About this activity

Experience the very best of British tradition with a tour that combines two unforgettable highlights: the iconic Changing of the Guard ceremony and an exploration of the magnificent Buckingham Palace. Your day begins with the pageantry of the Changing of the Guard, one of London’s most famous and beloved spectacles. With the guidance of your expert host, you’ll secure the best viewing spot to witness the Old Guard handing over responsibility to the New Guard in a ceremony filled with military precision and royal grandeur. Accompanied by the stirring sounds of a regimental band, the scarlet uniforms and towering bearskin hats create a truly memorable scene. As the ceremony unfolds, your guide will share insights into the history, symbolism, and traditions that make this event such an enduring part of British heritage.

Once the ceremony concludes, continue your royal journey with a self-guided visit to Buckingham Palace, the official London residence of the British monarch. Step inside the lavish State Rooms, where glittering chandeliers, priceless artworks, and exquisite furnishings set the stage for royal receptions and ceremonies. Discover treasured gifts presented to the monarchy from around the world and gain a sense of the grandeur that surrounds the British Royal Family. After exploring the interiors, take time to stroll through the Palace Gardens, a serene 16-hectare oasis in the heart of London where Her Majesty once hosted her celebrated summer garden parties. This rare glimpse into the world of royalty provides the perfect balance of ceremony, culture, and history, making it an experience not to be missed.
