Getting there

From Tower Hill, walk toward the bridge’s north end. The south end also connects with the riverside walk from London Bridge. Follow the exhibition signs if you are going inside.

Admission

The street-level crossing is free. The high-level walkways and Engine Rooms are part of a separate ticketed visit. Check your entry slot and starting entrance.

What to see

Walk both sides of the river for different views of the bridge. An exhibition visit is the way to see the high-level walkways.

Plan your visit

The public crossing and the exhibition are different parts of the visit. Allow time for the riverside approach whichever you choose.

Allow 60–90 minutes for the exhibition. Allow extra time if a bridge lift interrupts your riverside route, and compare the view from both banks.
