What you can expect

This is the London walking tour which will ensure you are in the best position possible to see the extraordinary Changing the Guard ceremony while avoiding the crowds at the gates of Buckingham Palace.

Rather than standing still for hours, we see various stages of the ceremony, including the Old Guard, New Guard, Palaces, and even march alongside the Guards and Ceremonial Bands!

We start at the iconic Piccadilly Circus, process along the ceremonial route of the Mall, via St James Palace, Wellington Barracks, Clarence House and of course Buckingham Palace. At each step our focus will be on the guards, as your expert guide brings the whole ceremony to life through tales of royal intrigue and military history.

Our group size is capped at 20 to ensure maximum enjoyment.

Please note this tour requires a good level of mobility as we will be marching alongside the guards, and there is at least one set of steps to navigate.

We do not enter Buckingham Palace on this tour.
