Royal London Tour with Changing of the Guard

Tower of London Eines der berühmtesten Gebäude der Welt, der  Tower of London , wurde  im 11.  Jahrhundert erbaut –  vor  nahezu 1000 Jahren, und war Zeuge zahlloser bedeutender Ereignisse in der Entwicklung  zu Großbritanniens heutiger demokratischer Monarchie. Während Ihrer Tour durch den Tower of London werden Sie die prächtigen Yeoman Warders oder 'Beefeaters'  treffen, die gekleidet sind wie zu Zeiten der Tudors, hören Sie die Legende  der Raben  und gruselige Geschichten  aus  der langen Geschichte des Towers. Sehen Sie den berüchtigten  Bloody Tower  wo die Prinzen ermordet wurden, Beauchamp Tower  wo Besucher  eingeritzte Inschriften der ehemaligen Gefangenen  lesen können und Traitors  Gate wo die Köpfe der Glücklosen  aufgespießt wurden , die die Gefangenschaft nicht überlebten - und vieles mehr. Wir verkaufen  günstiger als der Ticketpreis am Eingang, was Ihnen  Eintritt  zu allen Towers und Attraktionen gestattet, als auch  zu den besonderen Geschenkeshops, dem  historischen  New Armouries Restaurant, Tower Cafe und Kiosk.  Ihr Tower Ticket beinhaltet auch den Eintritt zu den Kronjuwelen. Fit for a King Exhibition: Sehen Sie diese überwältigende  Ausstellung, die fünfhundert Jahre spektakulärer Königsrüstungen umfasst. Sie bietet  wunderbare  Einblicke  in die Persönlichkeiten,  Stärke und physische Größe Englischer  Könige.  Die Kunst der königlichen Waffenmeister  war die Kombination vom praktischem Schutz  für Turniere und Kämpfe mit einem atemberaubenden Design und Dekor, alle „Fit for a King“.  Vertiefen Sie sich in einen Schatz der Vergangenheit  im dramatischen  White Tower und entdecken Sie eine erstaunliche Vielfalt an ungewöhnlichen Dingen, darunter diamantenbesetzte Waffen und die erlesensten  Bewaffnungen und Rüstungen aus aller Welt. Der Eintritt zu dieser spektakulären neuen Ausstellung im White Tower ist in Ihrem Standard Ticket für den Tower of London enthalten. Alle Innengebäude schließen 30 Minuten nach dem letzten Einlass. Der Tower schließt eine Stunde nach dem letzten Einlass. Wir empfehlen Ihnen 2-3 Stunden für Ihren Besuch im Tower einzuplanen. Der Tower ist vom 24.-26. Dezember und am 1. Januar geschlossen.   Tower Bridge Ausstellung ​Dieser Voucher ist ausschließlich für den Eintritt zur Tower Bridge Ausstellung am gewählten Besuchstag gültig.   Der neue und spektakuläre Glasboden über den oberen Fußweg der  Brücke  ist  die bedeutendste  Entwicklung  der Attraktion seit der Eröffnung 1982. Beginnend vom Westlichen Fußüberweg aus, eröffnet der Glasboden den Besuchern  heute bisher unerreichte Aussichten auf das Londoner Leben,  42 Meter  hoch über der Themse.  Blicken Sie herab auf das Strassen- und Fußgängergewirr  über der Brücke,  während Flussschiffe darunter entlang gleiten – und planen Sie Ihren Besuch vorab für das wahrhaft magische Erlebnis der Klappbrücke,  die unter Ihren Füßen hochgezogen wird.  Der Glasfußweg ist elf  Meter lang und 1,80 Meter breit und umfasst sechs Böden, die einzeln  530 kg wiegen.  Sie bestehen aus fünf dicken Platten und können das vergleichbare Gewicht eines Elefanten und von zwei Taxis tragen! Die Installation wurde von einem  20-köpfigen Team innerhalb von sechs Wochen konstruiert.  Die Fußwege zeigen  tolle  Panoramablicke auf  London. Jede der 20 Brücken, die in unserer beliebten und erneuerten  Darstellung ‘New Great Bridges of the World' präsentiert wird,  zeigt eine atemberaubende  Meisterleistung der Technik. Nachdem Sie durch Animationen und Anzeigen in den Towers etwas über die Geschichte der Brücke lernen, gehen Sie weiter zu den Viktorianischen Maschinenräumen mit den wunderschön erhaltenen Dampfmaschinen, die einst genutzt wurden um die Brückenhebung zu ermöglichen. Vor über 100 Jahren bauten die Viktorianer eine Brücke die zu einer der berühmtesten Attraktionen Londons wurde. Obere Fußgängerwege wurden gebaut damit  Menschen die Themse überqueren können während die Brücke hochgezogen wird  und große Schiffe an der Tower Bridge vorbeifahren  