    Full description

    Visit Blenheim Palace, the largest non-royal place in England, on a guided trip from Oxford with public transportation and entrance tickets included. Admire English Baroque architecture and delve into over 300 years of history in what has been a family home, mausoleum as well as a national monument.

    Start the tour from Oxford. Meet your guide and use public transportation to reach Woodstock, home to Blenheim Palace. Discover this World Heritage Site set within more than 2000 acres of parkland.

    Take a walk in the lush gardens, sprawling over more than 750 hectares, with an exquisite water garden along with formal gardens. Then, follow a tour of the grounds and learn about the aristocratic history of the Palace.

    Next, you can either enter the palace or head to the Churchill Destination Exhibit. Move onward from Blenheim Palace to Winston Churchill’s grave. With an introduction to the life of one of England’s most famous sons, a visit to his final resting place caps off a truly memorable trip.
