Enjoy the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace
You cannot visit London without taking part in some of its quintessential traditions and institutions, such as the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace.

Your guide will navigate to secure you a spot with a prime view at the Changing of the Guard, after which you’ll have the rare chance to visit the inside of the royal residence: Buckingham Palace. The palace opens its doors to visitors for a limited time each year and it seems that just about everyone would like to get inside! 

Guides are not allowed to speak inside the palace, so your guide will take the time to arm you with plenty of background information and advice before you set off on your own to explore the State Apartments.
