Nearly 1,000 Years of Royal History
The King’s weekend home — and one of the most extraordinary buildings on earth
Windsor has been linked to the British monarchy for nearly a thousand years — since William the Conqueror first built a fortification here on a chalk ridge above the Thames in the 1070s. Today it is the world’s oldest and largest inhabited castle, the official weekend residence of the King, who very much enjoys spending time here, and one of the most visited royal palaces on earth.
We collect you from your central London hotel and drive you directly to Windsor in comfort. The tour is leisurely paced and entirely bespoke — covering everything you want to see in the time available, with no rushing and no crowds to contend with.

Inside the Walls
Art, history, faith — and the extraordinary story of a thousand years of monarchy
Inside Windsor Castle’s walls lies a world of almost incomprehensible richness. The State Apartments contain paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens and Van Dyck, porcelain collections of extraordinary value, and room after room of gilded grandeur that speaks to centuries of royal patronage and power.
St George’s Chapel is one of the most beautiful Gothic buildings in England — the spiritual home of the Order of the Garter, the oldest order of chivalry in the world. Ten monarchs are buried here, including our beloved Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, whose tombs have become a place of quiet pilgrimage for visitors from around the world.
👑 Windsor is the King’s weekend home — and sightings of members of the Royal Family are not as rare as you might think. Keep your eyes open!
