Windsor castle half day trip from london with lunch at harrods

Follow the footsteps of British royalty with a tour of Windsor Castle, just over an hour’s drive from London. Your half-day trip gives you an inside look at the many areas of Windsor Castle, home to Queen Elizabeth II, including St George’s Chapel and the sumptuous State Apartments. Finish back in London with a quintessential English lunch at the famous Harrods department store.

After a complimentary pickup from your central London hotel, you’ll be off to Windsor Castle, where more than 900 years of royal history awaits! From William the Conqueror all the way through to the current Queen,
successive monarchs have lived here and left their mark on what is now one of
the largest continuously occupied castles in the world. Tour Windsor Castle independently, taking time to see St George’s Chapel and the formal State Apartments in all their lavish glory.

Windsor itself is a pretty town full of traditional shops and historic pubs. It was in one of these pubs that Shakespeare was said to have written his play The Merry Widows of Windsor.

After spending your morning in Windsor, enjoy your journey back through the English countryside on a comfortable, air-conditioned coach. Your tour ends in Knightsbridge (central London), at the famous Harrods department store. Harrods is nothing if not decadent, and your meal will be no exception – you’ll enjoy a delicious one-course meal in the store’s elegant Georgian Restaurant. Your half-day trip ends after lunch, but you can stay at Harrods and walk off your meal by browsing the popular food stalls and designer clothing.
