The tour

Royal London

London's royal quarter, driven in the right order and at the right time. The Changing of the Guard does not happen every day, so your chauffeur plans the route around the published ceremony schedule for your date rather than promising a spectacle that may not be taking place.

Why this tour

  • The royal sites are spread across Kensington, St James's and Whitehall — the car removes the dead time between them.
  • Timing is built around the guard change schedule for your chosen date.
  • Ideal for guests who want ceremony and gardens without a full day out of London.

Key stops

  • Kensington Palace and Kensington Gardens
  • Buckingham Palace and the Victoria Memorial
  • The Mall and Admiralty Arch
  • Horse Guards Parade
  • St James's Palace and Clarence House exteriors

Questions

Royal London: frequently asked

Will we see the Changing of the Guard?
We plan the route around the official schedule for your date, but the ceremony can be cancelled at short notice for weather or state events. We never guarantee it.
Can we go inside Buckingham Palace?
The State Rooms open only in certain months and require separate tickets. We can request them; they are not included in the tour price.
Is Windsor included?
No — Windsor is a separate tour because of the drive time. Many guests book Royal London and Windsor on consecutive days.
