Gavin with a "G"

Fabulously Fun Tours!

Royal London with Gavin

"This was my second tour with Gavin, and it was, once again, excellent!
We were very lucky, as rehearsals were underway way for the King's ceremonial birthday, 'Trooping the Colour' and Gavin was able to take us to a number of different locations that ensured we got great views of the different footguards and military bands.
It was wonderful. Highly recommended!"

Kensington Palace

1/5

Kensington Palace is the official London residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales, Prince William and Princess Catherine.

It has been a favourite royal residence since the late 17th century when a small, suburban villa was extended and transformed by master architect Sir Christopher Wren. Queen Victoria grew up here, first met with her great love Prince Albert and learnt she had become Queen. More recently it was home to the late Diana, Princess of Wales and it is where her sons Prince William and Prince Harry spent much of their childhood.

An unmissable tour for fans of the British royal history!
