If British history’s your thing, Westminster Abbey is unmissable. This stunning 700-year-old church is the burial site of kings, queens, poets, and more—and it even hosted William and Kate’s wedding. Jeremy Irons narrates the audio guide, and kids under five go free. Book a tour to learn even more.
Is it family-friendly?
Yes, under 5s go free with an adult, and they’ve got family trails to make it fun – get the kids to grab one on the way in.
Teen Tip: Point out the celeb gravestones – yes, even Shakespeare’s pals are here. Teens who like poetry, history, or drama will love tracing their heroes.
Do they have any special events?
Yes – look out for Saturday and school holiday activities.
Can we bring buggies?
Yes, but be prepared for a few steps.
Are ther baby-changing facilities?
Yes – essentials sorted.
How long does it take to visit?
A couple of hours is enough unless you’ve got a budding historian in tow. And there’s loads of seating if you need to take a breather.
Can we get food there?
Yes, enjoy a snack or meal at the Cellarium Café.
Is it good for photos?
Not inside, sadly – but loads of snap-worthy stuff outside.
