Overview

Discover the best of Westminster with your qualified, private London tour guide.

Begin the day at Westminster Abbey. Walk down the royal aisle home to coronations, royal weddings and the final resting place of royalty, scientists and poets.

Next, explore Parliament Square and see iconic Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. Finally, explore Churchill's War Rooms. This underground bunker was where Churchill ran Britain's WWII operation. Learn about how The Blitz saw 10,000s of bombs dropped on London. See everything from map rooms to Churchill's bedroom, the broadcast room to the dining room. See where decisions were made that would affect the world forever.

This is the ultimate tour of Westminster - get ready for an adventure unlike any other. Timed admission tickets are included for minimal waits.

From early April to late May 2023 Westminster Abbey will be closed for King Charles III's coronation. You will visit St Paul's, the National Gallery or the British Museum instead.
