I have a question for the Brits, is the royal family just a tourist attraction now, or do they still hold any slight political power?

Dejure yes, Defacto not really.

"Though the ultimate executive authority over the government is still formally by and through the monarch's royal prerogative, these powers may only be used according to laws enacted in Parliament and, in practice, within the constraints of convention and precedent." WIKIPEDIA

Royal and colonial institutions do still act as soft power in Commonwealth countries, such as in Australia 1975, when Governor-General Sir John Kerr dismissed the democratically elected Labour Party Gough Whitlam in co-ordination with the Queen and the opposition Liberal party.

what @Mogelix said

also, the monarch gives royal assent to any laws passed by the house of parliament and lords
which essentially means she just says yes or no to the bill

but she's never said no and probably never will
