About

A guided ascent of the Elizabeth Tower to the belfry, clock mechanism and Great Bell, with a look behind the clock dials.

The tour climbs 334 steps through the Elizabeth Tower, with exhibition stops about the tower and its conservation before reaching Big Ben’s belfry. Visitors can see the clock mechanism and stand behind the dials; the ticket also permits a visit to medieval Westminster Hall. The route is strenuous, includes narrow spaces and high noise, and is not step-free.
