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.

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!

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.

Review for: Join-in Buckingham Palace tour

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.
