The palace is breathtaking in its gilt and architecture and I enjoyed seeing it. I did not walk another mile to find the bus to Windsor Castle, however. That morning chose to rain heavily and I was already drenched so I chose to return to my room. This is not so much an "escorted tour" as an entry ticket to get the headset and walk through the rooms. Directions to the meetup spot were slim to none. In the pouring rain all participants were a bit frustrated to be moved out from under the only roof in the vicinity because of fire code. Understand fire code but still was frustrating. Again, the palace is gorgeous.
