Your day begins with a day trip to Hampton Court Palace, where lies the spectacular favorite residence of Henry VIII, built in 1514. You will explore the impressive maze and beautiful gardens, see the astronomical clock, and visit Henry VIII’s tennis court.
This historic royal palace boasts a rich history dating back to the medieval period. It became a grand Tudor palace under King Henry VIII, who expanded and renovated the palace extensively, making it one of his principal residences and a center of Tudor court life. In the late 17th century, William III and Mary II enlisted Sir Christopher Wren to update parts of the palace in the Baroque style.

When William III and Mary II (1689-1702) took the throne in 1689, they commissioned Sir Christopher Wren to build an elegant new baroque palace. Later, Georgian kings and princes occupied the splendid interiors. When the royals left in 1737, impoverished 'grace and favour' aristocrats moved in.
