The Tower of London is one of those places that we just HAD to visit on this trip! There is so much history there! Good and bad… If you visit, you must take the guided tour from the Yeomen Warders. They are incredibly knowledgeable and very entertaining.
There is a sad history of murder and torture here. But we must know the history so we don’t make the same mistakes!
We also got a close up view of Tower Bridge and took a great tour on the Ricer Thames… and yes, we now know we were pronouncing it wrong… sorry!

Really appreciated your extended showing of the Yeoman Warder. They are all retired warrant officers (sergeant majors) in the British Armed Forces and most live in houses within the Tower. They are all great raconteurs and, whichever takes you on the tour, excellent guides.

True! It is also my understanding that it is of great privilege for the very few retired non commissioned personnel who actually get to be a Yeoman Warder. If you noticed during the Queen's funeral, the Yeomen did walk the procession. These are not just tour guides, but actual retired armed forces personnel, who assist in guarding the Tower, as I understand it. As you probably saw and know, outside of the crown jewels hall stand at LEAST two highly armed, armed forces personnel with automatic weapons. And yes, they can and will spring into action if required as I understand it (please correct me if I'm wrong, anyone!). That is why your Yeomen was loud and proud. They are retired armed forces personnel who know and respect their positions, and are there to help you understand the Tower, and the history of the Tower. Your Yeoman Warder was fantastic! They are all different, and may tell you variations of what they know. What a tour! Highly recommend. And yes, they DO live in quarters on site and are on guard duty at times. That is why your Yeoman was talking about being on duty during the evening, and felt a chill go down his neck near the entry of the Traitor's Gate ... (he stated he did not believe in ghosts). They also have their own pub on site within the walls. I hope your Yeoman showed you that! Cheers, and thanks for all that you do! Also, if I'm wrong, I hope people who are in the know, help correct what I typed ... (-:

You’re London videos are far superior than any Travel Show We literally have such a high interest in travelling to London now. We probably will now as a stop over on our way to Rome next September Thank you so much!!!! Oh and didn’t realize you’ve already passed us twice on your way to Alaska.

Gratifying to see you've been enjoying, and learning about our endlessly fascinating city. I was born here 70 years ago, and having tried 3 times to relocate elsewhere - here I still am, still enjoying the vast variety of life in "the Smoke", as London used to be called. The Tower of London is one of those "must see" places definitely worth the entrance fee. (I think right now America could do with its' own "Traitors Gate" for 45 and his cronies!) Ahem! - The Thames is pronounced "Tems", not "Taims". Sorry, but I just can't help it - my hackles rise every time you say "Taims"! Happy travels, folks.

You're incorrect in your conclusion that I commented on "others politics". I simply made an off-the-cuff, and lighthearted comment about your ex-President. The comment I made may (I suppose), suggest to you what is my own political stance, but I implied nothing about "others". As for what you "think is improper for this channel" - well we're both free to have our own opinions, and really neither are of great importance. Are you perhaps positioning yourself as some sort of moderator? To use a modern idiom, "Geez, lighten up!" (May I add, I've never heard of the KZbin comments section referred to as, "polite society"!). Wishing you too, a very good day.

I often walk past the Tower and that's exactly what I always think. What must the city have looked like when it was built? What would all the people that were around then, and in the many centuries since, think about London now and everything that has happened in between? And what will it look like in another 1,000 years? That's why history is so fascinating and you did a great job of capturing it.

A thousand years ago, Norman London looked totally different to Roman London (Londinium) when they left 600 years before that. A completely walled city that had been partly taken down in places and many of the buildings, most in decay by Norman times, so the brick and stone (Roman Concrete as well, broken up) could be used.

I'm English but don't live in London but have visited many times. London is fabulous and has loads of famous history which needs a long time to get round. I've never been to the tower of London unfortunately, but your video showed me a bit more than I've seen on some television documentaries. That meal towards the end of this video looked amazing, the chicken looked very good but the steak had me salivating ... yum yum. I hope that you return sometime soon and take in more sights of our capital before trying our many other sights around the UK. xxx

I absolutely love the way you chose to see London, you did everything right, no rushing about, just stopping for pints and sitting down at restaurants. London can be overwhelming, but if you stop rushing and trying to do everything straight away and just stop and look around and take it all it, it can really be quite magical. You can see new cities or old cities but where else can you see a 500yr building almost right next to a new hyper modern glass skyscraper, I just can't get enough of london

What a brilliant vlog! You've taken be to bits of the city where I live where I haven't been before! I like your point that you should have done the boat trip at the beginning - when we go to new locations in Britain we haven't been to before, we do a sightseeing tour on the first day (a lot of places have those sightseeing buses). This has several plus points - you can sit down and have a rest after travelling without wasting time in the hotel room; it helps you get your bearings in an unfamiliar location; and as you say the guide gives you suggestions of where to go

