England is known for fish and chips, four seasons in a day, warm ale, history in spades and of course, a deeply ingrained age-old love for pomp and ceremony. Join us as we serve a slice of world-famous ceremonial action with this small-group Changing of the Guards experience.
There is so much more to this extravagant shift change than meets the eye though- with your expert guide to lead the way, you’ll soon know your Welsh from your Grenadier guard, understand what the deal is with those fuzzy bearskin hats, hear the astounding origins of this dazzling spectacle and truly get a handle on the significance of every colour, button, mascot, symbol and movement in this most British of traditions.
From the best possible viewing point, your small group will join the guards on their journey towards Buckingham Palace as you march to the beat of their drums... but what will the music be today?

Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries
Not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health
Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness
We tend to move pretty fast to keep up with the guards, so please wear comfortable shoes and always carry water.
We will not stand at the forecourt of Buckingham Palace as, due to crowds, you see very little and the experience would be ten times less fun. We want to get you as close as possible with the opportunity to take some amazing snapshots.
It is at the discretion of the British Army to change or cancel the Ceremony. The announcement will not be made until after 10.30am so come rain or shine, the Urban Saunters Changing of the Guard experience will go ahead. If the full ceremony is cancelled, there will still be the chance to see the guards marching, just without the music.
No videoing of the guide unless they have given permission
Ceremony can be altered at the discretion of the British Army, or occasionally due to rain
There are no toilet or refreshment breaks on this tour
Tour operates in all weather conditions, please dress appropriately
Sundays – From April 2025, the Army is trying out a slightly different version of the usual ceremony on Sundays. It still involves the same number of guard movements and the same locations, but it’s now being called a “Parade” instead of a “Change.” There’s no word yet on how long this trial will last

5.00Our guide, Paul, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He really created a wonderful experience and made sure everyone in the group was included and stayed with us during the often crowded stops. I enjoyed his anecdotes that accompanied the tour as well.

5.00Excellent walking tour! Definitely worth the money. I would have never known where to stand to see so many stages of the changing of the guard. Our guide got us to many great vantage points and we saw so much. Excellent photos & videos! A real Highlight of our family trip to London. Paul was an excellent guide with a wealth of knowledge. And excellent morning well spent🇬🇧!!!
Highly recommend for families!

5.00This was a great tour! We really enjoyed Nathan's storytelling and he got us to many great spots to watch the horsemen, band and general ceremony. The tour moved at a good pace to accommodate everyone in our group (we had ages as low as five and as high as seventy) with excellent explanations of everything along the way.
Do this tour!
