Windsor Castle
Home of British Monarchs for almost a millennia, this is the brightest jewel of the Royal Collection Trust and final resting place of many kings and queens most recently that of Queen Elizabeth II.

Osborne House
Home of Queen Victoria & Prince Albert. The Tuscan style villa was the home of the Saxe-Coburg royal family for decades. The estate stretches to the sea where Queen Victoria’s bath carriage is located and in the summer Punch and Judy shows are still staged. The ornate gardens and Swiss Cottage are other attractions of the house. This tour includes ferry passage both ways between Southampton & the Isle of Wight by Red Funnel Ferries and also includes a visit to Shanklin Old Village. The whole tour including travel takes 8-10 hours.
Corfe Castle
One of the most popular National Trust sites in sunny Dorset. The story of the medieval castle and its occupants is fascinating and brought to life by the many audio recordings located across the site.
