Step into the grandeur of British royalty on a private walking tour through the heart of London, led by a local expert guide. Your group is the only one on the tour, and it can be customised. We stroll through St. James's Park, spotting squirrels and parakeets along the way, and visit St. James's Palace and Clarence House, the official residence of King Charles III and Queen Camilla. We'll walk The Mall, a ceremonial route rich in royal history, and see Buckingham Palace, where the Changing of the Guard takes place on selected days. At Horse Guards Parade there's a chance to grab a photo with a King's Guard on a Royal Horse. We finish with the chimes of Big Ben, the ever-controversial Houses of Parliament, and the exterior of Westminster Abbey, where British monarchs are crowned, with fascinating tales shared all the way. Please note the Changing of the Guard is subject to weather and Palace scheduling.
