Buckingham Palace tours are open to the public from late July to the end of September. The shoulder seasons of spring and fall present a happy medium. But, if you’d like to see the Changing of Guards without having to elbow your way to the front, then winter would be the best time.
Buckingham Palace is open from Saturday to Friday (July to August) from 9:30 am to 7:30 pm. However, from September till October, it is open till 8:30 pm.
If you’re coming by train, you’ll need to hop off at the London Victoria or London Charing Cross stations. Should you decide to use the Tube, alight at the Victoria, Green Park, St. James Park, or Hyde Park Corner stops. If you plan on bussing it, you should take the 11, 211, C1, or C10 bus to Buckingham Palace Road. Those taking a coach will have to stop at Victoria Coach Station and walk for about 10 minutes in order to reach the palace. Taxis offer a hassle-free alternative to reaching Buckingham Palace.
There is no formal dress code required to visit the Palace. However, keep in mind their guideline that states: “Smart attire for men includes the wearing of a jacket and tie, and for women a trouser or skirt suit. Those wearing jeans or trainers will not be admitted and casually dressed members of the media will be turned away. This also applies to technicians.”
Yes, you can book the ticket for a guided interior tour of Buckingham Palace. However, it is available for a limited time – only once a year for two months, so book accordingly.
