THANKYOU FOR THE VIEW OF PRINCESS DIANA'S MEMORIAL AT KENSINGTON PALACE.I LIVE IN THE U.S. AND MAY NEVER GET TO ENGLAND SO THIS WAS SO SPECIAL FOR ME TO SEE.THANKYOU .

As an American, this is such a cool tour. I don't know if I'll ever get to see these places but I'm obsessed with the culture

my absolute favorite tour guide. Sinead is so enjoyable to listen to and very good at showing and explaining everything.

Beautiful….it must be amazing, living in a Country with so much history … I love my Country,the United States 🇺🇸 but, of course, our history is not ancient ….Thank you, for this marvelous tour ❤️

Love that name Sinead ! Probably because all the Sineads seem to be gorgeous ! Frankly, I'd get depressed too if I had to live in Kensington Palace. Its history is fascinating,but that drab decor would put years on me !

As as child living in West Kensington in the 50s, my friends and I often used to visit Kensington Palace and at that time there was the part that was known as the Kensington Palace Museum in the Palace. It was a wonderful place for us youngsters and I remember it had the most extensive exhibits of the royal doll houses, many of them, which were fascinating to post-war kids like me who had very little. They also had costume displays under glass of course and at one time I remember they exhibited Princess Margaret's Wedding Dress. They also had interactive displays and I particularly remember one of the Great Fire of London where you pressed a button and it lit up with imaginary flames. On a Sunday morning the round pond would have lucky kids and enthusiasts sailing their boats and large scale models of steamships which would often stop working and their owners would have to paddle out to retrieve them. We could only afford a jam jar and little fishing net and would catch tiddlers. There was also the "fairy tree" which was a knarled old tree which had faries and elves and creatures carved into it and it was always exciting when the faded figures got a new coat of paint and were given a new lease of life. If you search on The Elfin Oak, Kensington Gardens you can see it is still there. It is now behind a protective cage but in my day you could touch it. We also loved to run through the leafy arches around the sunken garden (which didn't look as manicured is it does today and had a mysterious air about it, looking a bit abandoned). And then, of course, we would go to all the Museums in Exhibition Road and would marvel at things like the magic door that would open as you approached it which was such a novelty then but is now taken for granted on many stores and entrances. I could ramble on and on but it was a magical world for us youngsters and all free, just costing a few pennies on the bus to be transported to such delights. Yes London was a great place to grow up in and I miss it, having settled for a quiet life on the South Coast for my twilight years.

I saw Kensington Palace in Nov 2017 when they had all of Diana's famous dresses on display. It was so magical. I so hope I can return one day!

Thank you so much Sinead! How beautiful! I truly wish Diana was here with us. Her light is missed ❤

I can’t imagine princess Margaret with her sleeves rolled up and her gloves on even though some people said she was a bit of a scrubber. Kensington Palace absolutely stunning and to me that will always be the home of princess Diana. Another fabulous tour from Sinead thank you so much 🙏.

Another fantastic tour. Thanks Sinead!

I really love this vlogger because she brings us to the beautiful places where it is impossible for us to visit and travel because of the distance and travel expenses. This is a marvelous tour, thank you. Keep vlogging and May GOD bless you abundantly for your passion.🙏❤️

I loved Princess Diana she was lovely I did see once just after they got married they came to Sheffield were we lived for a few years she was beautiful never forget seeing her Thank you again for your lovely videos love to go round with you Take care hope to see you again soon xx

I amazed how much I like this.. you talk like im on your arm.. I understand every word and you move thru ...love it

Excellent tour we will visit October 2023

Thankyou so much Sinead. This means the world to me. ❤

Wonderful Tour. I have never seen this amount of detail of Kensington Palace before, as well as the surrounding gardens. Thank you.

Yay! No boring breakfast today!!! Loved it. Thank you Sinead. 💚🙋🏻‍♀️

Senead; another great watch, thank you so much. You have such a way of making a good day ever better, your narration is so enjoyable. Why do so many people on the sidewalks of London stare at their phones and not take in the amazing city sights? Thanks again.....

Those gardens are my ideal. Plenty of room to breathe and stunning views.

