Overview

Buckingham Palace is accessible in either a manual or power wheelchair. They have managed to make the rooms open to the public as accessible as possible and the staff are thoughtful and knowledgeable, I have visited three times, twice by car and if you telephone in advance you can park inside the Palace grounds. I have also wheeled up from Victoria station or you can take a short taxi ride. The price for a disabled visitor is reduced to £13 and you can take a carer for free. At the end of your visit you can convert your ticket into an annual pass (open from around 22mnd July to 1st October).

The rooms open to the public are accessible as is the outside covered café. If you wish to go on a garden tour there is an accessible buggy to take you around the grounds (book separately).
