The Royal Mews is worth a visit for a few reasons, the first being that you can stand and stare at the impressive "golden coach" from just a few feet away, and the second is that it is still a working stable and has lots of trivia and appeal in that regard. This was one of the few spots in... more

Well worth the trip, if you love horses and are into all things royal. The coaches, horses, and stables are beautifully cared for, and the tour is very interesting (take the tour with a live tour guide rather than the audio tour if you have the opportunity, especially if you like to ask questions). We took this tour as part... more

It is a small museum just at the back of Buckingham Palace depicting the horse carriages used by the monarchy. I couple of carriages are indeed quite nice. Well worth the 30 - 45 minutes, you spent there. more

Excellent. Very short and sweet guided tour. Well worth it. Very informative and interesting. Does not take long at all. Close to Buckingham Palace and the Queens Gallery. Do yourself a favour and have a look at least and if you have a little time take the guided tour. more

This is a nice interesting museum. This is the Royal stables and is a city with in the city. The people who work for the Royal Mews live and work with in the compound. All of the Royal Coaches are kept here. I did not realize that the crown has its own coach. The Coronation Coach is unbelievable. This is... more
