Thank you

Whenever I see the Tower of London (the" white" one), I think of 500 years of dramatic history right there in that beautiful structure. My eye always goes right to it. How great to have kept it preserved for history.
It's a one of a kind for sure!
Sinead could tour a car park and I’d watch the best tour guide on YT
🤣🤣🤣 this is brilliant
Sinead
lived in london my whole life and never knew you can see tower bridge like this, this is why i watch your tours, im always seeing & learning new things
I miss London it's a beautiful City Truly Beautiful. I love the tours 😁
@790 Ln Same here, had no idea.
We love helping people discover new things in their own city :)
This is the upmost compliment from a Londoner
Thank you
Sinéad
Sinead, you are a wonder! There’s no way I would even step onto that glass floor! Thank you for “taking the bullet” for me!

Thank you for letting me see something I could never imagine! I love touring London with you!
We are glad to have you with us, Jeanne!
I simply adore your reports, to me - the best ones about London. Thank you 🌸
What a great tour. Thank you for sharing with us. I’ve been to London 5 times and have yet toured the bridge. I’m coming back for my 6th trip in November of 2023, and this time my oldest nephew will be with me - and he is very engineering minded. I know he and I will love the tour. Looks to be well-worth the £10.60. I love your work, it’s like walking around with a good friend.
Thanks so much for your lovely words, Darrell! We hope to see you in November :)
Oh my! I feel for you, I'm already getting sweaty hands by looking the video.
Well done, Sandra! :)
Very brave walking the glass walkway x
Thank you Sinead! You did so well walking on the glass!
Bless you always and ever so gracious
Sinéad

@@ToursbyFootLondon I love your accent and your name but even though I'm not normally scared of 137 ft height I would be shaking so hard doing that my biggest height fear is glass where I can see down lol

I have watched several of our tour videos and I just love the professional way you deliver facts. Some folks just post and say "Wow" all the way through their video. Your information is much more helpful. Visiting London for the first time in a couple weeks.

Delighted you enjoyed it guys
Sinead
I did that walk over the glass floor last year! The first time I speed walked down the edge without looking! Did it again a bit slower and down the middle with the briefest look down! It was terrifying but was so proud of myself for doing it!
Well done, Sandra! :)
We’ll done Sandra
I certainly felt like I had achieved something I bet you felt the same
Sinead
Is it for free to walk through the glass floor
Sinead Queen of heights
That I can assure you will never stick lol
Sinead
Thank you from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 for taking us armchair travelers along with you on your walks I've never seen the tower bridge before I enjoyed the views from there keep up the good work 👍🇬🇧
Thanks for watching us from Toronto Jim, and thank you for subscribing! If you know of anyone else who might also enjoy these videos, please share us with them. We would really appreciate that! Thank you.
This one Jim I’m delighted you enjoyed
Could have watched this one from an armchair myself more comfortably 😂
Sinéad
Courage is feeling the fear of crossing the bridge and doing it anyway. well done 👊🏼
Well said!
Hi folks. Many moons ago I had the privilege of a tour around Tower Bridge, including going down into one of the big pits under each tower which one of the two the water filled counterweights of the bascules descended into as the bascules were raised. Absolutely amazing sight. The pits are below the river level of course and are waterproofed with a very thick layer of pitch incorporated into the walls,
This was a nice walking tour. Enjoyed!
Glad you enjoyed this all the way in Georgia!
Thank you lovely
Delighted you enjoyed it
Sinéad
one more for my Sinead collection. Well done. I am glad that you went in February. So much walking & steps. July might be hot & crowded. I never heard about the double decker bus jumping the span. He was heroic for sure. We don't hear about those things in the States. You did yourself proud walking across that glass flooring. Faith will get you thru anything. I have vertigo & somethings I can't do, but that I would have enjoyed, that glass floor & all. How did we ever live without cell phones? Cameras just didn't have the clarity we have now. You are so fortunate to live in a city with so much wonder & beauty. Thanks for taking us along! Cheers!
Glad you liked this one - we love reading your thoughtful reviews! :)

Shirley, love taking you all with me and will continue to do so as long as you all want me too
Sinéad
I couldn’t walk over that glass - you are very brave!
It took a bit of coaxing of oneself 😂
Sinéad
Great tour.
Thanks
I love your channel, Sinead.
I'm kicking myself. I visited London with my daughter (r.i.p.) in July 2016 for her 14th birthday and on our first evening we did a Jack the Ripper tour. I knew we were close to the Tower Bridge, but didn't realise how close. We didn't get to visit it.
Thanks again. My 10 year old son is insistent that he gets to see London soon. I'm gonna make a point of seeing the Tower Bridge.
Donna
Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of your little girl
I’m truly sorry for the late response , so humbled that hopefully we can provide some distraction
Thank you sincerely for your comment , I’m truly honoured by the time you took to respond and your selflessness and courage to share your story
May her gentle soul rest in paradise
I will most certainly keep you in my prayers
Sinéad
@@Sineadlondontourguide Aww Sinead 💖, from one Irish woman to another, thankyou. You are an amazing storyteller....could listen to you all day.
You did a great one on Brompton Cemetery ..that was our last pitstop before heading back to Belfast in 2016.. She was raging 😊.. she wasn't enthralled with old cemeteries like her mummy is. Keep up the good work Sinead and team.
I love it! Sinead can't do that, but she did it! Thanks! This virtual tour is the only way I could have walked over the glass walkway.
Glad you liked this one, Jared :)
I’m your Guinea pig Jared lol
Sinead
Loved this tour, thanks!
Glad you liked this one, Chris!
Oh I loved that Sinead :) I have quite a bit of interest in steam power due to the fact my ancestors used to make steam locomotives at the GWR works in Swindon.
Oh wow! Glad we got to share this with you :)
Thank you for this experience. Keep up the great work.
Just try to stop us ;)
I didnt even know u could walk 'thru' Tower Bridge 😵 So gonna go! I think I will go jelly legged walking across the glass floor 😶😅
Oh Sinead brave lass lol Thankyou Luv take care, stay safe blessings Ontario Canada 🐝🇨🇦
Thanks for the continued support, Beverley! We are starting another channel you might be interested in, with cities from all over the world: ruclips.net/channel/UCDqyEmKOSkMbSYuLI3XTSBQvideos

