The whole entry process went smoothly. You first had to queue for your entry time and then it went quickly. Everywhere there were only nice staff who were happy to help or provide information. The highlight for us was the mass in St. George's Chapel. Unfortunately, we spent too long in the Dollhouse, so we didn't have much time left to visit the chapel. That's why we definitely have to come back!

The booking system was easy to understand and do. Windsor Castle is a wonderful place to visit for the young and old. It's a beautiful place to visit.

When I booked on your site I did not see anywhere that the tickets I bought could not include a visit to the chapel as it would be closed! It's an integral part of the Windsor tour. I probably would have chosen the next day rather than Sunday! I don't remember that tickets without the chapel were cheaper either! We were 4 people... we're from Canada so seeing Windsor again won't be tomorrow! That's why I'm not giving it a high rating. I did, however, enjoy the visit to the castle.

Ticket purchase was easy to handle and redeem. We enjoyed the castle and St. George's Chapel. Skipped the doll house because the queue was long. The village was nice.

Your Experience

Pick up your handy multimedia guide and get started on a fascinating journey through 1,000 years of royal history through the Castle occupying over 10.5 hectares. At the magnificent State Apartments, you can see some of the finest works from the Royal Collection. These works seamlessly reflect the changing tastes of the Castle's royal occupants, especially those of Charles II and George IV. Along with masterpieces from the likes of Holbein, Rubens, and Van Dyck, you can admire some exquisite specimens of English and French furniture.

Head to St. George’s Chapel from there and see the final resting place of former monarchs like Henry VIII and Jane Seymour, Queen Mary, Charles I, Edward VII, and Queen Alexandra. It is one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in England, so don't miss the chance to admire its stone ceiling and ornate walls.

The Semi-State Apartments are the private apartments created for George IV. From Oct to Mar, you will be able to feast your eyes on some of the most elaborately decorated rooms in the Castle with richly colored wallpaper and golden furniture. Generously woven into the tour are the treats to the senses, from the music of St George’s Chapel choir to the chimes of the famous collection of clocks.

Don't forget to drop by for refreshments at the Undercroft Café. Built in 2020, the Café occupies one of the oldest spaces of the Castle.
