Itinerary

1. Windsor Castle
We visit the amazing Windsor Castle, the family home to British Kings & Queens for over 1,000 years. The size of the 13 acre Castle is breathtaking, & is the largest & oldest occupied Castle in the world & it is where Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II chose to spend most of her time & called home. You might even time your visit when the new King Charles III is in residence! Look at the flag flying from the Castle’s Round Tower; if it’s the Royal Standard The King will be there too.
Duration: 180 mins
2. Thames River
We then walk alongside the River Thames watching the boats & wildlife, including “The King’s Swans” and cross the bridge which separates Windsor from Eton College, Prince William’s former private school.
Duration: 20 mins

We tour the small town of Windsor immediately upon leaving the Castle. We tour the quaint streets & shops (including the smallest street in the UK). We also see The Long Walk entrance to the Castle & a view towards Frogmore, where Prince Harry & Megan once resided!

PLUS Either on our way to, or returning from Windsor, we visit the JF Kennedy & Magna Carta memorials. The JFK memorial sits on an acre of land designated to the USA from the UK to remember one of the greatest leaders of modern times.
