Westminister Abbey

I will be visiting London in Aug an plan to visit all the "usual
suspects" (Kensington Palace, Buckingham Palace, Tower of London
etc). My question is, should we buy tickets to Westminister Abbey in
advance if so where do we buy them. Or do we need advance tickets at
all? Last year when we toured Italy & France alot of the sites had
huge lines but if one bought their tickets in advance they did not
have to wait in the queues (lines for those of us from across the
pond). Our time is limited so we would like to speed things up if
at all possible.

Go to Evensong and get in free! (Whether or not you believe in God, you can
enjoy the music.)

Make sure you take the tour given by the vergers, it's excellent even
though there might be an extra fee attached.
