Tower of London Sign Language Tours

The Tower of London is running a programme of tours this year where British Sign Langauge interpreters will accompany the Tower’s famous Yeoman Warders, known as Beefeaters, as they guide visitors around.

The interpreters will pass on what the Beefeater is saying to the deaf and hearing impaired on during the Ceremony of the Keys and the regular Yeoman Warder guided tour. Sign language tours are included in the general admission price but because they’re happening on set dates they need to be pre-booked.

Here are the dates of the two tours.
