What you can expect

Combine two of London's bucket list attractions in one morning by joining our local expert on a guided tour of Westminster Abbey, followed by attending the famous Changing of the Guard ceremony at the square adjacent to Buckingham Palace!

Kickstart your day with skip-the-line entry to Westminster Abbey. Explore this imposing Gothic Cathedral and walk where many kings and queens have before you. Learn about the royal weddings that have taken place here, visit Charles Dickens' tomb in Poets' Corner, and immerse yourself in the extensive history of London.

After your visit, we'll head to Buckingham Palace, home to the Royals and the administrative headquarters of the British Monarchy. Marvel at the iconic palace balcony and learn about its current residents while awaiting the commencement of the Changing of the Guard ceremony.

The soldiers of the King's Guard are renowned for their iconic bearskin hats, striking tunics, and military precision. As the guards exchange places, enjoy the unfolding grandeur while your guide explains the historical significance of the ceremony.

Opt to extend your experience by choosing the full-day option. Take a break to enjoy some free time for lunch before meeting up with your guide again. Then, relax on a scenic river cruise before exploring the Tower of London and its Crown Jewels.

*Please note that the Changing of the Guard currently occurs on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays only. On alternative days, we will see the Changing of the Guard at the Horse Guards Parade instead.
