Great walking tour

3.00We had an informative walking tour around the Royal neighbourhood surrounding Buckingham Palace. Our tour guide, Danny, was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed his history talks and swift and efficient in getting us from each busy spot. We were really disappointed though, about the way this tour was advertised. We were told we would have entry to Buckingham Palace and the Mews was a choice we made between that and the State rooms. Unfortunately we didn’t have access to Buckingham Palace so we were very disappointed. Our guide also left us before entering the Mews which we thought we would have the guide for the whole tour but this was okay because we were given a Multimedia pack which was very informative.
This tour was great,...

5.00This tour was great, awesome to see all the history inside Westminster abbey buckingham palace, and houses around and learn about history of England. It is a quite a bit of walking but very doable. We saw the stores around the palace and one of the gardens. We had a food stop midway. The tour guide was awesome too.
Wonderful experience!

5.00Our guide, Pete was fantastic! He was very passionate about the “Royals” and informed about British history! We had an “older” group and he was sensitive to not rush us through. The state rooms was a self guided tour and We had plenty of time to see all that we wanted. At the end of the tour we had a lovely lunch in the garden!

5.00Peter was a fascinating tour guide. He had so much knowledge and interesting stories to share with us. The walking was not difficult. He was with us for all of the outside tour and then left us once we were safely entered to the palace. There we received our headsets and concluded with an audio tour.

1.00The tour operator never showed up. We tried calling the tour company and they were very little help. It also cost us almost an hour on the phone at our expense.
