Why spend time and money traveling to Windsor Castle if you don't even have time to see the State Apartments and St. George's Chapel? Half of our time at Windsor Castle was waiting in a line to gain entry. I don't feel that rush of the visit at…”

Our tour guide was nice, but not very engaging. While sitting in traffic, it would have been nice to hear more history or stories to occupy time. We use Viator quite a bit and was disappointed with this tour.”
