Experience two of London’s most iconic royal highlights in one unforgettable visit, combining the Changing of the Guard with expert commentary and rare seasonal access inside Buckingham Palace.

Meet your guide at the Duke of York Column and head through London’s royal district towards the best available viewing point for the Changing of the Guard. Watch this world-famous tradition unfold while your guide brings the ceremony to life with stories about its history, uniforms, music and military pageantry.

After the ceremony, continue through St James’s Park towards Buckingham Palace, discovering more about the monarchy, palace life and the royal landmarks surrounding the area.

At Buckingham Palace, your guide will provide background information and practical instructions before your pre-booked entrance to the State Rooms. As live guiding is not permitted inside, you’ll continue independently using the official multimedia guide, available in multiple languages.

Explore the magnificent State Rooms at your own pace and admire grand ceremonial interiors, historic furnishings, fine porcelain, paintings, chandeliers and treasures from the Royal Collection during the Palace’s limited seasonal opening.

Die Tour war sehr informativ und der Guide hat ein sehr verständliches und einfaches Englisch gesprochen. Leider konnten wir aufgrund des schlechten Wetters den Wachwechsel nicht miterleben. Dennoch war es ein unvergessliches Erlebnis und ist auf jedenfall weiter zu empfehlen.
