The abbey visit is great but keep on mind that the walk to the other spots are far for a 75 year old.

We were in London during a busy week (school spring break in April) so there was a lot of tourists there and one nice thing was with the 9a tour time we were among the first inside. our guide was savvy about directing us around and proving a lot of info even as we were walking since she had a mic and we were all given headsets. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable. I wouldn’t suggest this tour for anyone w kids <7-8 unless they’re really into history bc it is a lot of listening. We did not technically see the changing of the guard, which was a little disappointing bc i booked the tour thinking it would guarantee that. Again it was super busy in London and there were MASSES of people outside the palace so I understood why that was, but it was still disappointing. Our guide stopped us on the road leading to the palace to watch the guards and band walking to and then from the palace so that was neat, we just didn’t go right up to the gates til we were on our own after.

Jane, our tour guide, gave us a wonderful tour of Westminster, all of the involved history, and an incredible vantage point to see the changing of the guards and the horse guards – – and we even got to see Seamus, their mascot!

I have mixed emotions about this tour. Our guide was great. However I felt in the description we were a bit misled. We didn’t go very close to Big Ben at all. It was just mentioned while walking to the Abbey. We also were under the impression that we would be a lot closer to “The Changing of the Guards” but our guide had us so terribly far away we really couldn’t see much of it. We were way too busy battling the crowd that was knocking us over in our poor location.

The tour was exceptional. Catherine, the guide, made it even better. She was very thorough, knowledgeable and entertaining. The use of audio devices is most in this kind of tours.
