 Windsor Castle, Windsor, England

Windsor Castle is the perfect day trip for anyone visiting London. This hour long drive will make you feel as though you’ve just gone back hundreds of years to a time of princesses and knights! The castle was built in the 11th century and, believe it or not, is still in use as a weekend home for the queen to this day. When the queen isn’t visiting, the castle is open to the public where you can witness the changing of the guard or attend one of the many free events.
