Step by Step

This locally guided walking tour will take you on a short adventure through London's most iconic neighbourhood, the borough of Westminster. You'll explore its lively streets and enjoy the Victorian architecture on a 3-hour walking tour.

One of the most significant sights you'll see is Buckingham Palace, home to the British royals. It was originally built as a petit hôtel for the Duke of Buckingham, but from 1763 it began to be used as a private residence for British monarchs. The curious Changing of the Guard ceremony takes place here.

Take a pleasant stroll through Green Park and St. James Park. These parks were created as hunting grounds for the Royal family. The Royal Palace of St. James or the Royal Horse Guards Parade are other notable attractions in this area.

Cross The Mall to find Trafalgar Square, symbol of the British victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, the former royal residence of Whitehall and the iconic Downing Street, home to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

You will also discover the famous Big Ben and the Palace of Westminster, historical monuments that are a must-see in London and of high political importance.

A visit inside Westminster Abbey will complete this fantastic tour thanks to the tickets included in the tour. This was the coronation and burial place of English and British monarchs for centuries, as well as illustrious English personalities such as Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton and William Shakespeare. The tour usually lasts an average of 2 hours, but you can stay as long as you like inside. In addition, you will have an audio guide that you can download to your phone to discover all the secrets that this place hides within its great walls.

    Interesting tour offer, I liked the idea of walking around Westminster first and then going to Westminster Abbey. We arrived a bit late to see the whole ceremony of the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, but we still recorded what we could, because it is a ritual worth seeing. I have to admit that the tour is complete and at a very good price.
