High tea amidst Royal Gardens

Begin your royal experience with a guided walk through Kensington Gardens, passing Queen Victoria's commissioned landscapes. Your guide leads you to the Sunken Garden, home to the newly installed Princess Diana statue surrounded by her favorite white roses and forget-me-nots. Learn about the Palace's role as home to young Princes William and Harry, and now their own children. After taking in the beauty of the gardens, you'll discover the iconic Peter Pan Statue, a beloved landmark that has captured the hearts of children and adults alike.

Indulge in a regal experience

Finally, you'll be treated to a delightful afternoon tea at the Orangery, a charming building near Diana's garden. Take your seat overlooking manicured gardens. Your traditional service includes four classic sandwiches: egg mayonnaise with cress, smoked salmon with cream cheese, roast ham with English mustard, and cucumber with fresh mint. Warm Welsh butter scones follow, served with clotted cream and local preserves, alongside a selection of seasonal pastries.
