Buckingham Palace in London — FAQ
When can you go inside Buckingham Palace?
The State Rooms open to visitors during the summer opening (usually July to September) and on select dates. Tickets sell out, so book ahead; outside this period you can still see the exterior and the Changing of the Guard.
When is the Changing of the Guard?
The Changing of the Guard takes place outside Buckingham Palace on set mornings (typically several days a week, daily in summer). Arrive early for a good spot, or join a guided tour timed around it.
Are Buckingham Palace tours worth it?
The summer State Rooms tour is a rare chance to see the grand interiors and royal art collection. For the rest of the year, a guided royal walking tour with the Changing of the Guard is the best option.
