5.00We had a great tour. They ended up rescheduling the changing of the guard, but our tour guide Robin took us on an excellent tour that more than made up for missing out on that part of the experience. I highly recommend Robin and this tour!
Truly REMARKABLE guide Robin and an unforgettable morning!!

5.00Robin brings his unique experience (from his former lives) and his English teacher knowledge in an interesting FUN tour. A fortuitous no-show made our tour experience seem more like a large family of 7. Robin knew THE BEST spots to go for the pictures of the band, the outgoing guards and the grenadier guards. Also learned quite a bit about lampposts and other statutes in the adjacent areas. Do NOT hesitate to book this tour and if your guide happens to be Robin, you are in for a REAL TREAT!!!!
Guided tour is the way to go! Robin is a great guide

5.00Robin was our guide on this walking tour, I had made an error when I read the directions and ended up at the wrong location. Robin so kindly guided me to the correct spot and the tour began. So much fun and very informative. We learned a lot of fun history about the surrounding area and information about the change of the guard ceremony (and the history of the guard!) touring with Robin felt like a walk with an old friend. We got prime views of the guard and the band and were able to watch them play. All in all, great tour, great guide and I definitely recommend enjoying this with a guide for all the extras!
Excellent Tour!

5.00One of the most thorough and entertaining guides we gave ever had! He kept us all engaged- from grandmother down to children. There were a lot of moving pieces to this tour, and he handled them each well. Thank you, Robin!
