Westminster & Royal London Free Walking Tour
Crowns, parliaments and a thousand years of power
Every coronation since 1066 has happened within a few hundred meters of where this tour walks. From Trafalgar Square through Whitehall’s corridors of power to Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, this is the essential London route — kings, queens, traitors and the odd prime minister included.
The walk starts at Trafalgar Square (Trafalgar Square, London WC2N) and runs daily at 10:00 and daily at 14:30. It lasts around 2.5 hours, is offered in English, Spanish, and the group is capped at 25 people so the experience stays personal. Look for the guide with the green FreeTour sign.
