Your Experience

Your experience

See London’s most iconic royal and political landmarks on a guided walking tour, with commentary from a licensed guide in English, French, Spanish or German.

Getting started

Meet your guide just outside The Ritz Hotel, beside the two red telephone boxes near Green Park Underground Station. After a short introduction, your group sets off on foot through central London. As you walk, your guide shares stories and context about the landmarks you’re about to see and their lasting significance.

What to expect

This experience includes exterior views of Buckingham Palace and Big Ben, as well as interior access to Westminster Abbey with an included entry ticket.

Features:

  • Westminster Abbey: Explore the interior of Westminster Abbey at your own pace with a multilingual audio guide. This 1,000-year-old Gothic church has hosted every British coronation since 1066 and is the burial site of historical figures like Isaac Newton and Charles Dickens.

  • Coronation Chair & Poets’ Corner: Inside the Abbey, see the 700-year-old Coronation Chair used in every crowning since 1308 and visit Poets’ Corner, where literary legends are honoured and buried.

  • Big Ben & Houses of Parliament: Get up-close views of London’s most recognisable clock tower and the neighbouring Houses of Parliament, the heart of British political life.

  • Buckingham Palace: View the official residence of the monarch from the outside. On select days and only on the 10am tour, you may also witness the Changing of the Guard ceremony.

  • Extras: Upgrade your experience with optional extras like fast-track Abbey entry, guided tours, or small-group and headset add-ons.