As Dr Johnson once said “when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London, all that life can afford” - I have lived in and worked in “London” all my life and whilst I have been to all the usual and major “tourist attractions”, there are places and museums that I have yet to visit! It is fascinating seeing my home town through “your eyes” and seeing your interest and delight at things we just take for granted because they have “always been there”! I haven’t been to the Tower or climbed inside Tower Bridge for about 30 years, haven’t done a river trip either for the same amount of time and have always lived in a town close to the River and could have easily just jumped on a boat to go to Westminster! I have visited most of the Museums but have never visited the Victoria & Albert (V&A) or the Tate Modern and I haven’t even gone shopping in Harrods Department Store! When you do next visit, try to come to ‘my’ part of England, whilst I live in the County of Kent, it is actually on the borders of Greater London - a 30 minute train time journey - and there is so much to see and do in the County. Greenwich is also a “must visit” (place of my birth!) - the National Maritime Museum, the Observatory, the Royal Naval College, the tea clipper The Cutty Sark, a beautiful park and - most importantly the Meridian Line - home of GMT - Greenwich Mean Time! As Greenwich is on the River Thames, you can get a boat FROM Westminster Pier to Greenwich! Hope you can visit again soon 🙂xx and I will look forward to your next visit here and vids about your travels xx

One hopped on the fence and as I raised my camera I remarked, “ Now be good and let me take a picture.” He not only fluffed his feathers, but he turned from front to side pose which we took. We still laugh about it.

The River Thames (pronounced Tems) is a tidal river. When the tide is out people can walk along the bed of the river (this area is called the foreshore). People search along the foreshore and can dig in the mud looking for old artefacts that they can find. This past time is called mudlarking. There are KZbin channels showing mudlarking finds, which you might enjoy. It's great seeing our capital through the eyes of newcomers.

I grew up about 2-3 miles from the tower and went there regularly when I was a child. Seeing your film it hardly seems possible that at that time was allowed to touch and play with most of the exhibits that are now behind glass. This was true until the early 1970's when someone planted a bomb within the armoury and everything was made more secure.

I love it when Americans visit my country. Their enthusiasm is so infectious and you both bring a great deal of this to your video. I suppose London is a great draw to foreigners but it's hardly experiencing English culture, a bit like me visiting Los Angeles or New York. The difference is of course your own Country is multicultural from it's inception and the UK has only been multicultural for about 50 or so years. London, being one of the most cosmopolitan places on earth so I don't think you had a single meal that was truly English including our famous Breakfast which was probably your most obvious omission. Please, please return and do another series, I would highly recommend you toured around Cornwall, The Lake District and Scotland and spent as much time in the rural areas of Britain where most of our culture, food, way of life and indigenous people now reside. happy travels!

Just been there yesterday and had the same type of tour! It seems slightly different though, we were told about two of Henry the 8ths wives far more that died in the Tower of London and I don’t think the two boys were mentioned nor the gun powder plot but it makes sense they change the tour up every now again! Super interesting! Feels so cool to see you guys somewhere that I was yesterday 😊

You should absolutely visit NYC! I totally understand your reluctance because I felt the same way until I went there for work a few years ago and LOVED IT! I am a Southern girl through and through, but NYC was an amazing place to visit. I can't recommend it highly enough.

If you saw people walking the edge of the Themes, they may well be mud Lurkers, people who dig and find London history. There are many on KZbin that do this and find anything from Roman to Tudor to Victorian cast aways. It's a true river of history over the last thousand years plus, yesteryears rubbish to today's true treasure. Glad you loved London now explore the rest of the UK it gets much better.

YAY! Ireland: Dont spend too much time in Dublin - It is cool but more like a central european city than an Irish one. Get to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle ( Drive over Conors Pass!) And also check out Galway/Connemara

Really enjoyed your London videos. Great tips and pointers for visitors. Took me a few days to get to grips with the underground when I started using it. The river is spelt Thames but pronounced Tems and Big Ben is the largest bell at the top of the Elizabeth tower. Looking forward to your videos on the next visit.

As someone from the UK, I struggled to understand some of what the Yeoman was saying (some words not pronounced very clearly), so I think you did well to make sense of him!

So glad you had a great time in our wonderful capital. If you do get to come back in the future you should try and get a booking on the Ceremony of the Keys. It's the official locking of the Tower of London performed by the armed guard and Yeoman Warders every single night for the last 700 years. It's only done to about 20-30 tourists a night so you have to book around 6 months in advance, but it's free and absolutely worth doing, especially on the darker Spring/Autumn months where it's much more atmospheric.

The people on the foreshore of the Thames were probably mudlarkers, they all sorts of things in the mud from really old clay pipes to old bottles plus coins and all sorts of amazingly interesting stuff. You can find them on KZbin.

Great interesting and entertaining video. Just to add, in case you didn't know, that a Royal Air Force pilot, Alan Pollock, on the 5th April 1968 flew a jet fighter between the upper and lower spans of Tower bridge. This was totally unauthorised and it was his way of protesting against the government of the time and their actions on defense cuts and other things.

Another great blog, I had my 21st birthday party on the Thames (Tems not Tames 😁) something I will never forget. I live in Spain but am going back to London end October, going to take my wife to the Tower of London as she hasn't been. Love your love for London....
