Hampton Court Palace - fascinating private walking tour with a qualified guide

Description

Hampton Court Palace, the home of England's most notorious king Henry VIII, has tales of ghosts, executions and his 6 wives!  Perfect if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of central London, Hampton Court has something to please all the family.  There are two palaces to look round, Henry VIII's built in the 1500s and a second palace built for William III at the end of the 1600s.  In addition to the two magnificent palaces, there are stunning gardens to look round and a chance to see the complicated game of real tennis in action!   Oh and of course, for the young and young at heart, there's the world famous Maze!

Tours last between 2-3 hours and start at 10.30 a.m..  The meeting place is outside the West Front Gatehouse.  The tour price is for the whole tour and is in addition to the palace entry fee.
