Great tour, Marnie was amazing, she knows her facts and made it really lots of fun. LOVED every moment.
Enjoyed viewing the palace. Posted staff were friendly and very knowledgeable. Really enjoyed having a snack at the end of the tour in the grounds garden.
The tour started with the Changing of the Guards. Michael, our guide, showed us the best vantage points for a great view. He was fun, very interactive and had facts and anecdotes for every step of the tour. The audio guided tour of the Palace was amazing. Afternoon tea at St. Ermins was a great end to the tour.
We enjoyed everything and went to wrong meeting place after tour before tea to meet up for tea. No place to call to recover. Left message but too late Later corporate for tour people called back and basically said should have paid better attention. I was nice and said yes I guess so but thought if I were going to call with that attitude, I wouldn’t have called. Usually the people that Viator chose are a good group and we have been on tours before and not had a problem. So something went amiss and there was no vehicle available to contact anyone. And the back office could care less. So who knows
Buckingham Palace is open to the public only a few months a year. I lucked out to take this tour. My only gripe is that you meet at York Column and then have a long walk to palace. I could not keep up with tour guide but he stopped enough that I would catch up. State rooms were exquisite and tour was on your own. They have nice cafe in back of palace for a pleasant bite to eat. Exits through lovely gardens and ponds. Very nice tour.
the tour inside the Buckingham Palace was a great experience to us, but the changing of Guard was a bit disappointed; we only see the horse parades on road but not the actual Guard changing ceremony in front of the Palace or the Guarding post.
Recommend this tour.. the guide was good
My family of four greatly enjoyed the Buckingham Palace tour with afternoon tea at the St Ermins. Our guide was friendly and efficient and knew exactly where to take us for access to great pictures of the changing of the guard. (We previously attempted to see the changing of the guard on a prior London trip, our own, and were almost completely unsuccessful due to crowds).
