Alexandra was an English Rose who eloquently and clearly delivered a very informative and interesting tour of the Mall with great consideration to those non English speaking visitors. The fantastic headphone system made her voice clear at some very noisy times.

A well organised tour that was quick and easy to check in and offered a concise pre-tour presentation before the self guided tour of the palace began. Overall the stress of getting a ticket and finding the correct entry was removed and allowed for an enjoyable experience.

The buckingham palace tour exceeded our expectations. I was in a scooter and was treated like royalty! I was ushered in the place through the Queens entrance and so wonderfully taken care of every two of the way. We were so impressed by our treatment for people with disabilities. I would 100% go back to London for this reason!
