    Nice walk, not too long, but too many informations based on tabloïds and hearsay. More research needed.

    The tour was great! Our guide was very informative and it was so easy! I would recommend this to anyone!! I also loved that she explained choosing the child option on the headset you get so my 10 year old would have a blast finding specific things in each room! It was perfect entertainment for him.

    This tour is expensive and not really worth it. You pay a premium price for a tour guide to walk you down the mall for 45 minute and then you get an audio like everyone else does for Buckingham palace. I’d recommend people just to book direct on this one. Buckingham palace is really good but it’s such a pity you aren’t allowed to take photos. So yes I’d recommend Buckingham palace but not this tour

    This was such an incredible experience! The tour guide, Michael, gave a great back ground as we walked up to the palace. He is extremely knowledgeable and a really great guide. Once we got there we were able to cut through the long line and gain access. The Palace itself was truly amazing! Stunningly beautiful and I was awestruck by it's beauty. This is a must see for visiting London!

    Der Anbieter bietet leider keinerlei Kulanz bei krankheitbedingtem Ausfall. Wir haben zwei Karten für insgesamt 150 € am Vortag online gebucht. Am nächsten Tag erkrankte meine Tochter unerwartet schwer (musste sogar in London in die Klinik) und dennoch war keine humane Regelung bezüglich teilweiser Preiserstattung möglich. Wir haben am selbigen Tag mehrfach versucht den Veranstalter telefonisch zu kontaktieren, aber die angegebenen Telefonnummern funktionieren nicht!!! Und blieb nur der Kontakt per Mail, der natürlich erst einen Tag später mit einer Info kam. Die Guides vor Ort waren verspätet am Treffpunkt und ich dachte schon, dass es sich hier um Betrug handelt. Sie waren aber freundlich und versicherten mir, dass es bei so einer hohen Gruppenzahl bestimmt eine gute Einigung bezüglich der Preiserstattung später geben würde. Wir waren in der Gruppe 30 Personen mit einem Guide. Im Buckingham Palast selbst war der Guide dann schon nicht mehr dabei, worauf viele sehr überrascht waren, da dies dann nicht die hohen Preise für das Paket widerspiegelt.

    Excellent tour. Funny and knowledgeable tour guide for the walking portion of the tour. Would highly recommend

    You will be better off just buying the entrance to the palace tickets yourself, it will be cheaper and you are doing the palace tour by yourself anyhow, so not worth it. The “walking tour” last a couple of blocks, they basically walk you from the meeting point to the entrance of the palace and that’s it. 5-10min tops. Not worth it at all.

    The walking tour was very interesting. Our guide Nathalie was excellent! The Palace visit was incredible!

    This was a great activity to do while in London. Buckingham Palace is absolutely beautiful! The guided tour up the Mall to BP was amazing chocked full of history. Our guide, Sandy was incredible. Although we had spent 4 days exploring, it was so nice to hear all the background info about some of the things we saw. If you want to go through the Palace you have to get your tickets online early. The palace is only open to the public for 10 weeks during the summer and it sells out.

    Our tour guide, Louise, was great. She made the walk up to Buckingham palace interesting and engaging, and entertaining. The entrance into the palace was quick and easy. The views inside the palace were incredible, and have to be experienced.
