“Don’t miss”
We absolutely loved The Ultimate Westminster Free Tour! Our guide was brilliant — she clearly knew the area inside out and had a real passion for sharing its history. She took us to some fascinating places we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. The organization was flawless, the pace was just right, and the whole experience was engaging from beginning to end. One of the best things we did in London. Highly recommended!

“Absolutely perfect”
Our guide Becky was fantastic! Super super friendly, local to London and her acting background really shined through - she even sang for us and recreated some very iconic lines from the most important royals in the uk!! The tour takes us through the most famous landmarks that you cannot miss when visiting London. She gave us so many useful tips and even took us to a perfect spot to see the change of the guards!! It was overall a marvelous experience that we 100% recommend - totally worth it ????

“Rob”
Rob did a great job on our tour. He was knowledgable and informative. Sometimes on a tour, the guy tends to go on it. Rob kept our attention for the whole tour. The one suggestion I would have if the two if the group was any larger than the four of us he should have a microphone as it would be very difficult to hear him.

“A good overview and guards change event”
Becky gave a pretty nice overview about the place and history. The highlight was the change of the guards. Nice experience. Unfortunately I couldn‘t understand everything, because my language level is just medium and she speaks very fast sometimes (an original :)). So it was a bit challenging for me, but it was fully worthy nevertheless. Thank you for my first historical experience here.

“Highly Recommend ”
We did a tour with Rob, he is briliant in telling stories, just some facts he makes nicer then they were. We were lucky to see parade and King with the Queen riding the caradge. Only down side due to events happening in Central London, we could not visit and hear all stories related to James Park Westminster Palace. Would love to repeat full tour with Rob one day.

“Very nice tour”
This tour is very nice and guide was very good and interesting. It takes you to the main sites of London that everyone should see. The only thing missing were maybe some local’s secret recommendations about good restaurants or pubs and things to see which are off the main tourist track. We got that in previous tours.
