The Experience
What your day looks like
This tour is the perfect way to discover the majestic British pomp and ceremony of the Changing of the Guard, without the stress of navigating huge crowds. With groups no larger than 6, our semi-private tour takes you on a journey through historic Westminster (the center of British politics) before heading to Buckingham Palace, the royal residence of His Majesty the King. It’s easy to make the same mistake that many excited visitors do. Eager to be the first there, many understandably head straight to the front of the Palace gates. Unfortunately, this often results in hundreds of people cramped together, unable to see anything, and worst of all, in the wrong place to witness the beginning and climax of this remarkable parade. With the help of your expert guide, your small group of under 6 will be led past the crowds to ensure you’re in the right place at the right time to witness every part of the military spectacle, ensuring you don’t miss a thing. Armed with knowledge not only of the city’s history but also of the fascinating rituals and quirky traditions surrounding the royal pageantry, you can calmly enjoy this world-famous event in all its splendor.

OMG! I cannot express how amazing our tour and tour guide, Luke, were! Luke was so knowledgeable and patient. We had just come from the airport and still had our luggage, Luke and his partner helped us stash our luggage and join them during the tour. We had a great spot for the march of the changing of the guard and took good pictures of us at various spots. It was a great way to start our trip to London. We learned so much, we saw so much. I'm so glad we found this tour! We are still talking about it and so happy to have had the opportunity to go on the tour.
