- In this video, Sinead, a tour guide with Free Tours by Foot London, brings you to the best places to watch the Changing of the Guard ceremony. WATCH OUR FULL WESTMINSTER VIDEO • London Walking Tour: B... .
The Changing of the Guard is a large formal ceremony in which a group of soldiers is relieved of their duties by a new batch of soldiers and are accompanied by marching bands and many, many onlookers.
Technically, the main ceremony takes place at Buckingham Palace, but this isn't really the best place to view it. Parts of the ceremony take place in 3 other locations near Buckingham Palace. And these are St. James's Palace, Clarence House, and Wellington Barracks.
And in this video, Sinead is going to show you the best way to witness as much of the process, pomp, and excitement as possible.
02:00 - St. James's Palace Guard Change
22:20 - New Guard Leaves Wellington Barracks
27:42 - Mini Guard Change at Clarance House (Prince Charles's Home)
38:36 - Old Guard Returns to Wellington Barracks

Hi Sniead, how are you? I loved watching the guards when I was in London. Unfortunately, didn't see the changing of the guard.
I'm currently working on a story involving a story about a royal guard its called falling hard for the Royal guard by Megan Clawson you should read it. That's the actual title of the book. I. Writing the fanfiction to it. xxx ❤😊
I've been watching these virtual tours of London recently during lockdown here in Sydney, Australia. It's bringing back many memories. So professional, just the right pace. Thank you Sinead.
Glad you enjoyed it, Yvonne! We are proud to bring a bit of London to you. You might also enjoy our Westminster walking tour video ruclips.net/video/__jg98sdg_Q/видео.html.
I remember being part of changing the guard many years ago as a military musician. It is great for tourists but for the lads and lasses involved it is a long day.
Thank you for your hard work…it was worth it…we LOVE it and will never tire of it! I hope you are sitting back and enjoying it all!
.dindnt know lasses were involved.💖💖😊😊
This video is seriously underrated. It should have at least 100k views
Thank you for this kind compliment!
aww this was the best, i thank you with all of my heart, you know exactly what my spirit needed. Since i have never traveled abroad, and always wanted to tour the UK, this was right up my alley!! I always dreamed of going to the UK since i was 14, it seemed my life started at that age, there was a terrible life before that but my dream started at that tender age. this was so amazing and i called it right, you are my sister and i adore and love you through my soul!!
The Guard in the start of the video, ""it's not the slip-it's the recovery that counts"" Sinead, you in the UK have such a Long and Dynamitic History. Between the History, the cities, the small towns to the beauty of the country side you have enough subject matter to last you for years. My neighbors moved here from Manchester about 5 years ago and they call me a "Brit" stuck in a American body because I read so much UK history. A GEM of a watch.... I went way over break, Back to work I go..............
Mike ,actually thought you were British lol
Thank you again for your, as always fabulous contribution
Sinead
@@leary210275 Not British, I just read a lot, Love history.
They're part of US Corp City of f London ,in charge of Enomic finances Vatican, - spiritual guidance District of Columbia provide to t he e military are all s now debunked dissolve bankrupt .
Dynamitic! Agreed. Especially on November 5th, the annual Guy Fawkes Day, celebrated throughout the UK with a flash, bang, wallop, etc. Dynamitic indeed...
Thank you very much for sharing I’ve been watching the changing of the guards in London for a very long time before the pandemic. I really enjoy watching them marching and listening to the military band. It is very therapeutical to watch them because you forget almost everything that’s worrying you at that time and you just get glued on what is happening and even dance along their music. What Always do is to pray and bless them as they carry on doing their royal March and playing their instruments. It’s lovely to see and I encourage others to support them. They bring the British tradition to life. Brilliant. On the other hand you may hear other spectators mocking them and saying negative words, but in all this I always look on the positive and enjoy myself in what they do because I think if my brother or sister was one of them, how would I feel about the negativity?? Bad indeed. So I choose to look on the good side and support them in prayer, blessing and cheering them up. God Save the Queen and bless us all.
