With this tour you will skip the line to enter, and enjoy a reduction in entrance price. Your Italian-speaking guide will share the history of this famous abbey, telling you about the eminent people who are buried here, the coronation of Queen Elizabeth the second, the funeral of princess Diana and, of course, the wedding of William and Kate.

Once you get leave Westminster Abbey, the walk goes into the most beautiful English Royal Park, St. James' Park. There, the blooming flower beds, where the cute squirrels love chasing each other, reflect in the lake, populated by swans and pelicans. When you arrive at Buckingham Palace, it will be possible to see the very well-known Changing of the Guard ceremony. The itinerary continues to Trafalgar Square where the tour ends.
