The Tower is not generally open to the public but healthy residents of Britain can apply to go inside and climb the 334 steps to the clock through contacting their local MP.
There are 3 tours daily and 4 during summer months. They are usually fully booked at least 6 months in advance so early booking is essential. At present there is no charge for entry to the tower, but this could change in due course.

∙ 12y agoBig Ben is only open to the public by special invitation.
Apart from maintenance personnel and officials Big Ben is closed to all. However if you are interested in visiting you will need to be on the voting register in your home town as you will only get permission through your local MP. They will arrange the visit and possibly be there or have the guide meet you there at that time. At this time there is no fee to pay. Beware as you will not be allowed if you are unfit to climb the many steps to the works platform.
