A totally private and exclusive guided showround with a Palace curator at Windsor Castle after it has closed to the public
Your showround takes place at the end of the day and as you are guided through the State Apartments in the evening light by a Royal curator or historian, you will enjoy famous masterpieces by Bruegel, Holbein, Rubens and Van Dyke. The showround includes a visit to the Great Kitchen, which is not open to visitors during the day and you'll see the amazing restoration work following the devastating fire in 1992. This very special experience finishes with a glass of champagne served in the China Museum. Your guide will keep his commentary light and will always include an overview of the history of the castle, the use of it as a working royal residence and home for The Queen, and will describe some of the key works of art, giving you a light-hearted précis geared towards interested, but not expert guests.
Following your showround you will enjoy a menu created by 3 Michelin Star Chef Heston Blumenthal at the Hind's Head Hotel in one of two beautiful private rooms with vaulted ceilings, which have been restored to their former 16th century glory.
