Your early morning start will begin with a drive to Windsor Castle for a 3-hour visit to the world's oldest occupied castle.
Photo: londondrum.comHighlights include the sumptuous State Apartments, the beautiful Waterloo Chamber with its pictures of Wellington and his generals, and St. George's Hall where they hold the big banquets for visiting Heads of State - decorated with heraldic shields and silver suits of armour.
Photo: viator.comYou'll also get to see inside St. George's Chapel where Prince Harry married Meghan, and where many of England's most famous monarchs are buried including Henry VIII, Charles II and the late Queen Elizabeth II.

The last part of the tour will take you into the White Drawing Room and past the statues and sculptures in the Marble Hall, and through the Bow Room onto the veranda overlooking the garden, where you can enjoy a cup of Earl Grey tea by the lawn.
