Steeped in history all the way back to William the Conqueror!

Robert_M, Aug 2023

Celeste our tour guide was wonderful: She was personable, thoughtful, and full of interesting facts about everything both in the town of Windsor as well as Windsor Castle itself along with critical artifacts inside!

Barbara was the VIP of Windsor

JenAnderson, Jul 2023

Barbara regaled us with stories from ALL the royal events because she was invited and attended. We heard how the flag changed when the King was in attendance (he was that day), the queen’s funeral procession and Harry and Meaghan’s wedding as well as all the architectural changes over 1,000 years. A great tour!

Elizabeth was our tour...

Pamela_I, Jul 2023

Elizabeth was our tour guide and she was very nice and knowledgeable. We had 2 children and she was very patient with them.

Barbara

Gary_R, Jun 2023

Barbara is outstanding. A real Royal historian. 2 days of knowledge in 2 hours. Thank you Barbara. You are the best.

Highly recommend

Jennifer_K, May 2023

Barbara, our guide, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable of history and monarchy of Windsor Castle. We're very glad we chose a private tour as oppose to renting the head phones and walking by ourselves. We would have missed so much history and all the little nuances of the castle and its residents.

knowledgable guide; minimal wait times

James_C, Apr 2023

Barbara was very knowledgable! She was able to show us highlights with minimal wait times. We loved being able to see the dollhouse as well as the chapel. The only thing that could've topped it off would have been to see some of the royals!

We were incredibly...

Melanie_W, Feb 2023

We were incredibly impressed with our guide Barbara who is a fountain of knowledge and was pitch perfect for our tow boys. 100% would recommend.

Wonderful!

Brenda_M, Dec 2022

Our guide Barbara was very knowledgeable! She arrived promptly at the train station . Our train was running late and we stayed in contact along the way .

The best tour on our trip. Thank you Paul! Tour date 8/1/2022

Teresa_D, Aug 2022

Our guide Paul was the key to our most memorable experience. He had the answer and explanation to every question that I asked. We went through the castle with a perfect pace and details matching what we were seeing. He was a calm and well educated on not just the Royal Family but the history of the many Royals that came throughout Englands History.

Wonderful tour!

Judith_M, Jul 2022

So kind and knowledgeable was Elizabeth. She went out of her way to answer questions and meet our needs.

Terrific!

Matt_N, Jul 2022

Our guide Barbara was fantastic! She was so informed and made the experience so enjoyable for my two young daughters (11 and 91/2) and me!

Best tour and tour guide while in London area

Gaye_K, May 2022

Best tour I had by far in all the time we were in the London area. Danny our guide was knowledgeable and wonderful. Would definitely ask for him to guide you around Windsor or any London sites
