Muy buen Guía, nos explico nos explico muchos datos interesantes, tuvimos muchos momentos en los que vimos a la Guardia Real desfilando y el palacio es un belleza lastima que no se pueda fotografiar pero vale completamente la pena.

Reise Tour im Buckingham Palace und Westminster Abby mit Svetlana Craig am Donnerstag 30. April 2026. Ich war mit meine 16 jährigen Tochter. Der Tour mit Svetlana war informativ, unterhaltsam gleichzeitig mit Humor und Leichtigkeit. Versprochene 2,5-3 Stunden am Ende hat sich 3 Sunden und 15 Minuten resultiert , was wir nicht bemerkt haben. Es ist so abwechslungsreich gewesen, dass ich die Zeit nicht merkte. Beim nächsten London Besuch gerne wieder Mal, wie auch würde meinen Freunden Svetlana Craig empfehlen. Besten Dank und Grüsse aus der Schweiz, Zürich. Jana Blank.
