You definitely have to go on this tour! The paintings are beyond belief. When listening to the audio, you're amazed at what details and facts are mentioned in the various paintings. I highly recommend this tour/experience!

I liked most of the paintings but was disappointed in the number and type. I felt that the best of the collection of Buckingham Palace remains in Buckingham Palace. However, by going there I saw some interesting architecture and the staff of the gallery and of the cafe are very kind, helpful and polite.
