Glass walkways, engine rooms and skyline views

Walk inside one of London’s best-known landmarks and see the city from 42 metres above the River Thames. Tower Bridge tickets include entry to the North and South Towers, the High-Level Walkways and the Victorian Engine Rooms.
You can take your time across the famous glass floors, spot London landmarks from above, then head down to the original Engine Rooms to see the machinery that once powered the bridge lifts. It is a self-guided visit, so it works well for families who want to explore at their own pace.
There are also free added extras on selected dates, including family activities and audio tour options. If you are planning a full day in the capital, browse more London days out.

Tower Bridge tickets give you more than a walk across the river. You get access inside the landmark itself, with a route that takes you through both towers, across the high walkways and down into the original Engine Rooms.
The big family favourite is the glass floor, where you can look down at the traffic and river below. From the walkways, you also get wide views across London, including the Thames and some of the city’s best-known sights.
Down in the Engine Rooms, you can see the Victorian machinery that once powered the bridge lifts and learn how Tower Bridge worked behind the scenes. It is a strong mix of views, history and hands-on interest for children and adults alike.
The official attraction is suitable for children aged 4+, with under 18s accompanied by an adult. For more city inspiration, take a look at other things to do in London before you book.

The High-Level Walkways sit 42 metres above the river and give you clear views east and west across London. The glass floors add an extra thrill, especially for children who like something a bit different.

The Victorian Engine Rooms are part of the standard route and show the machinery that powered Tower Bridge for decades. It is one of the best parts of the visit if your family enjoys engineering, transport or history.

You book a timeslot in advance, then explore at your own pace once inside. That makes it easy to fit into a wider London day out without following a fixed guided schedule.
