5.00Our guide, Barbara Ann, was a real delight. Was so kind to bring us both water and took the time to learn a bit about us before the tour. She was very informative and felt more walking with a friend than a tour guide. Oh, the tea was a delight too. The Orangery was very pretty.
Tea at Kensington Palace? Yes, Please!

5.00We didn’t go with our guide because we already had tickets to Kensington Palace so we just walked over to the Orangery for our high tea experience. Barbara (High Tea tour guide) came over and introduced herself and explained the high tea experience to us, she was so friendly. Thank you !
A traditional British experience not to be missed!

5.00Astrid was a wealth of knowledge about Kensington Gardens and the palace. She was incredibly kind, interesting and was able to infuse the cultural experience with the historical context making it a memorable event. Her love for the gardens was evident!
