Visiting while the government is in recess, you’ll be able to explore the House of Commons and House of Lords, as well as many of the other beautiful halls and chambers in which the laws of Great Britain are decided. Along the way, you’ll learn the unique stories and traditions of one of Europe’s oldest constitutional monarchies.
Your day begins with skip-the-line entry into Westminster Abbey, the most serene time to see Britain’s most cherished church. On your visit, you’ll learn from a local expert guide how the British monarchy helped shape the country’s conversion to democracy, as well as a few interesting tidbits about Winston Churchill.
Then it’s on to Parliament. While most people see it with an audio guide, you’ll be shown around by a tour guide who has spent years studying the facts and events that really immerse you in the story of this amazing building. Next, you’ll head into the Chamber of the House of Commons and then onto the Chamber of the House of Lords before going into two of the most unique rooms in the building: the Division Lobbies. As you stroll these halls, you'll be walking in the footsteps of men like Henry VIII and Winston Churchill.
