Time to learn about two very British traditions in one morning: get your hands on hard to come by tickets into Buckingham Palace and take afternoon tea like royalty at a luxury hotel.
HIGHLIGHTS:
* Sneak a peek into the life of the Royal Family with a tour of Buckingham Palace
* Top off a morning’s sightseeing with afternoon tea
Learn all about the Royal Family in limited tours of Buckingham Palace, with no queues and no fuss, as it opens its doors for only two months of the year.
Meet your guide before heading into the official residence of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, where with the help of the official palace audio guide, you’ll catch a rare and much coveted glimpse into the world of the Royals. See how they live in lavish apartments decorated with sparkling chandeliers, sumptuous furnishings as well as some of the world’s finest French and English furniture. Breathtakingly beautiful surroundings rich in history and traditions, Buckingham Palace is a must on everybody’s list and with this tour you get the unique chance of pre-booked guaranteed entry.
After a morning learning all about royal traditions, we take you to a nearby luxury hotel for a truly English tradition. Your guide will explain the origins and heritage behind this quintessentially English activity before its time to rest your feet and delight in the delicious cakes and pastries lavishly laid out before your eyes. Scrumptious scones served with decadent jam and clotted cream, as well as sandwiches and cakes complemented with a pot of fresh tea, all await you for afternoon tea.
