We had the 10 am tour with James. It was my family, including two young adult daughters. I would greatly recommend this tour as it gives nice context around the castle and it's history. Tour guides are not allowed to lead tours into the interior buildings and other designated areas, so the tour takes you from the outside of the castle gates to the interior 'courtyard' spaces. After the tour, you are able to visit inside the buildings at your own pace to see the crown jewels, war memorial, prison, St. Margaret's Chapel, weapons displays, etc. James did a wonderful job of explaining the different buildings, the history of some of the different castle attacks, as well as the historical significance of the castle and figures attached to its history. I appreciate that James was funny, engaging and tried to focus on historical accuracy. I advise going for the earliest tour if possible as it seemed to get much more crowded as the afternoon went on.
Happy that we booked this...
