Buckingham Palace
A special timed entry with multimedia tour ensures that you receive a breathtaking visit to King Charles III’s official home. This is also and the official residence of Britain’s sovereigns since 1837

With sweeping landscaped gardens and the turreted Round Tower, it’s easy to see why the largest occupied castle in the world is the King’s favourite weekend residence
Enjoy a fascinating through–the–keyhole peek at the lavish State Apartments, home to priceless artworks by Leonardo da Vinci and Rembrandt
Visit St. George’s Chapel, the atmospheric final resting place of Henry VIII and other monarchs
