This is the London you see on TV! Here you'll walk in the foot steps of the royal family, stroll along beautiful royal parks, see where our Monarchs are crowned, and learn about secret rooms underneath government buildings - and what exactly happened down there. You'll pass by the home of the Prime Minister, have a chance to see the King's swans, and visit the most important royal palace in the country (spoiler: it's NOT Buckingham).
You'll see the seats of the royal and governmental bodies that control the UK and learn their 1,000 year old history. You'll have a chance to inspect the King's guards, see the most famous palace in the world, take a photo of "Big Ben" ...and then learn why you aren't actually taking a photo of Big Ben.
Sometimes we even have an opportunity to wave to the King and, sometimes, he even waves back!
On days that it takes place, this tour also includes the world-famous Changing of the Guard - and we will take you to the best place to view it.
Your guide will begin your tour by positioning you to get perfect photographs of the most famous Royal Palace in the world, which has been home of the British Monarchy for nearly 200 years.

Although we cannot see the War Rooms, you will be walking on top of the most important war-time structures in the county as we make our way through the governmental centre of Whitehall. These purpose built rooms, underneath the treasury, are where Winston Churchill led the British forces during World War Two. Now open to the public as a Museum, this is one of our favourite places to recommend!
Here you'll stand in the shadow of one of the most famous churches in the entire world. Originally built over 1,000 years ago, Westminster Abbey is the resting place of numerous Kings, Queens and famous figures. This is where Royal Weddings take place, our Monarchs are crowned, and state funerals are held. The detailed exteriors are stunning to behold and we will make sure you get the best view.
Your guide will then take you to a "two-for-one" at the Palace of Westminster, which also holds the Houses of Parliament. This is the centre of the UK's legislature, the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
The building itself is largely Victorian but contains within it one of the most famous buildings in the country: Westminster Hall. From trials to coronation banquets, laying-in-state to executions, Westminster Hall has seen it all since it was first built back in 1097.
This almost needs no description... Your guide will put you in prime position to get the best photographs of Big Ben. Then you'll find out why you're not technically taking photos of Big Ben at all!
