Day 2: This morning we head to the rather special and flagship garden of the Royal Horticultural Society at Wisley, and see what makes this one of the greatest in the world. It captures the imaginations of visitors, showcasing the largest plant collection seen anywhere in the world. A range of fabulous gardens that can be seen in their summer glory and a stunning Glasshouse make this a horticultural paradise.

Visitors are offered an introductory exhibition, a guide through Tudor kitchens, and the opportunity to see the state apartments and the Wolsey and Georgian rooms. One of the most impressive sights is the Great Hall, England’s last and greatest medieval hall, decorated with sumptuous tapestries. Outside you can try not to get lost in the world’s most famous maze or visit the Privy garden restored to its 1702 glory

Crowned by stunning Windsor Castle, the largest and oldest inhabited castle in the world, and official residence of His Majesty the King, the wonderful town of Windsor has a rich mix of history, culture, and heritage.
