What can I see?

  • Windsor Castle, the largest occupied castle in the world
  • Eton College, the school attended by Prince William and Prince Harry

Windsor Castle is the largest occupied castle in the world and an official residence of The Queen. It contains a royal palace with wonderful State Apartments used for ceremonies and a magnificent chapel housing the tombs of ten sovereigns of England. The town of Eton on the opposite banks of the River Thames from the castle is connected by a footbridge. It is a quaint historic place famous for its public school. Its most recent famous pupils? Princes William & Harry!

Plan for the day

On arrival in Windsor the first stop is the castle. However, if the weather is good, we will first take a stroll into Windsor Great Park where there are magnificent views of the Castle. After an introductory talk about the castle and its place in British history, you will have free time to explore its many attractions. But there is more to see than just the castle. Take a stroll out into Windsor Great Park for great views of the castle, wander the narrow shopping streets of Windsor town, relax by the banks of the River Thames which flows between the towns of Windsor and Eton, or sample British upper class society in the antique shops and the famous college at Eton.