können. Heute dienen diese Fußwege als Aussichtsgalerie, die den Besuchern die spektakulärsten Blicke auf eine sich stets wandelnde Londoner Skyline schenkt. Fußgängerwege & Ausstellung: Besucher betreten die Tower Bridge Ausstellung über den North Tower. Sie werden dann mit dem Aufzug auf die Spitze des Towers gebracht (47 Meter über der Themse) wo sie die einzigartige Gelegenheit haben, das Stahlgerüst der Brücke von innen zu sehen. Ein kleiner Film erklärt die Geschichte und Herkunft der Brücke und es besteht die Möglichkeit,  von beiden überdachten Fußwegen aus die spektakulären Ausblicke zu bewundern. Auf dem östlichen Übergang gibt es eine fantastische Sicht  auf die Docklands und vom westlichen Übergang können Sie das neue  GLA Gebäude sehen, den Tower of London, St Paul’s, die Stadt, das Becken von London und Big Ben und das London Eye in  der Entfernung. Interaktive Computerstände und grafische Tafeln erklären den Besuchern die Bedeutung der Aussichten und geben mehr Informationen  zur Geschichte und  zum Bau der Brücke. Das interaktive Material und die Grafiktafeln sind in sieben Sprachen verfasst und es ist auch für die Videoshow ein Audioaufhänger für Schwerhörige vorhanden.  Im South Tower gibt es einen  weiteren Film  zu sehen, vor dem Abstieg  für einen kleinen Spaziergang  zum historischen Maschinenraum,  inbegriffen in Ihrem Ticketpreis. Viktorianische Maschinenräume: Sie geben  faszinierende Einblicke in das Konstruktionswesen des späten 19. Jahrhunderts.   Die großen und schön erhaltenen, kohlenbetriebenen Maschinen wurden  zur Fertigstellung der Tower Bridge 1894 installiert, und genutzt um bis 1976 Tausende der Klappbrückenhebungen  zu ermöglichen .  Obwohl die Hebevorrichtungen heute mit Elektrizität funktionieren, sind  die originalen Dampfmaschinen immer noch  vorhanden. Die Maschinenräume geben  Besuchern die Möglichkeit mit Modellen zu experimentieren, die die Technologie der Brücke demonstrieren. Es gibt auch erstaunliche Fotografien der  Tower Bridge seit Ihres Bestehens – darunter ein  aufschlussreiches Bild  der schweren Stahlstruktur der Brücke,  als die Steinverkleidung darüber montiert  wurde.

Big Bus Paris - 1 Day Tour   NEW :
Half covered Open-top bus to enjoy Paris even if it is raining  FREE Paris Map FREE Headsets FREE Ponchos FREE Reward Voucher Booklet  Quai Branly Museum - Combined Ticket The opening of the musée du quai Branly, in June 2006, helped legiti­ mize long misunderstood cultures and finally made them accessible to a wider public. 300,000 works and objects from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas make up the collection of the museum, whose mission is to conserve, document and enrich.  As a resource of messages and potential connections between world cultures, the collection is a point of departure from which the museum has shaped its identity: that of a museum for the 21st Century with inno­vative architecture and museography, all in the heart of a major interna­tional capital. The musée du quai Branly is a museum that does not claim to teach from a position of authority; rather, it sets out to create bridges between cultures, while encouraging curiosity and attracting visitors from diffe­rent backgrounds with varied interests. Within the museum, diverse skills and perspectives create the ideal context for the collection, giving rise to cultural, artistic and scientific proposals, from different levels of interpretation and approaches, be it via temporary exhibitions, performing arts, lectures or conferences. The quality and renewal of this myriad of offerings depend upon the public making the museum their own and upon their desire to keep coming back. The dynamics of mediation between visitors and the collec­ tions, taking into account the vision of a given society at a given moment, opens up the dialogue to the key issues of our day: globalisation, our relationship towards “otherness” and the natural world.  NOTE : The combined ticket include tickets for the permanent collection and the temporary exhibition
