Your day will start with a guided tour of the magnificent State Rooms, led by one of our expert guides. The State Rooms provide the setting for official ceremonial occasions and are furnished with some of the greatest treasures from the Royal Collection, including paintings by Winterhalter, sculpture, fine porcelain and some of the finest English and French furniture in the world.

You will then be free to explore the garden and see some of its most famous features, such as the plane trees planted by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, before enjoying a picnic on the lawn with your family and friends. You can purchase delicious refreshments from one of the many food stalls dotted around the garden, or bring your own food and drink.

For those interested in taking a more in-depth look at the history and highlights of the garden, including the Rose Garden, summer house and wildflower meadow, guided tours are also available. These can be added to your basket when booking your ticket.

End the day by browsing for gifts in our shop or relaxing with your loved ones on the lawn, while enjoying views of the Palace.