When my friend and I visited in 2011 we took a day long black cab tour. We started at Abbey Road and then we arrived at St. James Palace and the band was playing a Beatles song. Then off to Buckingham Palace. We didn't know about Free Tours by Foot then but our guide knew what he was doing. I loved seeing it again! Thank you!
No problem. Next time you are in London (or one of our other cities) you can take our tour, Sherrie :). BTW, have you watched our Abbey Road Crosswalk video? ruclips.net/video/kgn49KhsCyM/видео.html
Thank you all guards of all regiments, military band, the life guards and the Royal blues for all what you do for Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth the Second, for the British public and Tourists and any other visitors who come and visit Britain and end up having the opportunity to watch if they happen to be in London when you’re doing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. Thank you very much for the joy and peace you bring to one during your performance. May the good Lord Bless you and your families. Keep up the good work and do not pay much attention to negative comments. Know that you’re British’s Best. I like you all and have enjoyed my time watching you and dancing along your military musicians especially when they play Christian pieces e g Amazing Grace, Just a closer with thee, it was very helpful to listen to these pieces. God Save the Queen and Bless us All.
Best view I ever had was at the Wellington Barracks. Seeing the inspection of the old guard was cool, but the best was the day we were there, one of the band members had his last day and the band played him off as he left the group.
Fabulous tour and terrific information! I will definitely use these tips when I visit next month. Sinead is fantastic. I’ve watched almost all of her tours and really enjoy them. Thank you Sinead!
We'll publish the route soon. And if you haven't already done so, you might also enjoy our Westminster Tour ruclips.net/video/__jg98sdg_Q/видео.html.
I took the Changing of The Guard tour with Sinead a few years ago. I remember her saying “ tour group Go! Go! Go! “ as we dashed from place to place. Sinead is very informed, knows all the tricks, and has a lovely personality. Her tours are a must. Graham Sydney Australia
I had just finished 13 hours shift at the Hospital and and what more could ask than have the pleasure of watching you.
Parminder thank you sincerely such a compliment
Hope you have time to recuperate
Sinead
And thank you for working in healthcare.
Brilliant stuff Sinead. I love these "special" videos. This and the raising of Tower Bridge are just superb. Filled with tips, fantastic knowledge and timings. You've hit them both out of the park. Well done.
Thanks Declan
I will never tire of The Guard Change always such fun
Sinead
Another great video by the beautiful Sinead. Your knowledge of London is vast!
I loved it all. Thank you for making these fantastic videos. Love it love it love it!!!😊
What a brilliant video. Thank you SO MUCH.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us Sinead. Our country has such beautiful traditions.
Our pleasure!
She made this with lovely very very well done and I really appreciate the fact that you pointed out that any experienced tour guide will go nowhere near Buckingham Palace during The changing of the guard beautifully
Glad that you enjoyed the video, Jerri, and thanks for subscribing. If you haven't done so already, you can hopefully check out our back catalogue of virtual London tours ruclips.net/user/FreeToursbyFootLondonvideos. There is more of Sinead where this came from.
Sinead, you surely said it right. The amateur way of watching the ceremony is like I have done it the eight or ten times I have been present, the first occasion way back to 1969!, and that is standing outside the gates of Buckingham Palace. Next time I will follow your steps. Thanks a lot for an amazing tour and all your explanations. Regards from Mexico.
Oh I just loved this one Sinead! Especially when the band played! Awesome stuff. Thanks yet again!
So pleased you enjoyed it - hopefully you can see it in person with us!
This one of the best walking tour videos I've ever watched on RUclips. Thank you, Sinead! I will join your tour when I'm in London.

