Windsor Castle

Humphreys of Henley offers you one of the most memorable ways of experiencing the beautiful and historic destination of the Royal Borough of Windsor, with a private tour of the State Apartments at Windsor Castle with an expert guide. Your tour will take you on a journey through 1,000 years of royal history; discover how William the Conqueror's wooden castle was rebuilt by Edward III as a stone fortress with magnificent apartments, how Charles II set out to rival his cousin's, Louis XIV, Versailles, while George IV gilled the rooms with outstanding works of art and gave the Castle its famous skyline.

Your guide will meet you and will bring the Castle alive as they share the stories and the history of the Queen's favourite residence. We will be delighted to reserve a table for lunch or afternoon tea in one of the lovely restaurants in the town, if you would like to enjoy lunch in Windsor after your tour.

We are back in the US, and yes, we had a FABULOUS time! All of our drivers and guides were friendly and prompt. Our guides were very knowledgeable, very personable, and just terrific (we especially enjoyed our Windsor guide). Even our two teenagers didn’t get bored! I think we picked all of the right sites to see, and for the right lengths of time. We had perfect weather every day as well. All in all, everything was wonderful, and we appreciate all of your help in designing the tours and time frames. Overall, the dining was fabulous as well. So again, thank you for all of your help…I think it was our favourite family trip that we’ve taken, and we made some fabulous memories!

The Windsor Castle experience was an unforgettable one for my daughter and I. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with the extremely knowledgable Amanda who seemed to know every intricate detail about the castle. Seemingly tailored specifically to ourselves, the tour was enlightening and very professional. Humphrey’s ensured every aspect of our trip was well organised. Wouldn’t hesitate to use for further trips in the area.
