Tower Bridge: Walkways, Engine Rooms & River Views

London’s most recognisable bridge mixes Victorian engineering with sweeping Thames views.

What to Do

• Glass Walkways: Look down on the bascules and river traffic.
• Engine Rooms: Beautifully restored steam engines that once lifted the bridge.
• South Bank Stroll: Sunset walks between Tower Bridge and the London Eye are pure skyline theatre.

Plan

Book a walkway ticket online; allow 60–90 minutes. For the classic photo, stand on the north bank by the Tower of London moat or on the south bank by Butler’s Wharf.
