Westminster Abbey and Parliament Tours Well Done
Julie_B
, Jul 2022
The Westminster Abbey tour was led by a tour Guide. He provided many details about the Abbey and respectful of our time. He also provided an overview of Parliament in person, but this tour was an audio tour. At first we were disappointed, but the audio tour was well done. We enjoyed both tours, but the Parliament tour was our favorite

Jane was a great tour guide with some wonderful facts, a fun attitude, and a quick wit. Note most of the tour is not about parliament, but Westminster abbey is rich with history (far more than I would have guessed). Jane so kindly also let us know you could go in and watch parilement during the week without problem. Which was great.

The tour guide was great, but the tour only included Westminster Abbey. Very misleading and quite expensive compared to other tours. Definitely select another tour which includes both for the same price.

Tour title needs to be renamed!
Ruth_M
, Jun 2022
The tour inside Westminster Abbey was good, but the title of the program is VERay misleading. We thought we were having a tour inside parliament which is why we signed up and it’s really a go lol at it yourself from the outside. I would not have paid the money for this tour knowing that. The tour title needs to be renamed!

Beautiful Abbey and great tour by Richard
Carolien_R
, Jun 2022
The Abbey is beautiful and Richard is a great guide. You can walk through tge Abbey yourself and see the statues and memorials, but his explanations of how it all came about brings it to life. I learned a lot about history and Richard tells it in an engaging way. I'm very happy I took the guided tour.

I received an email that my tour had been canceled! But worse, there was no mechanism to request a refund. They wanted to reschedule me for the 10th—long after I’d left London. More than unhappy. Was for four people— that’s a great deal of money!!!

Westminster Abbey is truly amazing and our guide was a wealth of knowledge. I had a good experience. However, today was a very busy day and it was difficult to navigate through the abbey and listen to the guide. Our guide was good, but a little less commentary would have made things a bit smoother.

Awesome time at the Abby
Mark_S
, May 2022
We did a combined tour on a Saturday that started first thing in the morning in Westminster Abby for two hours and then two more hours touring Parliament. Our host was Jacob and he provided an excellent tour of the Abby. The Parliament was an audio tour. From beginning to end, this tour was amazing. I consider it the highlight of our trip to London and Madeira this last week. In many ways, it felt like Westminster Abby and Parliament are a heartbeat of London. If you are like me and not a UK native, the organized, small-group tour was a great option since they provided the background necessary to understand the meaning of what you are looking at. It is so much more than just amazing architecture.
