You will hear about the most recent coronation of Charles III that took place on the 6th May, 2023, the marriage of William and Kate – the Prince and Princess of Wales, and also stop briefly to pay our respect and celebrate the life of the late Queen Elizabeth II whose state funeral also took place at the Abbey.

After the tour, why not join us for a flight on the London Eye? (if option selected).

    Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about Westminster Abbey. He was on time to start our tour, gave us the perfect amount of information so we could appreciate the beauty, history and importance of the Abbey. My husband and I appreciated his expertise and professionalism.

    The amount of history provided was great. I was happy to hear the oldest working garden in the UK was here and it’s beautiful. Walking the building was something I won’t forget.
