Audio guides are well made. The visit lasts 1h15 and is perfectly adapted to children from primary school. The rooms are well furnished and in very good condition. A beautiful dive into English history.

Difficulty obtaining QR code. As tickets were not obtained through palace box office they were unable to help pull up information. This has never happened before using Viator

If you're in the Kensington/Knightbridge/Paddington area, Kensington Palace is worth the trip. The audio guide is simple to use and gave some interesting and enjoyable anecdotes on the various royal family members highlighted. My favourite Historic Royal Palaces still remains Hampton Court Palace but I'm glad I visited here.

Tour on your own but you have a headphone to guide you through the experience. It’s walking tour at your own pace. Not crowded and there are guides who can answer questions.
Great tour