Speaking of rock stars, you are one and I really admire you

Would like to add That Queen Victoria had a terrible childhood here, her Mother made her wear Holly round her neck so as to keep her head up at all times. Her Nanny was more like a Mother, but when Victoria got Married her Nanny could not let go. She did not get on with ALBERT, so with a sad heart, Victoria told her that she was sending her on a holiday back to Germany for a short break. Victoria was heart brocken. She also moved her Mother to other quarters. The first thing that Victoria did when she announced Queen, was to move to Buckingham Palace, Victoria was the first Monarch to live in Buckinham Palace. (Just a little bit of trivia) Did you know that the MABLE ARCH was once the entrance to Buckingham Palace, It was removed because it was not wide enough for the Royal Coach to go through. (Enough for now)

Such a beautiful tour Sinead!! I would love to see more of Kensington Palace when they finally open up the parts that you didn’t get to go through. Such incredible history as always. Thank you so much. You did a wonderful job as always! From a much appreciative Californian 💜🤟🏻🍀😎🇺🇸🇺🇦🕊

Would you ever consider doing a tour of Kew Gardens??? I love all the tours you do but some of my favorite tours of yours are all the parks in London that you have done. I absolutely love the beauty of all the parks there. Thank you for doing the amazing work that you do Sinead

What a wonderfull walkway

I absolutely love watching all of your tours i watched this one while getting ready for my Great Aunt funeral. It was my comfort. Keep up thw amazing work Sinead and company

Lovely! Siena’s, your beautiful anecdotal notes are amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed this and will watch it over and over. Thank you for your beautiful work.

Thank You. I lived in Stafford Terrace in the 60's. Now in Sydney, Australia. Love walking ARROUND London with you🇦🇺🐨🦘

Thank you so much for the Beautiful Tour Of Kensington Palace, lots of interesting History! It always bring tears to my eyes anything that is to do with Princes Diana She was so Beautiful The People Princes Will Never Be For Gotten!!!!! The People's Princes! 🌹♥

Diana died 25 years ago, we have a whole generation that have been born since she was laid to rest.

This was thoroughly enjoyable. I visited the palace in 2017 and had forgotten much ... and I learned even more thanks to your great knowledge.

Beautiful tour, this was the highlight of my first trip to London in 2005. At the time there was an exhibit of court dress with an audio tour that was amazing. I was delighted to go up the Kings stairway and see the other parts of this magnificent palace. Apt 1A was part of the tour, only a few rooms which were empty except for photos of how Princess Margaret and her husband used them. I had tea and cake at the Orangery. Diana's dress were also on display and included in the admission. I will always remember this experience as it was well worth the price of admission.

Oh how I would love to visit London !

Sinead you are the best!

I LOVE all the Free Tours by Foot tours, especially the ones that include the Royal family. I totally agree with you, I remember I was getting ready for work when on the news they announced that Princess Diana had died. Once it registered , my heart broke for her boys. Your England and your tours of Ireland are amazing.

Sinead, thank you for this interesting tour! Couple of pieces of trivia: Queen Mary (wife of George V) was born in the same room at Kensington as Victoria. Also, the German female doctor that was in attendance at Victoria's birth also attended at the birth of Prince Albert 3 months later 😊

Hi it is nice to see you again this week Thank you for all your hard work This is very interesting building I did not know it was open to the public London Ontario Canada

I heard the queen is not moving back into Buckingham. So sad. She has been a true blessing

Great tour, one of the few I haven’t watched on mute. ;) Personally, I don’t care for the post of the Diana statue. I think it fails to have movement that she exhibited even at rest. And the grip on the children is just creepy, with one unfortunate soul lagging behind. I loved the rooms you video picked and your narrative. Thanks for posting.

What a wonderfully historic area! Thank you for the very interesting tour.

So happy i found this channel!

Absolutely loved this tour, thank you so much, it was lovely!!

thank you love the walk. being disabled from America. would never be able to experience it other than through your eyes. thanks again. can now mark that off my bucket list.

I like the trellises that arch over the walkway, makes it look like a tunnel of greenery.

Thank you for a fantastic video use to walk past that palace every day to look after some one who lives in that area 2x day and that park I used to seat in every day. Much love to you and your team x

My lovely Sinead. Anywhere you guide I'll be sure to follow. So happy to see how fast your channel has grown although not at all surprised.

I was here about 3-4 years ago. I had a choice between going to Tower of London or Kensington Palace and I chose the latter because the former gave me the creeps when I got there. So I went to Kensington Palace instead because I had to go home the next day.

Another fabulous tour, thank you Sinead. I love it when a new tour of yours pops up! Sorry I missed your love, I’ll have to tune on for the next one with a glass of gin or 2!

Thank you for such a wonderful tour. I always enjoy your tours particularly. My birthday is February

I have been there and I loved to be in your country. You are a very good historian and I really like you channel when ever I come to London I always stay in Kensington area, I usually buy loads of clothes and other items I send them home ahead of me. Great video

What we saw was nice. Loved the garden and the statue of Di. Happy birthday your majesty. Look after yourself. Would have liked to see more. Come back in spring and I would love to see Ccovebtry Gardens. I loved the artworks and explanations of the designer.

Well done this was very interesting.😍😍

Thankyou so much, You are a wonderful natural guide . John { Australia).

Brilliant video again Sinead, I've always wanted to visit this palace but never made it.

Thank's from the South of Germany
