The tours are comprehensive, starting in the Queen’s Robing Room, moving through chambers for debating and voting, and finishing in medieval Westminster Hall. Along the way, you'll encounter grandly appointed spaces and collect knowledge about British parliamentary procedure. UK residents can also tour Elizabeth Tower, but foreign visitors cannot.

we purchased tickets well in advance (it was sold out all day) and had a very informative tour conducted by Diane who was a terrific guide, explaining many areas we had not seen or knew much about.

An iconic piece of British history that I really appreciated! It’s amazing the richness of this palace originally built in the Middle Ages and shaped during the centuries. It’s really interesting to enter the House of Lords and the one of commons, analysing the differences. Moreover I suggest to take the audio-guide, so that you’ll not lose any detail or feature of this incredible building.

One of London's landmarks. Charming building of Gothic Revival architecture. Definitely visit it. Photographs inside are not permitted, except in Westminster Hall.
