Stop At: Buckingham Palace, Spur Road, London SW1A 1AA England

Buckingham Palace serves as the official London residence of His Majesty The King, and is one of the few remaining working royal palaces in the world today.
Each summer when the Palace is not being used in its official capacity, visitors can enjoy the 19 magnificent State Rooms that provide the setting for ceremonial occasions and official entertaining by members of the Royal Family. Visitors to the Summer Opening of Buckingham Palace will see the White Drawing Room, perhaps the most beautiful of all the State Rooms with its spectacular crystal chandelier, the Music Room, where guests are presented on the occasion of a State Visit, and the Throne Room, which was the setting for the formal photographs following the wedding of Their Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess of Wales.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Windsor Castle, Castle Hill, Windsor SL4 1PD England

Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world. It has been the family home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years and is today one of the official residences of His Majesty The King.

Occupying over 10.5 hectares, the Castle offers a varied day out for visitors, including a visit to the magnificent State Apartments and St George's Chapel. The Castle's State Apartments are furnished with some of the finest works from the Royal Collection, reflecting the changing tastes of the Castle's royal occupants, particularly those of Charles II and George IV. Many of the works of art are still in the historic settings for which they were first collected or commissioned by the kings and queens who have lived at Windsor.

Visitors can take a self-guided tour of the Castle with a free multimedia tour. From October to March, visitors can also walk through the sumptuous Semi-State Apartments, which served as the private rooms of George IV in the 19th century.

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: St. George's Chapel, Castle Hill, Windsor England

At St George's Chapel, you will have the opportunity to visit the site where Prince Harry
married Ms Meghan Markle in 2018 to millions of viewers around the world. The chapel is
also the final resting place of departed kings and queens from England's illustrious history,
including Henry VIII and Charles I.
If His Majesty is in Windsor during your visit, you may even be fortunate enough to see the
Royal Standard flying on the flagpole of the Round Tower.

We expected a live person to narrate the experience. We were given headsets at both Buckingham Palace and Windsor. Basically just on your own. A lot of money for a bus ride to Windsor, all available via train service. Leslie was lackluster and a bit rude. Spoke a bit about the royals on the bus . All info know to most humans who have a TV. Very disappointing for $300 per couple. There are much better options!
