Amazing tour
Amazing! Our tour guide was very kind and explained each of the palaces and took us to secret spots without much tourists to watch the changing of the guard. The horse guards were on holiday so instead of ending the tour 30 mins early they took us to Trafalgar square instead which was very nice of them. Everything was timed perfectly and explained well.

Great tour
Kathleen was very knowledgeable and gave us reccomendations for seeing the changing of the guards, since that is something we wanted to experience in London. We were able to see alot of the city in just a few hours, I would recommend this tour to others.

Glad we did it
Church was great. River tour was a "check it off the list" item, good but not great. Crown Jewels was great, but everything else at that site was blah for me. You don't see the changing of the guard at the palace, only the guards leaving their barracks as they walk to the palace. Our guide was great, although a few people fat lost/left as the day went on.

Everything went smoothly
If you go on a Sunday, you do not see the changing of the guards, but you will see guards marching playing their instruments, and then you will see The horse inspection.

London highlights in 3 hours- Spot on!
Frances was a wonderful guide and got us the best spots on our tour especially the changing of the guard, their walk to Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey sharing historic facts and stories. We were a small group so it felt so private. It was a perfect 3 hours for first time in London!

This was such a great tour! Our guide, Rachel, made the experience so fun with her enthusiasm and the fun facts she shared. You can tell she truly loves her job. We recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the changing of the guards without the stress of navigating it on your own.

Alan is the BEST
ALAN did an amazing job on our tour! He was so fun and communicated all the history with enthusiasm to keep us engaged. He also brought a sense of whimsy and humor. We took us to the best stops and we got some amazing views of the changing of the guard from different areas!
