From Thursday 9 July 2026, the doors of Buckingham Palace open to the public for the summer season, running right through to 27 September 2026. It offers a rare chance to step inside the 19 magnificent State Rooms, and it’s one of the most popular tourist attractions of the entire London summer, drawing huge numbers of visitors to Westminster every single day.
With crowds, queues and central London traffic all part of the experience, getting to the Palace comfortably and on time is half the battle. A pre-booked private transfer makes your royal day out feel effortless.
The Challenge of Visiting Buckingham Palace
The summer opening brings enormous footfall to one of London’s busiest districts:
- Westminster sees heavy tourist traffic throughout July, August and September.
- Timed entry tickets mean arriving late simply isn’t an option, with admission strictly to your booked slot.
- Public transport from outer London and the airports can be slow and crowded with luggage.
- Families with children, older visitors and overseas tourists value door-to-door convenience.
