Big Ben needs little introduction. The famous bell is a cultural icon around the world and these popular tours offer visitors the chance to see (and hear) how Big Ben works, up close.

This fully guided tour takes you up the narrow 334-step spiral stairwell of the Elizabeth Tower to the Belfry where Big Ben hangs. As you ascend, you will stop in the exhibition spaces, which use AV technology to bring to life the story of Big Ben and The Elizabeth Tower.

You will see the inner workings of the clock mechanism, stand next to the world-famous Big Ben bell as it strikes the hour, and step behind the dials each spanning 6.9m in diameter.

Visitors must be comfortable climbing 334 steps and experiencing high noise levels from the clock mechanism and bells - ear defenders will be provided.

After your tour you can also explore medieval Westminster Hall, and enjoy a refreshment at the Jubilee Café. Next door is the Jubilee Shop which sells official Big Ben merchandise.

Meeting place is Cromwell Green Visitor Entrance of Houses of Parliament.

Arrive at 10:15am for a 10:45am tour start time. Your visit will last 1 hour and 45 minutes.  Event Leader:  Kristyn Harrell,  WhatsApp +1-312-504-8516
