The history of Westminster Abbey - Westminster Abbey was exceptional. Dan, our tour guide was dapper and knowledgable. This tour is a must. Lots of walking but a must. At the end of the tour, I stated to Dan that the only thing I hadn’t seen that I wanted to see as 10 Downing Street. At the end of the tour, Dan went out of his way to show me 10 Downing Street. Great tour, great guide, and a great experience.

Excellent Tour - We had a lovely time on the London Walking Tour. Our host/tour guide was very nice and attentive to all of our needs. She did a splendid job telling us about the beautiful Westminster Abbey as well around walking. It was quite pleasant walking over to Buckingham Place with a stop to see the Horse Guard Ceremony. I learned a lot about London.

Very Informative! - Great tour guide. I learned a lot more than I would have on my own. He knew how to maneuver our group through the crowds. It was woth the money.

Excellent tour of... - Excellent tour of Westminster Abbey and Westminster. Changing of the Guards was disappointing - didn’t get to see much of the ceremony except one set of guards march by on the outskirts a few hundred yards from Buckingham Palace. I’d book a tour of Westminster but do the changing of the guards on my own.

Such a great tour! - What a lovely day! Our guide was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about the history. We enjoyed it very much. Only thing we’d change is less time watching changing of the guard and more time in St. James park (felt like we ran through it at fevers pitch).

Not worth the price - Our guide was nice but went too fast. Everything extremely rushed. Waited 30 min to get into abbey even with skipping the line. Rushed through the Abby. Almost impossible to keep up with guide and she was unable to keep our group together. All she kept saying was for everyone to hurry up. Then we left for buckingham palace-LATE. She literally ran ahead, leaving older members of our group completely behind. The changing of the guard was cancelled that day due to unforeseen circumstances but we didn’t find that out till we arrived at the palace. Had it been on as scheduled we would have actually missed it. And for this price I would have been extremely unhappy. All in all, waste of money: skip this tour and take an audio tour of westminster abbey yourself. Didn’t learn a single thing about changing of the guard or buckingham palace- it was so bad people were turning their headphones in and leaving our tour early.

Unless your completely fit for a marathon don’t take this tour - It is not an easy walking tour this is very fast passed and you are pretty much running through it to get to the next things. Don’t be surprised if you miss part of the tour because the tour guide isn’t too concerned about all of the tour but the part that she is on.
