We had a wonderful guide who explained so well about the architectural features and symbols throughout the cathedral.  She also engaged our 9 year old grandson who enjoyed the visit as much as we did. We loved the words in Latin at the centre of the cathedral placed by Wren's son with the meaning "if you want an epitaph to Sir Christopher Wren, simply look around you!" It was lovely to pause on the hour to reflect that St Paul's is a place of worship and to say The Lord's Prayer together in our mother tongues.

Visita piacevole e ben organizzata con le audio guide che descrivono in modo divertente i vari punti di riferimento durante il percorso. Nessun problema di code per accedere ne durante la visita della cattedrale di St Paul's e Westminster Abbey.

Pleasant and well-organized tour with the audio guides amusingly describing the various landmarks along the way. No problems with queues for access nor during the visit to St Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey.

Pas de surprises avec les billets achetés via Headout. Tout c'est passé à merveille. Très beau lieu Saint, et avec l'audio-guide la durée de visite est parfaite, ni trop courte ni trop longue (~1h30/2h). 😁

No surprises with tickets purchased via Headout. Everything went perfectly. Very beautiful Saint place, and with the audio-guide the duration of the visit is perfect, neither too short nor too long (~1h30/2h). 😁

De supers expériences ! L'échange des tickets se fait sans problèmes. Très belle expérience à l'abbaye, avec l'audio guide ! Et également bon moment à la Tour de Londres, avec la découverte des joyaux de la couronne. 

Great experiences! Exchanging tickets is easy. Great experience at the abbey, with the audio guide! And also a great time at the Tower of London, with the discovery of the crown jewels.

Nous avons pris nos entrées pour midi. Presque  personne dans la file d'attente, ce qui n'était pas le cas vers 14h. Nous avons fait une visite sans audioguide. L'abbaye est magnifique à l'intérieur , très chargée en sculptures. Nous avons auusi apprécié les différents petits jardins. Mon fils de 10 ans  a bien aimé. 

We took our appetizers for lunch. Hardly anyone in line, which was not the case around 2pm. We took a tour without an audioguide. The interior of the abbey is magnificent, with a wealth of sculptures. We also enjoyed the various small gardens. My 10-year-old son really enjoyed it.

Westminster Abbey, Big Ben & Buckingham Palace Guided Tour

The tour guide's knowledge was great! Lucy was awesome! 

Unsere Führerin war sehr motiviert und hat uns auch bestens durch das an unserem Wochenende überfüllte London geleitet! Ihre Ausführungen waren sehr unterhaltsam und informativ, ihre Tipps haben wir in den darauffolgenden Tagen gut umsetzen können! Nochmals herzlichen Dank ... absolut empfehlenswert!!!

Our guide was very motivated and showed us the best way through London, which was overcrowded on our weekend! Her explanations were very entertaining and informative, and we were able to put her tips into practice in the days that followed! Many thanks again ... absolutely recommendable!!!

La guidé était très gentille et volontaire
L'expérience est cependant très longue pour les enfants : beaucoup d'explications difficiles à suivre pour eux

The guide was very kind and willing
However, the experience is very long for children: lots of explanations that are difficult for them to follow.

Les aspects reposant et instructif de la visite sont très appréciables.  Nous nous laissons guider dans Westminster avec des petites poses agréables.
La guide était appliquée, très sympathique et nous transmettait naturellement sa culture londonienne en français !
La découverte de l'abbaye de Westminster était passionnante et certains détails seraient passés inaperçus sans Carole.
Il est dommage que le tour précise la visite de Big Ben et du palais de Buckingham alors qu'il n'est pas possible d'y pénétrer en avril. 
Nous avons eu les descriptions sur ces bâtiments de l'extérieur par ailleurs très intéressantes. 
Je conseille 

The relaxing and instructive aspects of the visit are very much appreciated.  We let ourselves be guided through Westminster with pleasant little poses.
The guide was diligent, very friendly and naturally conveyed her London culture in French!
The discovery of Westminster Abbey was fascinating, and some details would have gone unnoticed without Carole.
It's a pity that the tour specifies a visit to Big Ben and Buckingham Palace when it's not possible to enter them in April.
The descriptions of these buildings from the outside were very interesting.
I'd recommend

Westminster Abbey Guided Tour with Skip-the-Line Entry

We had a  wonderful informative guide who made the tour fun. She was extremely knowledgeable yet did not go over the top with the history of the Abbey. I highly recommend this tour. 

Sehr gut Führung von Mila! The stories were very interesting and she kept us fascinated. She knew answer to every question 

Lucy was an excellent and energetic guide on a freezing afternoon. Lucy was extremely knowledgeable about the British monarchy and broke up the monotony with stories about the royals. She took pride in teaching my kids British history, which tied in nicely with the Westminster Abbey tour.

Combo (Save 5%): Westminster Abbey + Tower of London Tickets

Ticketbuchung und Einlass waren super zuverlässig. Für den Tower sollte man ausreichend Zeit einplanen; an sich ist dies ein Tagesprogramm. Die Juwelen sind wunderschön und trotz Menschenmassen in Ruhe anzusehen. Für die Menschenmassen kann wohl kaum jemand was, wir waren schließlich auch dabei. Ansonsten ist der Tower eine tolle und wirklich sehenswerte Anlage mit vielen kleinen Ausstellungen und Attraktionen. Insgesamt beeindruckt London. Man schafft mit Ruhe, Verstand, Sinn für Kultur und Kunst nicht alle Highlights und sollte lieber ausgewählt den Eintritt bezahlen. Lieber kommen wir wieder und sind gerne wieder Kunde bei Euch. Vielen lieben Dank und Grüße an die lustigen Raben. 

Ticket booking and admission were super reliable. You should plan enough time for the Tower; this is actually a day program. The jewels are beautiful and can be viewed in peace despite the crowds. The crowds are hardly anyone's fault, as we were there too. Apart from that, the Tower is a great and really worth seeing site with lots of small exhibitions and attractions. Overall, London is impressive. You can't see all the highlights with peace, quiet and a sense of culture and art, and it's better to pay the entrance fee selectively. We would rather come back and would be happy to be your customers again. Many thanks and best wishes to the funny ravens.

Super bequem bereits von zu Hause buchen. Würde ich jedem empfehlen. Sonst können die Warteschlangen ganz schön lang sein oder man kommt erst gar nicht rein.  Hat alles prima funktioniert und der Tower ist wirklich sehr interessant und sehenswert. 

Super convenient to book from home. I would recommend it to anyone. Otherwise the queues can be quite long or you don't even get in.  Everything worked great and the tower is really very interesting and worth seeing.

Azquistare i biglietti è stato molto facile, idem accedere alla Torre di Londra semplicemente mostrando i QR codes sullo smartphone. Abbiamo potuto entrare senza alcun problema ben un'ora e mezza prima, forse perchè non era troppo affollato, ed abbiamo visitato il sito per circa 8 ore, avvalendoci di un'audioguida in italiano per sole  5 sterline ciascuno. 

Azacquiring tickets was very easy, ditto accessing the Tower of London by simply showing the QR codes on your smartphone. We were able to enter without any problem as much as an hour and a half early, perhaps because it was not too crowded, and we visited the site for about 8 hours, availing ourselves of an audio guide in Italian for only £5 each.
