Windsor, Berkshire is famous for it's castle and royal weddings. It also happens to be the town that I grew up in, so this is my overview of all of the best things to do - from a local's perspective!
From Windsor Castle to Windsor Great Park, Legoland to Eton College - there's loads to see! It's very easy day trip from London, either by train or bus. The proximity of the main sights makes it very easy to explore.

SIGHTS FEATURED:
- Windsor Castle
The oldest and largest occupied castle in the world. It's Queen Elizabeth's preferred weekend residence and can you blame her? It is also the home of St George's Chapel, where Harry and Meghan's wedding ceremony is taking place.
- The River Thames
The Thames flows through the whole of the Royal Borough. French Brothers offer some really good boat tours, as do Duck Tours and some smaller motorboat and rowing boat companies. The best view of Windsor Castle is from the river.
- Legoland, Windsor
This is where I got my first ever job! With its exciting rides, shows, and LEGO building workshops, this is a perfect destination for the kids. Be careful though, tickets are expensive if you don't book in advance!
- Eton and Eton Collage
Home to the iconic Tudor-era boarding school that has produced 19 of the UK's prime ministers. Eton is a lot less crowded than Windsor and well worth a look.
- The Long Walk / Windsor Great Park
The most well-known image of Windsor Great Park is arguably the iconic view down the Long Walk, towards Windsor Castle at the far end. This tree-lined avenue stretches down towards the ancient fortress, illustrating the regal grandeur and Royal heritage of Windsor Great Park. Harry and Meghan will be driving down the Long Walk on their wedding day.
- Windsor and Eton Brewery
Fancy sampling locally brewed beer? Then look no further than Windsor and Eton Brewery. You can find them at 1 Vansittart Estate, Windsor SL4 1SE

The Windsor Castle looks pretty cool. I think I had been on a boat tour on River Thame....that's the same one that goes by the Big Ben, right? Legoland!! We have that in SoCal too!! Never heard of Eton. Windsor Park looks nice. Dang, the Long Walk!! LOL at I didn't walk it! My wife would love the breweries!
@OneShotAdventures
@OneShotAdventures 5 лет назад
Yep, it's the same river that runs right through London. The Legoland in Windsor is actually the second oldest of the parks, first one to be built outside of Denmark - fun fact haha

@myfamilytravelzone3936 6 лет назад
For your kids, Lego land would probably be No1 :), but all five places (Windsor castle, river Thames, Town of Eton, The Winsor great park, and the long walk, Brewery) would be worth to visit. Great quality as always!

Loved the video. Before moving to Canada, I spent the first 22 years of my life in the area {Englefield Green} with the Great park as my childhood playground . Later Windsor town was one of the great Riverside towns where I Misspent my youth. The Ricky-Tick club in its various incarnations was host to some of the best bands in the world ,as was the Windsor Jazz and Blues festival. The pubs past and present have always been great, although the rivalry between the local male population and the Military, for the affections of the local Debutantes, has always been a bit testy. I visit as often as I can and always recommend Windsor over Buckingham Palace as the place to see the Changing of the guard. Cheers !

Great video! I'd love to visit Windsor Castle at some point. Side note but I went to see the last Royal Wedding (William and Kate). I was quite far back in the crowd but I got to see the Queen and was really chuffed!
@OneShotAdventures
@OneShotAdventures 6 лет назад
Thank you! Wow, thats awesome. How early did you get there for?
@EllaMcKendrick
@EllaMcKendrick 6 лет назад
This was a while ago so I struggle to remember! We stayed in a flat in Westminster then I do remember getting up super early (didn't even have breakfast!) and walked about 5 minutes to opposite the church. We probably had one of the best view points to be fair but it still felt quite a way away. We got to see everyone arriving and leaving the church and they blasted the sound of the ceremony around the area.

@OneShotAdventures
@OneShotAdventures 5 лет назад
Go Travel On The Cheap ah yes, a lot of people tend to do Stonehenge and Windsor in the same day. The castle is the main draw for sure

April hadn't seen this one, so we watched it. When I went to London, I had so much fun in the local pubs, I would love to just do a drinking tour of the country! ;-) April took her kids to the Legoland in San Diego many years ago; they had a blast, but it is expensive
@OneShotAdventures
@OneShotAdventures 5 лет назад
English pubs make me feel very patriotic haha! A drinking tour is definitely a good idea, there's so many breweries you can check out.
@GoTravelOnTheCheap
@GoTravelOnTheCheap 5 лет назад
