- Please arrive fifteen minutes before the start time on your voucher.
- The tour starts at 9:30 AM on Sunday and 10:15 AM on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
- The experience will end outside Buckingham Palace at around 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM.
- We tend to move pretty fast to keep up with the guards, so please wear comfortable shoes and always carry water.
- We will not stand at the forecourt of Buckingham Palace as, due to crowds, you see very little and the experience would be ten times less fun. We want to get you as close as possible with the opportunity to take some amazing snapshots.
- It is at the discretion of the British Army to change or cancel the Ceremony. The announcement will not be made until after 10:30 AM so come rain or shine, the Urban Saunters Changing of the Guard experience will go ahead. If the full ceremony is canceled, there will still be the chance to see the guards marching, just without the music.
