I really enjoyed the early entry and refreshments to start the day. I felt we got a head start on the crowds. Our guide was knowledgeable and managed to keep the tour engaging and on schedule.

Both cathedrals were breathtaking. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. We had to wait in th queue for appx 1 hour (we arrived at 9,15 am). The tour took 3 hours (and could be longer if we really stops everywhere). At Westminster you can go with the online ticket, but St. Paul's requires the paper one. So print it first otherwise there is a difficult procedure to get the ticket. We received electronic guides in both. The recommended application from the description in Headout did not work. I really appretiated the view from St. Paul¨s evend the stairs are really long (appx 500 stairs).

That's what we needed: I think that paying the single ticket isn't sometime worthy for some attraction but the London ticket prices was fair enough.

The pass allowed for spontaneous planning and enabled easy access to multiple locations through one ticket. I loved the variety of options and how clear the instructions were.

We chose 3 because we only had 1 day. It was great because it did not require reservations for Westminster Abbey which was sold out for the day.

Top things to do in London

Westminster Abbey guided tours aren’t just about old stones and royal ghosts (though there are plenty). Get the real stories—coronations, scandals, and legendary figures—all told by guides who know every hidden detail inside this 1,000-year-old masterpiece.

Why take the Westminster Abbey Guided Tours?

Go straight to the good stuff

Westminster Abbey attracts enormous crowds and often requires waiting an hour (or more) to get in. Well, not for you! A guided tour lets you skip the line and head straight inside, giving you more time to explore royal tombs, hidden chapels, and centuries of history—without the frustration.

Ask away, they know it all

Westminster Abbey has nearly 1,000 years of history, but good luck getting all the best stories from a plaque. Expert guides take you beyond the obvious, sharing royal drama, hidden tombs, and architectural wonders that make this place one of London’s most fascinating spots.

See what others miss

Forget sticking to the main halls—some tours take you deeper. Guided might lead you into lesser-known chapels, private rooms, or even the triforium, offering jaw-dropping views and exclusive insights. If you love secret spots and behind-the-scenes history, this is the way to go.

Get VIP experience

Think of this as a backstage pass to Westminster Abbey. With a private or small-group tour, you get undivided attention from your guide, unique insights, and a more intimate look at one of Britain’s most iconic landmarks—without the tourist shuffle.

Westminster Abbey guided tour vs self-guided tour

Guided tours

  • Expert-led experience: A guide brings Westminster Abbey’s history to life with wild royal tales, hidden gems, and all the juicy details you’d miss solo.
  • Skip the long lines: No wasting time in endless queues! Your guide gets you straight in so you can enjoy the Abbey, not just its entrance.
  • Hidden spots unlocked: Some tours take you beyond the usual route—think secret chapels, historic chambers, and epic views most visitors never see.
  • All your questions answered: Have you ever wondered how they clean medieval stained glass? Or who’s got the fanciest tomb? Ask away—your guide’s got the answers!

Self-guided tours

  • Go at your own pace: Linger over Poets’ Corner, speed past the tombs—your visit, your rules. No schedule, just pure Abbey appreciation.
  • Explore your interests: Whether you’re here for royal history, architecture, or just cool old stuff, you decide what deserves your full attention.
  • Soak in the atmosphere: With no tour group, you can take your time, find a quiet spot, and appreciate the Abbey’s beauty without distractions.
  • Budget-Friendly flexibility: No need to book in advance or follow a strict itinerary—grab a ticket, walk in, and explore whenever it suits you.