I’d be slow to do it again but the museum side of the attraction was amazing
Sinéad
well done Sinead :)
Good job facing your fear of heights, Sinead! Next time it will be easier. Great tour as always, thank you!
Not quite sure there will be a next time Wendi but delighted I did it once x

Thank you as always Donna x
Sinéad
I enjoyed your tour very much! Thanks!
Thank you sincerely Janice
It’s very much appreciated
Sinead
I'm with you Sinead. I'm not a big fan of heights either. I would probably be walking along the side of the glass walkway and avoid the glass completely.
It was an experience God bless you for sharing.

Oh Sinead, you (and your tours) are absolutely delightful! I’m pretty sure I’ll never get to London in person, thank you so much for showing me these lovely places. 😍
Thanks for watching, Cherry! If you know of anyone else who might also enjoy these videos, please share us with them. We would really appreciate that! Thank you.
Great job! It does look scary but Blake and I will try it since you did it 😊
You can do it!
Fantastic Cinnamon we should find a few more things to challenge us on our tour
Looking forward to meeting you ladies

Sinead thank you for an interesting walk! I live in London, but never knew this existed, surely going to experience it! Blessings x

Nice walk! I was recently in London and walked over the Tower Bridge, but last time I walked on the upper deck was in 1999, and the glass on the floor wasn't there then!
Congratulations!!! You faced your fear. 👏👏 You walked across that glass walk-way. 😊😊 Excellent tour, as always.👍👌
I too will be terrified when I walk over the glass floor! I experienced this in Paris a few years ago at Galleria Lafayette.
We hope to show you around London when you get here, Lynn! You can browse our tour selection here www.freetoursbyfoot.com/london-tours/. Bookmark us :)

Well done girl that was great. What a spectacular view. When you come to Australia you will have to do the edge experience in the eureka building in Melbourne. It fun.
Loving the tower walk. Thanks again
Glad you liked this one, Sandy!
I would love a Melbourne trip
I may avoid the attractions involving heights though 😂
Sinéad
Well done Sinead! That does look quite scary. Is it weird that seeing the water on either side scared me more than the road? 😁😄Thanks for another great tour.
I think it’s even weirder that I’m less nervous over water
Bizarre how our body reacts to fear and why
Sinéad
@@Sineadlondontourguide ONE day when I do get to London I will most definitely be booking you for a private tour Sinead. Love your tours and what you do and keep going please!!! Sending you much love from South Africa!

Nice video
I surprised my son with tickets for his 10th birthday! He is obsessed with Tower Bridge! I stomped and jumped all the way across the glass floor and gave this poor lady a heart attack! It was a great experience and it was so interesting! The engineering feat is incredible and so fascinating! Highly recommend!
Thanks again for watching, Namara! If you know of anyone else who might also enjoy these videos, please share us with them. We would really appreciate that! Thank you.
I went to a Halloween party in the bridge many moons ago. One side of the walkway was themed as heaven with the other themed as hell. Great night in a specular location.
That sounds absolutely epic
Beyond jealous xx
Amazing tour Sinead!!! So .much details on construction of London tower that fascinated me. You are brave, I stayed terrified watching the effort you made to show us the glass floorway😱. Thanks you so much for the video 😃
Thanks for the continued support, Benedito!
As always Benedito my absolute pleasure
Delighted you enjoyed it

Thanks for the support, James!
WOW your awesome I'd be petrified well done
Bless you Zona thank you
Sinéad
Magnificent
Thanks!
Sinead, I laughed too about that banana freighter hitting the bridge for the third time in 10 years. The various captains of that banana freighter must have been so impressed with the Tower Bridge that they wanted to leave their marks on it! hahaha The Harbour Master probably started calling on a Maritime pilot to take over captaining any banana ships coming or leaving London. Thanks for this fantastic tour and for walking across that scary glass floor of the Tower Bridge.
Marvelous job Sinead, came through like a true pro! Big smile over here in the states. 😀
Glad you liked this one, Laurie!
Oh bless you Laurie
My fear of heights seems to be getting worse it’s bizarre
Sinéad
@@Sineadlondontourguide I know what you mean. With me it seems to be claustrophobia but at least I know why... years ago I worked at the Ryman Auditorium and was attacked by some idiotic girls trying to reach the stage for R. Kelly. I still have problems with my knee to this day. Terrified me and I can't stand to be in large crowds anymore cause it feels like they're closing in on me again.
@@lauriehays2876 Omg Laurie sounds awful
The crush and the idea of being in proximity to R Kelly lol
At least you didn’t have to listen to him x

Glad you liked this one!
It’s an amazing attraction thoroughly enjoyed it

that's an #amazing amount of info you provide on your site WOW! Thanks for the tips TO SAVE $!
We are happy to share it all with you, Mary!
These tours are great. I hope you will continue with these videos, when everything is back to normal.
I hate heights, but I would be alright with that walkway because I wouldn’t be able to jump. I hate anywhere where it is possible to jump off!!
Thanks for your continued support of the channel, John! We're not stopping any time soon :)
