Overview

I love discussing England past & present with my guests while we journey to Windsor in my Mercedes. We can talk about the castle itself, or any other aspect of our long history.
As well as showing the treasures on view, I like to illustrate further aspects of the Castle's history by sharing materials I have prepared via my tablet, the excellent audio guides will take you through the State Rooms & St George Chapel where guiding is prohibited.
In St Georges Chapel you will encounter the wonder of England's finest gothic masterpiece, soak up the indefinable atmosphere that a space with so much history creates, stand on the tombs of some of the mightiest Kings of England and pay your respects to Queen Elizabeth ll, who is also buried there. After catching the changing of the guard we can wander along the north terrace at front where one can see Eton college across the Thames.
On our return to the car we will check out some of the more charming aspects of the old town of Windsor.

Windsor Castle

Spend the day roaming Windsor Castle, seat of the English monarchy for a millennium. Within it's mighty battlements stands the iconic round tower and ancient buildings housing some of the most stunning state rooms ever created. Windor contains many of the most extraordinary artifacts in England, from the musket ball that killed Lord Nelson to the tombs of great historical figures and some of the most beautiful paintings from the royal collection. Explore St Georges Chapel, church of the Knights of the Garter, a Royal Peculiar, governed by her Majesty and one of the most magnificent examples of Perpendicular Gothic ever created. Attend the changing of the foot guards, some of Britain's finest military units exhibiting precision drill in their ceremonial uniform. In St Georges Hall, examine the coats of arms of hundreds of knights, from the celebrated to the disgraced. Site of the births, marriages and burials of Kings and Queens for a thousand years, this is the very heart of England.

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
