Description

Get a glimpse of the Royal history of England, and see 5 iconic London palaces on this 2-hour walking tour.

Have a nice walk in central London (Westminster) with your professional and experienced local guide. Begin at Green Park station, and head to Pall Mall while hearing the stories about the Spencer house and Lancaster house. Continue to Clarence house which is still the home of King Charles III.

See Buckingham Palace, the official London residence and principal workplace of the British monarch. Then the Royal Guards come for the ceremony, and you will see (and hear!) them several times during the tour.

Slow down a little in St. James's Park - home to the famous swans and pelicans. Go on to St. James's Palace, where several members of the Royal family still keep apartments.

Throughout the tour, your guide will show you the Royal family tree and explain how the monarchy works in Great Britain. You will also have a chance to delve into some of the royal scandals and speculate on the most popular members of the Royal family.
