Have you ever dreamed of walking through the halls of royal residences? Now, that dream can become a reality! This summer, Buckingham Palace invites you to explore its East Wing, featuring the famous balcony, through special guided tours available in July and August. While direct access to the balcony is restricted, you'll have the opportunity to wander through magnificent rooms adorned with royal artwork, immerse yourself in the historical tales of Queen Victoria's lineage, and conclude your visit with a view from the balcony that has witnessed countless historical moments.
Following extensive renovations, the East Wing is now open to visitors, marking a significant milestone in the ongoing efforts to enhance the palace's accessibility and visitor experience.
In addition, for the first time ever, Balmoral Castle, a cherished retreat for the Royal Family located in Scotland, is introducing guided tours of its interiors. These tours offer a unique chance to uncover the castle's history, its importance to the royals, and to step inside the private space where Queen Elizabeth II spent her final days.
