“This tour of three stops provides an opportunity for a very quick look at a number of important sites, but it doesn't give enough time to even grab a bite to eat. 11 1/2 hours and only time to even grab a sandwich on the run, if you are lucky, or if you skip seeing some of the attractions at the stop. Why spend time and money traveling to Windsor Castle if you don't even have time to see the State Apartments and St. George's Chapel? Half of our time at Windsor Castle was waiting in a line to gain entry. I don't feel that rush of the visit at…”
