Overview
Led by a historian and designed by a former Guardsman, this walking tour is the best way to see the Changing of the Guard ceremony. You’ll get historical context, insider knowledge and great vantage points. You’ll also walk alongside the New and Old Guards as they march along The Mall. If you are wondering, it is as exciting as it sounds.
You’ll see Buckingham Palace, of course, but you’ll also visit St James’s Palace and Clarence House, and understand how these royal residences fit into this world-famous ceremony. If we’re lucky (it sometimes happens), you might even catch a glimpse of the King and Queen.
Finally — and just as importantly — there’ll be plenty of fun and laughter along the way, as confirmed by the many five-star reviews.

Return details
We finish our walk at Buckingham Palace. From there, it's just a short walk back to Trafalgar Square. Green Park tube station and St James's Park tube station are also very close.
-
Trafalgar SquareWe start at Trafalgar Square. It’s the most important square in London, easy to find, and it has a direct link to why the ceremony first began
- This palace rivals Buckingham Palace and is a must‑see in its own right. It’s also where the Guard come off duty (pass by)
- We will march beside the Guards and the ceremonial band as they make their way down The Mall towards Buckingham Palace. (pass by)
-
Wellington BarracksThis immense Georgian barracks is where the Changing of the Guard both begins and ends, and we will be here to see the new Guard come on duty.
- Your Changing of the Guard experience concludes outside Clarence House, the home of the King and Queen - which is just a couple of minutes away from Buckingham Palace. It will also be a final opportunity to see the Guards and the ceremonial band, and we are likely to see the Horse Guards as well. From here, it’s a short walk to Green Park or St James’s Park stations, or around 15 minutes on foot to Trafalgar Square or Parliament Square. (pass by)
