Overview of your London tour:

Westminster Abbey is one of my very favourite places to guide in London. I have been examined on it's intricate history as a professional Blue Badge Guide and am proud to be an accredited guide of this royal church which has a history of 900 years. I can show you all it's highlights and important monuments and hope to bring it's history to life for you in my private tour. I have been guiding there for more than 20 years now and can tell you stories you won't find in the tourist books and you can ask me all you want to know about the abbey, the reformation of the church under king Henry VIII etc. You won't be disappointed in your experience if you visit Westminster Abbey in the presence of a passionate professional Blue Badge guide and you won't have to wait in the long line to enter in my company.

Your London tour itinerary

VWe will meet at the West Towers (main entrance to Westminster Abbey right next to the Abbey bookstore or I can collect you from your hotel if you prefer that. You will have special priority entrance with me via Deans Yard, the old cloisters of the medieval monastery. I will then take you inside of the church to see • The Coronation Chair, • The Grave of the Unknown Soldier • the choir stalls and the Theatre where coronations and royal wedding took place. • Queen Mary and Elisabeth I graves and the Innocents chapel. • Poets Corner where many of Britain's great poets and writers rest. • Tombs of famous British people of the last 3 centuries. . . We will also have a close look at the architecture of the building and see differences between the early French gothic style and the English late gothic style with its magnificent fan vaulting ceiling. If there is time left, I can show you more in the nearby area of Westminster ( eg. Big Ben, Houses of Parliament and even Buckingham Palace).