The Changing of the Guard is a "formal" Guard Mount in "military speak." What you call a mini guard change is posting the guard.
Thank you this is very valuable

Amazing tips Sinead! Really great video. Unfortunatelly I just watched after my trip to London.... next time I know! 🙂
Thank you for this, I lived in London for many years yet never saw the Changing of the Guard because of the crowds. If only I’d known how easy it is! It was great to see the Household Cavalry too, my great-uncle served with them and was part of the Sovereign’s Escort at the Queen’s Coronation.
I think so many Londoners skip it for that reason, too! We are glad we got to share it with you :) Thanks again for watching and if you know of anyone else who might also enjoy these videos, please share us with them. We would really appreciate that! Thank you.
Cool
Sinead thank you so much this video was really special i enjoyed it so much it was almost like being there in person, what a wonderful spectacle makes you proud to be British.
It truly is an amazing spectacle will never tire of it

I saw the changing of the guards from our trip in 2013 .Fabulous
Sinead is the best! I was missing my marching bands because of covid lockdown. It's like I'm there. Thank you.
Sinead , the story of the "sobriety march" is absolutely true . You will also see guards officers doing a "sobriety march" when troops are paraded . The officers will march backwards and forwards in a straight line . This goes back to when officers got drunk in the officers mess , the "sobriety march" was to prove to troops that the officers were sober and fit to command them .
Thanks for the extra info! :)
Thank you so much for your fabulous tours and videos! So educational and interesting! These should be shown in classrooms so the children could get a real feel for history! Great work!! 👍👍❤️
So glad you're enjoying our work, Jeanie :)
Ppp

Thank you Gina for watching
Sinead
This is a shout out to those watching Sinead videos… I just finished a tour of London and most specially the Changing of Guard and i want to say Sinead was right on target with her recommended self tours and location and times for the changing of the guard (St. James Wellington Barracks Buckingham Palace.). I followed her recommendation with times, locations and turns and i was right on target. I got some wonderful photos in the exact same location that Sinead mentioned in her video…. You can not got wrong with her recommendation. I also followed other videos of hers during my stay and i can say the same…. By the way the luncheon visit to Sky Garden Restaurant was a perfect way to end my visit to the City of London. Well done Sinead… well done.
Thanks for the support and your feedback, Alfonso!
Amazing🎉❤! Loved it! Keep up the great tours!
We will! :)
Watching Sinead. again love these videos. love Sinead if I ever go to London I would ask Sinead to take us round Watched a lot of these videos so far just love the way she tells us all about the places she takes us to I’m in my 80s now so dont think I will ever go back there the only time we have been to London was to go on London Eye it was beautiful to goon and I don’t like going on things like that but I really enjoyed it love to see the guards as I love our royal family always have Thank you Sinead you are great xx

Thanks to you last week my family were able to see exactly what you recommended Sinead! Thank you for your outstanding videos!
I'm so glad!
Sinead
Thank you very much for this guidance, I would not have enjoyed the changing of the guard today as much as I did without this guidance and I am truly grateful. The downside from my experience today... A few tour groups have watched your videos and are now copying your instructions exactly. The lines were 3-4 deep today at most stops and the Palace was closed due to set up for the Jubilee which may have caused other areas to be so crowded. I was expecting 20% of the crowds today based on your experience in the video. Saying all this, I would follow these instructions again and again as this was the best possible experience. Thank you.
Yes, you are right about the parts of the Palace causing crowds elsewhere. Once they've taken it all down, the Mall should be less crowded again :)
That's amazing MARCHING WITH THE GUARDS.THANK YOU❤❤❤❤❤
Love the ceremony x
Another fabulous tour, so informative and fun with all the insider knowledge. Thank you so much for your hard work, even though you make it look so easy. A natural…

The Horse Guards are saluting the colours being carried by the footguards.
That would be more precise, yes.
I enjoyed this tour SINEAD. I loved hearing your laugh when you saw one of the guards slip.
Ahhhh he had a great recovery though 👍
Behind the scenes Sinead indulges in a bit of Schadenfreude from time to time :).
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on RUclips! I live in the US and am of British and Irish descent. Too old to travel, but I truly am enjoying 6our tours! Thanks!
