Eton is a historic town in the shadow of Windsor Castle, but is perhaps better known for its prestigious boys’ school. On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll hear the centuries of fascinating history that have shaped this remarkable small town and its world-famous college.

The tour starts at Windsor Bridge and guides you through Eton’s storied past and vibrant present. As you walk up the High Street, you’ll pass ancient inns and distinguished tailors that have made Eton’s distinctive uniform for generations. You’ll see the grounds of Eton College, founded by King Henry VI in 1440, where princes, prime ministers, and poets have studied for nearly six centuries.

The tour dips through the College area, along peaceful playing fields, and back to the bustling High Street. On your way back to Windsor Bridge, you’ll discover how this small town of just 4,500 residents has preserved its historic character while maintaining deep connections to royalty, literature, and sporting traditions.
