The British authorities reserve the right to change modify or cancel the Changing of the Guards ceremony without notice in the case of wet weather and other official events. Under these conditions, the British army usually will not give final notice of cancellation until 10 minutes before the planned time. In such cases, your guide will modify the tour to include an alternative Parade where possible, and share more highlights of the Westminster area.
In the case of heavy rain, you will see a wet change (guards marching without music).
Please note that if you book your tour on Friday you’ll experience the change of the Household Cavalry.
For the Changing of the Guard ceremony, we do not stand by the Buckingham Palace gates. The crowds swarm there hours in advance, only to find they can only see the very end of the parade all while being crushed by the masses. Instead, we take you to the best spots only the locals know, and walk along with the parade! This way you see the absolute most there is to see, and it’s a much more enjoyable experience.
The majority of this tour is a walking tour, therefore we recommend wearing comfortable shoes..
Some portions of this tour are not accessible for guests with mobility needs due to the nature of the sites visited and the shared pace of the experience. Guests with accessibility or mobility requirements are encouraged to contact our team before booking so we can provide guidance and recommend the most suitable tour option.
