Changing the Guard Walking Tour
This London walking tour offers the best position possible to see the extraordinary Changing the Guard ceremony while avoiding the crowds at the gates of Buckingham Palace. Rather than standing still for hours, see various stages of the ceremony, including the inspection, Old Guard, New Guard, Palaces, and even march alongside the Guards and Ceremonial Bands!
The tour guides have the experience, knowledge, and humour to make sure guests leave with an enviable set of pictures, an insight into what is going on, an anecdote or two, and most importantly, a memory which will last forever.
This tour is fast paced with plenty of action, excitement, and fun. In order to stay ahead of the crowds, the group does have to move quickly at times – at one point they will even be marching alongside the band! There will be at least one flight of steps so unfortunately it is the only one of our tours which is not suitable for people with walking difficulties.
Note: Please bring comfortable shoes and a bottle of water. This tour is super popular, and allow for only a limited number of people per group, up to 25. It can often sell out days or weeks in advance, so book early to avoid disappointment!
Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours
