exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Tours return in November 2025.

The expert-led tours offer rare access to normally hidden spaces including the Bascule Chambers deep beneath the Thames.

This year's programme also marks Tower Bridge's most inclusive to date, with the addition of BSL-interpreted tours alongside a growing range of accessible visitor experiences.

The tours run on selected dates between November 2025 and March 2026.

The regular tours of Tower Bridge include walking on the Glass Floors suspended 42 metres above the Thames and skyline views from the High-level Walkways to visiting the Victorian Engine Rooms.

Dating back to 1894, Tower Bridge is one of London's defining landmarks and one of its top tourist attractions.

Designed by Sir Horace Jones and John Wolfe Barry, the Bridge took eight years to complete and was the largest, most significant bascule bridge of its time.

Tower Bridge, with its distinct Gothic-style towers and bascules that lift to allow ships to pass, is part of City Bridge Foundation, London's largest independent charity funder, which maintains all five bridges.

These other four bridges are:

  • London Bridge: The current version is a modern, understated bridge, but the site has been a crossing point for centuries and has a rich history.
  • Southwark Bridge: An arch bridge that connects the City of London with Southwark.
  • Millennium Bridge: A pedestrian-only suspension bridge that opened in 2000, famously nicknamed the "Wobbly Bridge" due to its initial swaying, and
  • Blackfriars Bridge: A road and pedestrian bridge with distinctive red-tinged ironwork, located next to the Blackfriars Railway Bridge.
