Description:
Best known for the castle, there is, in fact, much more to Windsor. At Royal Windsor Racecourse there’s Monday evening horseracing – where you can arrive in style by river taxi.
The ever-popular Legoland, with regular bus services to the park from the two railway stations (complete with money-saving deals including admission, rail travel and shuttle buses are available), is the perfect day trip for children up to 12.
And this year the Royal Windsor Wheel – a mini London Eye – is back, offering a panoramic view 200ft up above Alexandra Gardens.
