4-hour: Skip-the-line Westminster Abbey & City Highlights Tour:
Book a 4-hour walking tour of London with Skip-the-Line Tickets to Westminster Abbey and feel history come alive through captivating storytelling. While many tours skip a guided tour inside the Abbey, our Licensed Guide will walk you through its soaring Gothic architecture, old cloisters and hidden chapels, while sharing unforgettable tales of monarchs and monumental events that took place here over the centuries. Admire the famous Coronation Chair, royal tombs, Scientists monuments, Poet's corner and so much more. No long queues, no stress—just smooth access to one of London’s most iconic landmarks!

From there, continue on a royal walk through Central London and see the iconic Big Ben overlooking the Houses of Parliament, the gilded gates of Buckingham Palace in St James Park, and other highlights of the City of Westminster. If you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the Changing of the Guard ceremony (only on selected mornings, subject to schedule). We have many tricks up our sleeves, whatever you're interested in historical facts or urban legends. We want you to experience a royal fantasy, so for every tour we hand-select Expert Local Guides who are master storytellers and have insights beyond the guidebook. We hear that even London-born city explorers praise this Westminster Abbey tour for shining light on the capital’s unique gems that often get overlooked in the daily hustle and bustle. You don't have to book a private tour to enjoy a premium experience and get your questions answered, as we want to hear your story too!

3-hour: Abbey Free Organ Recital or Evensong + City Highlights Tour:

At the end of your walking tour of the City, you'll have the option to join an unforgettable organ recital (Sundays only), evensong or evening mass at Westminster Abbey on your own, without the guide.
