Description
The Royal Westminster and Changing of the Guard (English) guided walking tour offers you the ability to get up close and personal with London’s most famous and impressive sights.
Beginning with Buckingham Palace, the most famous residence of the King, we will explore the iconic buildings, parks and monuments of Royal London.
Witness parades by the world-famous King's Guards before continuing along the corridor of power which includes Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and 10 Downing Street.
You'll be led by an expert in London’s political, royal, and cultural history, who knows the best places to witness the Changing of the Guard ceremony, allowing you the best views and photo opportunities away from the crowds.
Along the way, be entertained and enthralled by your tour guide’s in-depth knowledge, memorable anecdotes, and unique take on London's history, as you discover the Kings, Queens, rogues, and villains behind this incredible city, and witness iconic buildings and mesmerizing parades along the way.
Suitable for all ages and encompassing multiple different experiences in a single two-and-a-quarter-hour period, this Westminster and Changing of the Guard Walking Tour is the best way to experience Royal Westminster all in one day.
- The tour does not visit the inside of Westminster Abbey.
- The Changing of the Guard takes place on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, the tour will instead witness the Changing of the King's Horse Guards at the Horse Guards Parade
- The Changing of the Guard operates at the discretion of the British Army and can be changed or canceled without notice. This is beyond the control of the activity provider
- In case of bad weather, the Changing of the Guard ceremony may be canceled. On these days the tour will endeavor to watch "the wet change" of the footguards and horse guards
