The experience was very interesting, we were able to get in quickly and without problems, we took a free tour from one of the tower guards (the best) and spent most of the day seeing the grounds, the visit is much longer than we thought but there was always something interesting to see.

Jeremy, our guide for the Changing of the Guards, was excellent!! We were able to see the band and the Guards from a few vantage points which was fun. Jeremy also was full of intereting information about Buckingham Palace and the surrounding parks and palace. I would highly recomment taking this tour.
