About this tour

After the walk, explore the Churchill War Rooms at your own pace with an audio guide; your walking-tour guide does not accompany you inside. The Changing of the Guard may be visible on eligible 10 AM tours, though the British Army can change its schedule without notice.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.36 from 14 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in London
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.5.
