Join us for a trip to the largest and most spectacular tulip festival in the UK
Home to King Henry VIII, the stunning grounds of Hampton Court Palace plays host to over 120,000 tulips of more than 60 different varieties, some of which are rare and historic.
The Tulip festival is a feast for the eyes and senses with spring bursting into life throughout the 60 acre royal gardens. With fountains, floating tulip vases and stunning courtyards to wander, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy this spring treat.
Hampton Court Palace has much to offer notwithstanding the fantastic Tulip festival.
This masterpiece of Tudor and Baroque architecture, dating back to the early 1500's, also houses the magnificent Great Hall , designed to impress and proclaim Henry's power, the colourful and rich Sir Christopher Wren modelled Chapel Royal , the 300 year old Maze and the 400 year old Royal Tennis Courts to name but a few!
