Such a memorable experience. The palace is beautiful and the audio guide made everything easy to follow. I'd definitely recommend adding it to your London itinerary.
Visiting Buckingham Palace was everything I hoped it would be. The State Rooms are stunning and the audio guide made the visit really interesting. It was well organised from start to finish and definitely worth seeing if you're visiting London
