Discover the Palace of Westminster this winter
5 December 2024
Take the opportunity this holiday season to explore the fascinating history, art and architecture of the Palace of Westminster, home of UK Parliament. Our tours will take you on a journey through some of the most iconic rooms in the Palace, from Westminster Hall and Central Lobby to the rather festively coloured Chambers of the House of Commons and House of Lords. Tours are available to book now for Saturdays and selected weekdays during parliamentary recess.
You can opt for a guided tour led by one of our expert guides who will take you on a journey through the most iconic rooms on the parliamentary estate. Your guide will share their first-hand knowledge of what happens at UK Parliament and there will be time for your questions along the way.
If you prefer to explore on your own, you can choose a self-guided audio tour. It includes a multimedia device with your choice of 10 languages. The device will help you find your way and comes with video and audio content. Plus, you can spend more time in the areas that interest you most! It's great for young explorers too, with a device that includes fun and engaging learning content for children.
If you’ve worked up a thirst, you can make a stop at the Jubilee Café (situated just off Westminster Hall) which serves a range of hot and cold snacks and drinks. You can also grab a memento of your visit from the Jubilee shop which is next to the café.
