    For the comments asking why we referred to the Queen, it’s probably because we still haven’t got over the fact that she’s gone. She was the Queen our entire lives and it still doesn’t feel real that she is not here anymore. Sorry for the confusion.

    Queen Boomer, the "Beefeaters" or Yeoman of the Guard at the Tower of London, don't just wear a costume and give tours. They are all ex-servicemen and women and are employed to protect the Tower and Crown Jewels. It's not a costume BUT their official uniform, which has remained unchanged for centuries.😀

    The big palaces/castles in London are: Buckingham Palace, Tower of London (where the Crown Jewels are), Windsor Castle (King's weekend residence and actually outside London), Kensington Palace (London residence for William and Kate) and finally Hampton Court Palace (where King Henry 8th lived). I've visited them all except Kensington Palace and I enjoyed every visit, so I don't really understand this guy's bad review, but it was funny. Admittedly I haven't been to Buckingham Palace since 2008, so the experience might have got worse. Part of the reason for the lack of facilities is it's a working palace for most of the year, so they haven't really fully set it up for visitors, but there's not really any excuse now it's been an annual thing since 1993! Windsor Castle is much better in that it has lots of facilities and isn't so crowded.

    I've never had the urge to pay for a tour of Buckingham Palace, it's famous for being the least favourite residence of the Royal Family, The Queen mainly used it as an office but rarely stayed overnight. The King lives a stones throw away at Clarence House, but there are plans for him to move permanently to Buckingham Palace after renovations.

    Good point about the Acropolis in Athens - we were advised to arrive for the opening time and go straight to the temples at the top, which results in you getting the main attraction to yourself (more or less) for a good half hour. As for the museum on the approach, someone wryly pointed out that the best part of the Acropolis site are in the British Museum, so no need to pay to visit the one in Athens.

    My daughter and 8 year old grandson travelled down to London from Scotland for a few days early August. They had booked tickets for the Buckingham Palace tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. No complaints. It was while the Scottish schools were still on holiday but the English school holidays hadn't started yet so maybe it wouldn't be quite so busy. They had no problems getting seated at the cafe either. I would say any major tourist attraction that is only open to the public for two months every year is never going to be quiet.
    I would hate to be behind some of these people with these huge back packs. They pay no attention to who might be behind them and just about knock them unconscious every time they move.
    The 'no photography' rule in these places is usually for security reasons, which I think is perfectly understandable.

  • @HankD13
    @HankD13 9 місяців тому +15

    Feel sorry for Mark - he should have gone with me. Been twice (for free - as my better half is a professional Blue Badge guide). Knowledge of how it works, peak times etc - avoided tour groups, queues and crowds. I had a great time on each occasion, found the staff great and everything well sign posted. Timing is everything. It is a working Royal Palace and security is very thorough and very restrictive - back packs have been used for explosive devices and photography is just a part of target recognisance - most sensitive places don't allow photography. They only opened it to the public to help fund the restoration of Windsor Castle - and they probably should stop it. It really is a tourist trap, not for locals - and it really is a fantastic money earner and a way of parting tourists from their money. Tower of London (also a palace) has the crown jewels (that is worth it!). Windsor Castle and the Royal Apartments is also a great visit. "The Crown" does NOT film inside the Palace!

    • @4Kandlez
      @4Kandlez 9 місяців тому +2

      But they allow you to keep the backpack as long as you carry it in your hand? I very much doubt you'd be allowed to enter the palace carrying any type of bag that hadn't been checked by the very thorough security. I would guess the real reason is that wearing a back pack it's very easy to knock things over or bump into things. Photography is not allowed because people can make money from selling/publishing photographs of areas not authorised by the palace, basically the palace has copyright on all of its imagery.

    • @HankD13
      @HankD13 8 місяців тому +1

      @@4Kandlez All true. Trouble is with backpacks they do get in the way - and each time I have been searched it is pretty cursory. Photography allowed has people using flashes, dawdling and clogging it up - timed entry limits entry numbers, but they need people to keep moving through. Like I said, my two visits, one quite recent, had no issues at all.

    The Tower of London is definitely worth a visit. It may cost about 30 dollars each but it's worth it, visitors usually spend three hours in there, there's such a lot to see. A thousand years of history and tradition. Like Queen Boomer says, getting a guided tour by one of the 'Beefeater' guards is the best way to experience it. Quick tip, like Disneyland, go in as soon as they open and get in the queue for the Crown Jewels as soon as you enter, that way you'll avoid a 45 minute queue later in the day.

