Windsor & Eton Mystery Tour

Windsor & Eton CityExplorer® £89

Packing & Postage FREE*

 

 

The Windsor & Eton CityExplorer® Mystery Tour is great for visitors to Windsor - especially couples or families on a weekend break or day out, tourists or any small group of up to 5 people.

The Berkshire town of Windsor is best known for its iconic castle - the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world - where the Queen makes her home most weekends.

Beyond the castle the rich historical heritage continues down to the Thames and across to Eton on the opposite river bank - a two-centre combination offering lots of things for adults or children to see and do.

The Windsor & Eton mystery tour is a self-guided sightseeing travel guide with a twist that helps you explore what both Windsor and Eton have to offer.

The route you take depends on your answers to a set of clues, questions and puzzles around Windsor that can be tackled in any order.

There's no tour bus, no annoying headphones, no tour guide and no strangers to sit next to. Instead, we supply you with a map and a series of conundrums that send you on a journey of discovery of Windsor's past and present.

Your route could take you to see Windsor Castle and the changing of the guard, Queen Charlotte Street (the UKs shortest street!), the place where Shakespeare wrote the Merry Wives of Windsor, the Long Walk in leafy Windsor Great Park, Eton College (a private school that has educated royalty and prime ministers) and more - but what you actually end up seeing is up to your clue cracking and puzzle solving abilities!

Wherever you go, it's a fun way to get your bearings, enjoy some sightseeing, discover hidden corners, pick up interesting facts along the way and start to get a flavour of the history, architecture and people of Windsor.

The Windsor & Eton CityExplorer® Mystery Tour is set up ready for you to do independently. The mystery tour's unique flexible format means that you can choose where to start and finish and how long you want to take - so that it fits with your schedule, your other activities and where you're staying.
