DESCRIPTION

Windsor is a world-famous town situated just west of London. Its origins date back over 1000 years, when William the Conqueror built Windsor Castle — the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world.

A 24-hour Hop-on Hop-off Open Top Bus Tour will ensure that you see all of the must-see sites around the royal town. Take a stroll down the Long Walk on your way to visit the Castle. Test your knowledge at Eton College, famous for educating many UK Prime Ministers and members of the Royal family. Visit the Holy Trinity Church, Frogmore House and Gardens or relax with afternoon tea on one of the many cobbled streets.

The audio-guide onboard will tell you all of the famous facts and hidden secrets about Windsor, enhancing your visit to this historical English town. You can hop on and off at any of the 10 stops. 

Windsor Castle
Overlooking the charming Windsor town, Windsor Castle was built in the 11th century by William the Conqueror and covers an area of 13 acres. Visit the castle to find out why royals have lived here for centuries and to see the lavish State Apartments, St George’s Chapel and the Changing of the Guard ceremony. 

River Cruise
Enjoy a delightful 40-minute cruise along the majestic River Thames, taking in wonderful and uninterrupted views of the historic Windsor Castle. Along the way, you’ll also see Eton College, which was attended by both Prince William and Harry, Mill House, Windsor Racecourse and the Brocas Meadows.
