Buckingham Palace is only open to the public certain times of the year It would have been useful to know that!

Tour packed several stops into a relatively short time. MIke, our tour guide, provided a lot of information and could answer every question, no matter how random or relevant, with ease. Also provided interesting tidbits and was quite personable. The best tour guide I’ve had!

It was absolutely horrible. You totally lied about the tickets when I booked it. It said it was a Buckingham Palace tour the guard and London Tower when I got there was Buckingham Palace was closed. It doesn’t even open until July and it was a walking for a complete walking tour it never said that in the description it never said Buckingham Palace was closed. It said we would go into Buckingham Palace. It showed pictures of the inside of Buckingham Palace so you’d totally ripped me off. I’m calling my bank to dispute the charges. I spent $179 each on the tickets and I’m going to dispute the charge and if you don’t give me my money back, I will file it with my attorney fault advertisement, and you lie. I went back to my voucher nowhere does it say Buckingham Palace is closed nowhere so I expect my money back but I will be calling my bank to tell them what happened You totally fully misrepresented the package

Great tour with Pamela! There was only 6 of us in a group which made it even better. She did a great job!

It was not clear from my booking that we would not see the changing of the guards(we went on a Thursday.) Additionally the meeting place was unclear and there was much confusion on where to meet our guide. This is not the first time TripAdvisor’s meeting point was unclear. It was an enjoyable tour, guide was informative, but not worth what we paid.

Mike was a fabulous guide. It’s a very long tour with lots and lots of walking. So if you can’t go for four hours walking, this is not the tour for you.
