The town of Windsor is synonymous with its castle, around which it grew up, and is deeply intertwined with the British crown. On this self-guided walking tour, you'll have a unique chance to explore this historic town like a local and see everyday life against the magnificent backdrop of its royal heritage.
As we stand in the shadow of the statue, I’ll tell you why Queen Victoria had to propose to Prince Albert when they got engaged. You’ll go on to stroll through Windsor’s charming streets while I share tales and insights about its rich history and notable landmarks
At the Long Walk, the picturesque, tree-lined avenue that runs from Windsor Castle to the Copper Horse Statue in Windsor Great Park, I’ll tell you how the avenue was inspired by Versailles. Next, you’ll visit Windsor Guildhall, which played host to some famous weddings, including Sir Elton John’s nuptials. The tour finishes with a walk alongside the River Thames to Windsor Bridge.
