Lots of walking but worth it!
Ann was great and provided tons of information. Lots of walking - more than I expected - but saw tons of interesting sights. Don’t count on seeing the changing of the guards - it seems it gets canceled without much notice fairly often. We did see some interesting parade prep instead.

Our guide, Rachel, was...
Our guide, Rachel, was knowledgeable. She shared important history of the Changing of the Guard, the buildings we were shown, and explained why the “old” and “new” guards do what they do. She had us situated in prime locations for viewing and we were easily able to take pictures and videos of the event.
