Itinerary

Enjoy a captivating 90‑minute guided walk through the very heart of Royal London. Led by an expert guide, this tour takes you past some of the city’s most impressive royal landmarks while sharing fascinating stories and insights into the British Royal Family. Your journey begins at St James’ Palace, commissioned by Henry VIII and now the London residence of Princess Anne. You’ll then make your way to Buckingham Palace, where—when available—you can witness the iconic Changing of the Guard ceremony. Your guide knows the ideal viewing spot, ensuring you capture fantastic photos and videos as the guards march past.

Strolling down The Mall, you’ll see Clarence House, the London home of King Charles and Queen Camilla. With a bit of luck, you might even catch a glimpse of their motorcade arriving or departing. The walk continues through St James’s, one of London’s most historic neighbourhoods. Discover the city’s oldest wine shop, a traditional hat shop dating back to 1676, and Prince Philip’s long‑time barbers. Step into a hidden courtyard where some of London’s final sword duels took place, and hear colourful tales of King Charles II and his many mistresses. The tour concludes at Horse Guards, the royal parade ground where the monarch’s official birthday is celebrated each year with the spectacular Trooping the Colour ceremony.

Westminster Abbey Entry
Complete your royal experience with entry to Westminster Abbey, one of London’s most iconic and historic buildings. Inside, you’ll find the famous Coronation Chair, used for every monarch’s crowning since 1308, and Poets’ Corner, home to memorials and burials of literary greats such as Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and many more. The Abbey is also the resting place of numerous UK monarchs and eight former Prime Ministers. Your visit includes a multimedia guide filled with engaging commentary to enrich your journey through this extraordinary landmark.
