After meeting your knowledgable guide outside Queensway tube station you'll take an interesting 50-minute walk through Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, stopping to admire the beautiful Italian Gardens with its statues and splashing fountains, and learning all about the Royal Family's links to the park as you go.
After working up a thirst you'll sit down in the Kensington Palace Pavilion (opposite Princess Diana's favourite garden) for an hour-long afternoon tea, with a selection of sandwiches, cakes and English teas.
After the tea has ended you can take a stroll around the outside of the palace and admire its ornamental gardens.
