Overview

Enter the heart of British democracy including the Westminster Abbey on this exclusive tour with a live guide, instead of an audio guide. You will be a part of a small group of 19 that will enrich your experience and give you an in-depth insight into two most important buildings in the world.

Your tour begins at Westminster Abbey, the spiritual heart of England for hundreds of years. While visiting the abbey you will see the magnificent gothic architecture and the Coronation Chair. As you gape at the jaw-dropping, gothic nave, your guide will point out the history and symbolism that are hidden in every corner. You will visit the part of the abbey that houses the tombs of the members of the royal family, aristocrats and illustrious personalities such as scientists and poets, including the tombs of Charles Dickens, Geoffrey Chaucer and Rudyard Kipling.

Next, you will go across the street to begin your London Parliament Tour. You will start from the Westminster Hall, the oldest parts of the Houses of Parliament and as you marvel at this ancient meeting place that has been hosting political functions for nearly 1,000 years, your guide will regale you with stories of the past and share the history of the people and events.

During your visit, you will also enter the Chamber of the House of Commons and the most notable part of the Parliament building – the splendid Chamber of the House of Lords.
