Southampton to London Via Windsor Castle – Private Transfer

About this experience

This private transfer from Southampton Cruise Port to Central London includes a stop at Windsor Castle — an official residence of the British Monarchy for more than 900 years — with around 75 minutes built in to explore the State Apartments, St George's Chapel, and Windsor town. Admission to Windsor Castle is arranged separately from the transfer. Tickets can be booked via the Royal Collection Trust website in advance, or at the castle's box office on the day, subject to availability. This Southampton to London via Windsor Castle transfer suits cruise passengers who want to extend their trip with a genuine royal landmark stop, rather than heading straight back to the city after disembarking.
