ITINERARY
Fascinating stories of kings and queens, princes and princesses, plus magnificent palaces and castles, the Crown Jewels and the centuries-old pageant of the Changing of the Guard ceremony. For pomp, majesty and splendour, this tour is royal London heaven!

Morning
The tour starts by visiting the world famous Westminster Abbey where kings and queens have been crowned for a thousand years. It was also the venue for Diana’s memorable funeral. Your guide will take you through a gothic labyrinth where you’ll discover the royal tombs of the Virgin Queen, Bloody Mary and Mary Queen of Scots.

After this, we move on to Buckingham Palace to see the splendid Changing of the Guard ceremony: all the Queen’s horses and all the Queen’s men in a centuries-old pageant of colour. Your guide will bag you the best spot for photos and regale you with regal tales. Entry to Buckingham Palace itself is also available in August and September.

Afternoon
Next, we see where Princes William and Harry currently live in London, close to Diana’s ancestral London home, and have an opportunity for a photograph in a genuine royal sentry box at St James’s Palace. The tour then heads for Kensington Palace, last home of Diana, Princess of Wales, and where the princes were brought up.

Finally… it’s off with your head, as your guide takes you to the Tower of London. See the Crown Jewels, king of bling! Gasp at the incredible story of Henry VIII and his six wives, including the tragic tale of Anne Boleyn, and take advantage of a superb photo opportunity in front of Tower Bridge.
