10:30 AM- Buckingham Palace & St. Jame’s Park
Time to get our day started with maybe the most famous house in the world besides the White House. Buckingham Palace is a must-see when visiting London, and it’s the perfect starting place. You can hop on the Tube and get off at Green Park or St James’s Park station, which is just a short walk away.
Buckingham Palace is where the Queen of England lived when she was in London, but after her passing, it seems to be empty of royal family members. Tours are available around the palace, but the real treat is seeing the famous changing of the guard ceremony.
The guard changes at 10:45 AM, so make sure to time it right and get there a little early to secure a good spot for viewing.
