Reisroute
Ontmoet je gids bij de ingang van Westminster Abbey om 09:15 uur en kijk dan in het historische monument om in de voetsporen van koningen en koninginnen te treden. Sinds de kroning van Willem de Veroveraar in 1066 zijn alle kroningen van Engelse en Britse monarchen in de abdij gehouden, evenals vele koninklijke huwelijken, waaronder die van Prins William aan Kate Middleton in 2011.
Maak vervolgens een panoramische rondleiding door de Houses of Parliament en passeer de Elizabeth Tower waar de beroemde Big Ben-bel elk kwartier luidt. Lees meer over de rol van Kamerleden die zitting hebben in het Lagerhuis en de functie van het House of Lords.
oor hoe, en waarom, de Elizabeth Tower en zijn geweldige klok en iconische bel werden gebouwd. Het Paleis van Westminster (de officiële naam van de Houses of Parliament) is in 1987 benoemd tot UNESCO-werelderfgoed en heeft een opzichtige façade met gouden torens en beelden van koningen die weerspiegelen in de rivier de Theems. Luister als uw gids de geschiedenis van het gebouw uitlegt, van de eerste middeleeuwse klokkentoren gebouwd in het oude paleis van Westminster, tot het ontwerp en de constructie van de huidige Elizabeth Tower.

Do not book with Amigo Tours. The Tour Guide did not show up at the dedicated time and meeting spot and the company refused to refund the amount paid. AWFUL!
I paid for the guided parliament in Westminster tour. Approximately 2 days ago they canceled out of the blue, the department tour. I sent three to four messages saying that I would like to be refunded for the other tour and to give me options for the parliament guided tour. I received no response. I showed up at the change time based on their message and there was no amigo tours representative outside of the Abbey shop as indicated they would be. I have now requested full refund of the tour and at this point and so disappointed with their response and lack of planned events for me in London, I would not use them for any other tour. That is wasting my time and money. We shall see how this resolves and that would indicate whether I would ever use them for any other tours
The tour guide is present for Westminster abby until you reach inside parliament, after which you have an audio guide. Both are very good & make for a high quality experience
Jane was awesome and so knowledgeable about history and explained in detail architectural designs.
Our tour time was changed 24 hours earlier and we didn't see any notification as it was only in the app. We wanted 1 hour standing around waiting for a guide. There was no seating or toilets there. Eventually a guide turned up. They give lots of information about who is buried there etc. At parliament we were basically given entry pass and had to walk around ourselves without the guide. For the price we paid, I expected more. You could easily do it all by yourself.

Had a wonderful guide named Nick Morrison. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. Highly recommend visiting Westminster with this tour.
Tour was great though crowded. The guide was very knowledgeable and shared many interesting facts.
Sue was a wonderful guide who steered us through the crowds and shared a great mix of history and fun factoids. Due to traffic we were late and was gracious enough to allow us to join the tour a bit late.
The meeting address given in the info received was incorrect. 20 Deans Yard is a specific address not close to the Abbey Shop. The tour guide talked nonstop for close to 3 hours. Too much info over too long a period of time… the tour could have been much shorter. Parliament was good as we had audio headsets and could go at our own pace.
