First up, we will witness the amazing moment when the King's Lifeguard - aka the Household Cavalry - come on duty. Our expert guide will ensure you're super close to the action. If you love horses, this is perfect!
Then we make a beeline for the main event - Changing the Guard. This is where we will see the iconic guards with their bearskin hats marching along the Mall. If your group are keen, we will march alongside the band!
