So here is a list of tours that start or end in London on the 29th April 2011 so you can be at one of the biggest Royal London parties of our time!

OK, so you’ve booked on to a tour so you’ll be in London for the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. But it’s all about being in the right place, at the right time. That’s where we come in! Here’s our top spots to grab for the best views of the Royal Wedding.

Westminster Abbey

 

It might be almost un-reachable on the day, but the wedding will take place at Westminster Abbey, so head that way if you can.

Westminster Abbey has hosted many royal coronations, weddings and funerals over the years, such as  William’s grandmother’s (Queen Elizabeth II) who was  married in Westminster Abbey in 1947. Sadly, Prince William’s mother, Princess Diana, also had her funeral here on 6 September 1997, so Westminster Abbey holds even more importance for the happy couple.
Buckingham Palace
 
Kate may begin the procession to Westminster Abbey from Buckingham Palace (before travelling along The Mall, Horse Guards Parade, Whitehall and Parliament Square which are prime spots for the best views). Buckingham Palace has served as the official London residence of the monarchy since 1837. The couple will return here after they are married, for the Queen’s reception and a private dinner party in the evening, to be held by Prince Charles.
Wherever you congregate on 29th April 2011, one thing’s for sure; you’ll be in London on one of the most important days in recent Royal history, allowing you an unforgettable experience to share with your loved ones for years to come.
