Westminster Abby was beautiful but so incredibly crowded. The tour guide was too long explaining things. Standing for LONG periods of time. Giving a little info & moving on would be better!! . There was a marathon so we did not see changing of the guards. This should have been disclosed when we booked!!! You know the marathon dates a year in advance!!

Very informative- lots of information about Westminster Abbey- a bit too much time there. Most in group would have preferred more time with horses or at Palace. Should not have name Big Ben in your name as we only learnt a few facts. No view inside or close. We’re about 5 people on tour who hadn’t read notes about physical abilities & towards end were miserable & rude to guide.
