Reviews
Highly recommended. I am travelling solo and i joined small group tour. Our tour guide is so funny with his humourous way to explain the stort of Buckingham Palace, guard palace and others.
An excellent tour guide and her experience allows us to have an excellent spot to take nice photos. Highly recommended for this tour.
Our guide is very knowledgeable and gave detailed description of the history and some current events. He knew all the spots for a good view for the guard changing and it was a very great experience!
We thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour led by our guide, Robert. I found him to be very knowledgeable and witty. This tour is a must to go if you’re travelling to London.
the tour guide was very knowledgeable in sites and history.
Coach was very nice and guidance was very clear.
IT IS COMPLETELY A SCAMM!!! DO NOT BOOK WITH EITHER KLOOK OR CITYWONDERS!!! PLEASE BUY THE BUCKINGHAM PALACE DIRECTLY FROM THE WEBSITE AND IT IS ONLY 30 POUNDS. CHANGING OF GUARD IS FREE TO THE PUBLIC! THIS ACTIVITY DOESN’T INCLUDE TOUR GUIDE AND TOUR IN THE AFTERNOON. THE BOOKING INFORMATION IS FAKE AND NOT TRUE!

I feel that overall it is not worth spending money on this trip. It is more practical to buy tickets to Buckingham Palace directly.
Our tour guide, Rosie, did a great job! We especially liked her commentaries on the royal family and her introduction to the stockiest horse we have ever seen, Dexter. We were expecting to see the changing of the guards in front of the Buckingham Palace but saw the final instructions at the barracks. Nevertheless, it was still a great experience. We were also lucky to see the royal carriage because there were some dignitaries visiting the queen that day.
Tour guide is so funny n experienced, he is able to get the tour at the good position to watch the guard changing, n the guard horses just passed through in front of us. Wonderful !
