Fantastic. We took our children age 7&6 and my husbands parents and purchased the Royal day out trip.
Worth checking when the changing of the guards is on, as we booked at 11 and it was heaving with people who were there to watch the changing of the guard. This delayed our first visit as police shut the roads and lots of foreign tourists were not taking direction from the police.
We started at the kings Gallery which was lovely, interesting, but we didn’t stay too long as kids weren’t too gripped. We then went to the Royal Mews , greeted by a guided tour guide called Debbie. Her tour was AMAZING, she was so knowledgable, funny and had us all captivated from 6-68 years old!! She deserves a big bonus- what a credit to the Buckingham palace staff.
We concluded with the staterooms and gardens- absolutely fascinating and breathtaking. The garden cafe, and icecream shop were reasonably priced.
Toilet facilities were more frequent than advertised.
We brought a picnic with us and ate it on the green opposite BP in between kings gallery and the Royal Mews.
Highly recommend- was a gorgeous day out. Well done Debbie for being our highlight!! 5*
