The Palace of Westminster and Big Ben

My husband and I recently had the opportunity to explore the UK House of Parliament on a guided tour, and we found it to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Lasting about 1.5 hours, our guide, David, was knowledgeable and engaging without overwhelming us with political details. What stood out to us was how accessible the tour was to people with varying levels of political interest. David skillfully brought the history and significance of each area to life, from the impressive Westminster Hall to the distinguished House of Lords and the lively House of Commons. Even as non-political enthusiasts, we found it fascinating to learn about these spaces and their role in shaping the nation. David's commentary seamlessly blended with the grandeur of the building, creating an immersive atmosphere. He encouraged questions and provided detailed answers, allowing us to delve deeper into the tour's highlights. Overall, the UK House of Parliament tour offers valuable insights into British history and governance. It's a recommended experience for both locals and tourists looking to gain a deeper understanding of the country's political heritage.

An amazing experience, it was second time there and I never get tired of it. The multimedia tour is really well done, you can go at your own pace and you get the choice to dive dipper into more knowledge if you wish to do so. I spent an hour and a half doing the tour but I probably could have stayed a lot longer. From the hall, to House of Lords and the House of Commons, everything you look at, brings you to our amazing heritage and is a constant reminder that even in the darkest times of our lives we can raise back from the aches and be even greater than we were in the first place.

Very old and very well maintained. We did not go inside, but what history. They were digging up a lot of the grounds when we visited in fall of 2023. Hopefully, that is over for your visit. Such a magnificent monument to the government of the country. Glad I was able to visit

Amazing place to visit! We did the self guided multimedia tour on a weekend and spent nearly 2 hours here. We got a great overview of the history of the palace and the UK governmental system. The architecture inside is just stunning. Be advised photography is only allowed in certain areas; sadly the actual parliamentary chambers are some of the rooms where no photography is permitted. Also you get to see more rooms and actually stand in the chambers amongst the benches if you come on a Saturday when Parliament is not in session, though naturally you won't see the lawmakers at work.

The most fantastic building in London. The three most important points for tourists in London should be: the British Museum, the National History Museum and the Houses of Parliament. Guided tours are available.
