This tour was amazing. Our guide Adrian was an encyclopedia of knowledge, very well spoken, eloquent and entertaining too! The Changing of the Guard was a little underwhelming, so you can skip that if you want, but definitely book Westminster Abbey and see if you can get Adrian. Overall it was a great experience and a highlight of my vacation in London.

Thank you Nicholas for your tour yesterday! We were the 1st group to enter Westminster Abbey and it was very special and amazing. Nicholas kept us entertained with his stories and delivery of the history of the Abbey. We also got to see King Charles as he was heading to Buckingham Palace to meet the old and new PM's! What an awesome tour!!!
Great tour with fabulous guide!

Obviously the abbey is beautiful, however our guide Nicholas made it exceptional! He got us in as the first group which meant our picture were amazing. He was knowledgeable and entertaining. When the changing of the guard was canceled due to the election he made the tour work by taking us to Clarence house right as the King pulled out. Then continued to Buckingham palace as the Prine Minister went to resign. Truly a once in a lifetime event!!
Great tour of Westminster Abbey

Our group of 6 had a wonderful tour of Westminster Abbey with Susan. She was a great guide who really took the time to explain the rich history of the Abbey.
Buckingham Palace portion was a great little side feature.
Would highly recommend. Not too long. Not too short.

Cosette was an amazing tour guide. She took us through all of the beautiful sections of Westminster Abbey and knew exactly where to to go to see the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace. Great tour!
Adrian was an excellent guide!

Adrian’a knowledge of British history was impressive and his enjoyment of sharing it with us was contagious, making this a fun and engaging experience. Both I and my 14-year-old daughter really enjoyed this tour.

We booked this tour as it was sold as a "skip the line" tour. It also included seeing the Changing of the Guard. Neither of these happened. We waited in line for at least 30 minutes to get into the Abbey, and it was very, very crowded. Our group of 15 had a great guide, however, unless you were standing right next to her you could not hear what she was saying. Headsets would have been nice. After rushing to get to the Changing of the Guard, we were informed that they had cancelled it. No reason given, just "it happens". So overall, we would have been happier to have Not paid the $100 fee for skip the line, etc. and just taken our chances with the "commoners" line.

We enjoyed the tour. Unfortunately, the changing of the guardsman wasn't available during our tour. Our guide, Penny, was very knowledgeable and personable!
