The tour begins with a panoramic drive around Parliament Square to see Westminster Abbey, where many of our Kings, Queens, Statesmen, poets and writers are buried. See Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.

 

Enjoy a fascinating panoramic tour, seeing Trafalgar Square, Downing Street,  London's Theatre District and Piccadilly Circus.
Then to Buckingham Palace to see the colourful ceremony of the Changing of the Guard. We will then have a chance to enjoy lunch at a traditional London Pub.

 

This afternoon we visit Windsor Castle, the largest and oldest occupied Castle in the world. Its proud, strong walls dominate the delightful town that has grown around the castle over the years. Generations of Kings and Queens have conducted their business here and enjoyed its grounds, and you get a real sense of British history breathing through the walls of Windsor Castle, first founded by William the Conqueror a day’s march from London. You’ll see the lavishly decorated State Apartments containing priceless furniture in glorious colours and St George’s Chapel, home to the 14th Century Order of the Royal Garter, our senior chivalric order.

 

Departing Windsor we make our way to the magnificent Runnymede, where King John met his barons in 1215 and agreed to seal the Magna Carta that was to have a profound influence on rights and freedoms, not only in England, but across much of the civilised world.

We will also see the memorial to John F Kennedy on an acre of land given to America by the people of Britain.

 

* Occasionally there may not be a Changing of the Guard, on these occasions we will visit Horseguards Parade.
** Viewing at Windsor Castle is restricted on Sundays. On rare occasions the State Apartments may be closed and we will visit Queen Mary's Dolls House and St Georges Chapel.
