Along the way, your guide will bring London’s royal history to life, sharing tales of the monarchy, famous figures, and royal dramas to fully immerse you in this staple of British heritage.Your final stop is Kensington Palace. Before your self-guided tour of the royal residence, you'll indulge in a traditional afternoon tea at the palace’s Orangery, complete with scones, sandwiches, and more in a delightful baroque setting. Then you're off to explore this historic palace at your own pace with an audio guide to imagine life as a young Queen Victoria in these grand surroundings.
