Tag along with Daniel to hear the fascinating story of London's Westminster area.
This self-guided tour of Westminster will show you some of the highlights of London and will concentrate on government, history and the Crown. We start at the Houses of Parliament, and walk along Westminster Abbey, where all monarchs are crowned and many are buried; the Banqueting House, the UK’s first classical building; Downing Street, home to Prime Ministers for 200 years; St James’s Park and Palace, a royal playground and home; to finish at Buckingham Palace, home of the current monarch. If you’re new to London this tour will tell you almost 1,000 years of history and cover many of the key events in that time.

Itinerary
Houses of Parliament (Pass By)
You are looking at the Houses of Parliament. This building is also known as the Palace of Westminster and is the seat of the UK’s parliamentary democracy. The building has two chambers; an elected lower house (the House of Commons) and an appointed upper house (the House of Lords). Together they write UK laws.
Parliament Square
Parliament Square is the green space in front of the Houses of Parliament. This is a public space and is often used as a place of political protest due to its location next to Parliament. Today the green is the home to various statues of historically important people.
10 minutes
Winston Churchill Statue (Pass By)
Our first statue is the one right next to you marked Churchill in large letters. This is Winston Churchill who was a Member of Parliament and Prime Minister twice (1940 – 45 and again 1951 -55).
Millicent Fawcett Statue (Pass By)
We have only one woman depicted in Parliament Square. This is Millicent Fawcett, who was a campaigner for women’s suffrage. Dame Millicent led Britain's largest women's rights association, the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies, from 1897 to 1919.
Nelson Mandela Statue (Pass By)
Nelson Mandela was a politician and first President of South Africa from 1994 – 1999. In South Africa, he is often called the Father of the Nation.
Saint Margaret's Church on Parliament Square (Pass By)
The Church of St Margaret is called the Church on Parliament Square. It is known as the church of members of the House of Commons.
Westminster Abbey
Along with St Paul’s Cathedral in the City of London; this is the most famous church in London. You may know this church from some of the most famous ceremonies including the funeral of Diana or the wedding of William to Kate Middleton in 2011. It is also known as the burial place of kings and queens as well as some of the country’s most accomplished citizens.
10 minutes
N/A (Pass By)
On Great George Street, you will see four red telephone boxes. These are all K6 telephone kiosks. In fact, there are eight different designs of kiosks all introduced by the General Post Office between 1926 and 1989.
Cenotaph (Pass By)
In the middle of the road, you will see a large stone monument. This is the Cenotaph and it is the focus of remembrance for souls lost in war. The design is by the architect Edwin Lutyens.
10 Downing Street (Pass By)
The street is home to several key houses and offices supporting the British Government. The most famous of these is number 10, which is the office and home of the British Prime Minister.
Banqueting House (Pass By)
On the opposite side of the road, you will see a neoclassical building in white stone. This is the Banqueting House. King James I was in need of a new banqueting house to replace a disappointing one that burned in 1619. The architect and Surveyor of the King's Works, Inigo Jones, was given the commission to build a replacement.
Horse Guards Parade at Whitehall
If you are here at the right time of day, you can see two mounted cavalry soldiers guarding a gatehouse and the parade grounds behind. This is the Horse Guards and the building includes a museum that is open to the public. These soldiers are part of the Household Cavalry and are part of the Queen’s official bodyguard.
10 minutes
St. James's
This green space is today a public park but for most of its history, it was part of a royal hunting ground. London holds eight royal parks of which this 57-acre park is just one.
15 minutes
Duke Of York Column
This is the statue of Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany. He was the second son of King George III and Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburgh-Strelitz and rumoured to be his father’s favourite son.
5 minutes
N/A (Pass By)
Across the road, you can see a fine red brick and white stone house with many flags in the garden. This is Marlborough House and today is the international home of the Commonwealth Secretariat. The flags represent each member nation.
St. James's Palace (Pass By)
You are now standing in front of the official residence of the Queen, Elizabeth II. This is St James’s Palace and it has been the home of British monarchs since the 1530s.
Clarence House (Pass By)
The next house that you will see from the Mall is Clarence House. It is the white house with stucco decoration set back from the road. This home was designed by the great Regency architect, John Nash, in 1827 for Prince William Henry, Duke of Clarence.
Buckingham Palace
We have reached the final stop on our tour today. This is Buckingham Palace and it has been the London home to British Kings and Queens since Queen Victoria moved here in 1837.

Nice walk
Published on Apr, 2022
Incredible introductory tour to London, specifically to the Westminster and Parliament area. At first, I was a bit sceptical to do this tour alone with my phone but it turned out really nice. Having plenty of time to take pictures and walk at my own pace was really cool and Daniel’s audio guide made it a more personal experience (a really knowledgeable guy and a friendly voice!). It took me about 2 hours to complete the walking tour, and I really enjoyed it!
I am certainly looking forward to booking more tours with these guys!
