My question is, while at Westminster Abbey, will the tour guide take us to the place where you get a first rate viewing of the changing of the guard. Tauck has been known to add something special to tours.

We did this tour several years ago but no there was not changing of the guards. It was a tour of the interior of the abbey. Do you mean Buckingham Palace?
My question is because I was reading that with a good guide at Westminster, they show where the big weddings are held and would then take you to a first rate viewing of the changing of the guard at Buckingham palace within the Abbey. Just wondering.
With Tauck many things are possible. One reason it might not happen on your tour is that they don't have the ceremony every day of the week. I believe its M, W, F and Sun. The changing-guard.com website gives more details.
Thanks Claudia. We are there on a Thursday
Excuse my skepticism, but I don't think you could see the changing of the guard from Westminster Abbey. It's at least 1/2 mile away as the crow flies and there are tall-ish buildings in the way. Maybe you might get a glimpse from one of the towers, but it would still be a way off. In any case, Tauck wouldn't be having you climb the towers. Also, you'd have to time it just right, which seems unlikely.
