Full Description
Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Palace serves as both the office and London residence of Her Majesty the Queen. It is one of the few working royal palaces remaining in the world today. For a limited time each summer when the palace is not being used in its official capacity, visitors are welcomed to walk in the footsteps of the Queen and explore the nineteen lavish State Rooms which form the heart of the working palace. These are opulently decorated and furnished with the finest treasures from the Royal Collection.
You’ll explore the State Rooms with a multimedia guide so you can enjoy this at your own pace. At the end of your tour, you’ll walk along the south side of the Palace garden, where you’ll meet your guide before the next part of your Royal journey.