    I suppose it's a kind of vengeance - in my pre-disability days I got trollied + did a wee in that big fountain out the front (just sat in it on a scorching hot day + "release"), think the guards ignored the sitting bit thinking I was cooling off ;)
    Cheers or listening to my TED talk lol
    Tower of London for the jewels I think + if you "do" London, google UK school term times + visit in the Autumn - it'll be a lot less busy in geneeral.
    Museums > Royal stuff. Tower Bridge has some genuinely awesomely helpful staff. St Paul's was also pretty good. London museums are generally free/donation, but regardless when you go - EARLY. I'd definitely do Oxford over London for chilled out versus what you get to actually see "easily".

One of which is Megan Clawson, an alumnus of the school I was a pupil at. She's done several UA-cam and Instagram videos about her life living in the Tower. Other royal residences are Clarence House, Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace and St James' Palace. Hampton Court Palace, a favourite of Henry VIII, is now the headquarters of the charity Historic Royal Palaces.

      As the royal family where away at the time, and as such the royal standard wasn't up so it couldn't be flown at half mast.
      So after they started flying the Union Flag when the royal family are away so the Palace can fly a flag at half mast at times of national mourning.

    Not surprised. They only started tours after it caught fire and Lizzie had to justify the repair bill. I can well imagine there's resentment at being reduced to a tourist attraction by the staff if they different duties when it's closed to the public.
    The Royals don't pay their staff well at all either.

    In terms of the flag, if the Royal Standard is flying, the King is present at the Palace, if the Union Flag/Jack is flying then they aren't.

    I do believe that the no-wearing-of-backpacks 'house rule', is so that visitors don't turn around, and either bump into other people, or more importantly for the palace, do a 180 degree and connect with a 1660s Vermeer or 1623 Rubens.

    Sad to say but the Queen is no longer there regardless of the flags so I agree with you - corrected something sent at work today which said Her Majesty's when describing one of the tax services - With the flags if the Union Jack / Flag is flying - ie the British or UK flag as you may know it as the monarch is not present at Buckingham palace. When the King (now) arrives at Buckingham Palace (or any other palace) the flag flying is lowered and one known as the Royal Standard is flown - you may have seen it (also on the cars) hard to describe, but divided into 4 - top left quarter 3 yellow lions on a red background, top right a single red lion on a yellow background - bottom left a yellow harp on a blue background - bottom right repeat of the top left - if you watched the Queen's funeral it was the one that draped Her Majesty's coffin.

    To be fair, we went AFTER the Mark Felton review. Maybe they were ordered to shape up! If so, I may have Mr. Felton to thank for it..

    I've never been inside Buckingham Palace as it always seemed to be expensive. Apparently it was only opened to the public in order to pay for the fire repairs to Windsor Castle.

    All Crown Jewels are kept in the Jewel House of the Tower of London ( by Tower Bridge)
    The Tower of London WAS once classed as a palace as well as a prison and still holds the remains of one of Henry VIII wives (Anne Boleyn)
    And where many executions took place throughout the ages.
    It’s open to the public and is probably far more interesting to walk around than Buckingham Palace, with the added advantage that there are plenty of ‘Shitters’ (restrooms to Americans) available for your convenience should you suddenly feel the need to park your breakfast while on your visit.

    The Commonwealth flag means the Monarchs in either of the residences, the Union Jack meaning they aren't, I think when the Monarch passed over the Commonwealth flag does get lowered but only for a very short time (as there's always a Monarch) and the Union Jack is flown at half mast (hence when Diana died was some debate about Buckingham Palace lowering the Union Jack at half mast as the other places around the country had but they hadn't, as the Monarch was at Balmoral).
    Infact when transporting Diana's coffin, there was a huge debate about covering hers with the Commonwealth Flag (the Monarchs Standard), as she'd been divorced from Charles.
    With their shield is whats at the centre the focal point of the Monarchs Coat of Arms is the commonwealth representation, with the belt going around it (the Garter or the order of the Garter since Edward III, with the motto over it from French meaning Shamed Be He Who Thinks Evil of It).
    The Monarchs Motto as well, being Dieu Et Mon Droit (Latin meaning God As My Right, since Henry VIII).
