Day Tour to Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace

I will meet you at your central London hotel and we will take the overground train to the wonderful 'two palaces in one' Hampton Court Palace where we will see Henry VIII's splendid Tudor Palace including its old kitchens, the Great Hall and a replica of the king's crown, before touring the 17th Century Baroque Palace built by Sir Christopher Wren for King William and Queen Mary. We will also explore the glorious gardens that border the River Thames. At Windsor Castle, we will visit the magnificent State Rooms, where banquets and royal ceremonies have been held for 100s of years, and St George's Chapel, the site of royal ceremonies and the burial place of many monarchs from King Henry VIII to Queen Elizabeth II. We will stop en route for coffee, lunch, tea, and pub breaks as preferred. [Please note Windsor Castle is not open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and as a working royal residence may be closed on other dates depending on events taking place there].
