The tour guide was well knowledgeable and in the times when nothing was happening at the changing of the guard, he kept us informed. I totally appreciated the story of the man that broke in and was with the queen, and the fact that she understood him and greeted him well.... amazing story, I'm sure it was an event.

I would never be able to understand what was happening nor figure out which way to go without a guide. She was awesome, very nice with a great spirit and sense of humor and explained in details each part of the tour. I definitely recommend.

A guided tour for the changing of the guards was definitely the way to go! Our guide knew exactly where to go to get the best views and was very knowledgeable.

The guide was very good and there was plenty of information about Buckingham Palace and the changing of the guard. Unfortunately a group of four who were late for another group aggressively joined us. The guide was furious and eventually gave in and took the group away. I thought that was outrageous. After half an hour, the four of them were suddenly gone, with equipment including earphones. As if that was planned? Nevertheless, the guide was great and did a good job.

The lecturer was perfect, very friendly, and her articulation of English very understandable, with anecdotes. She took us to the best places to get a good look at the horseguards.

Our guide Marilyn did a great job on the tour 👍🏼 Unfortunately, the booking states that it is a tour "through Buckingham Palace". However, this was not the case. You walk from the Monument of York to the Palace, but do not enter the Palace itself. Nevertheless, the tour was very interesting.

We were able to enjoy all the best moments of the shift up close thanks to the guide's excellent knowledge. Aron was a perfect guide who took us to the best spots and explained a lot about traditions, the history of the guard, the history of certain characters in the monarchy. I loved it, and so did my son (8). Great mix of knowledge, humor and pedagogy!

It was a really nice experience, it is a captivating ceremonial display of British tradition. With its precision, colorful uniforms, and rhythmic music, it draws large crowds, offering a unique glimpse into royal pageantry.

Our guide knew where and when to stand for seeing the guards. We enjoyed the stories - both historical and light hearted. I would have liked to have heard more of the guards playing but then we would have missed out hearing more from the guide.

Jeremy, our guide for the Changing of the Guards, was excellent!! We were able to see the band and the Guards from a few vantage points which was fun. Jeremy also was full of intereting information about Buckingham Palace and the surrounding parks and palace. I would highly recomment taking this tour.
