    Thanks for watching another travel guide everyone! Anybody visited Windsor before?
    I'm very excited about the next video, back to the cinematic short film style...

    The Windsor Castle looks pretty cool. I think I had been on a boat tour on River Thame....that's the same one that goes by the Big Ben, right? Legoland!! We have that in SoCal too!! Never heard of Eton. Windsor Park looks nice. Dang, the Long Walk!! LOL at I didn't walk it! My wife would love the breweries!

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, it's the same river that runs right through London. The Legoland in Windsor is actually the second oldest of the parks, first one to be built outside of Denmark - fun fact haha

    I visited Windsor in 1998. It was amazing. I can’t believe it’s been two decades!!!! I need to go back

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It probably hasn't changed too much, but still very busy now because of Royal Wedding fever!

  • @TheWorldnUs
    @TheWorldnUs 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My goodness that is a long walk! I don't blame you for not doing it that day.

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha luckily I had tested out my gimbal a few months before so I could use the old footage!

  • @EllaMcKendrick
    @EllaMcKendrick 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video! I'd love to visit Windsor Castle at some point. Side note but I went to see the last Royal Wedding (William and Kate). I was quite far back in the crowd but I got to see the Queen and was really chuffed!

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! Wow, thats awesome. How early did you get there for?

    • @EllaMcKendrick
      @EllaMcKendrick 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      This was a while ago so I struggle to remember! We stayed in a flat in Westminster then I do remember getting up super early (didn't even have breakfast!) and walked about 5 minutes to opposite the church. We probably had one of the best view points to be fair but it still felt quite a way away. We got to see everyone arriving and leaving the church and they blasted the sound of the ceremony around the area.

    We visited Windsor during Christmas! Absolutely loved it! The castle is amazing and the pubs are friendly.

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wanderful Revolution the pubs are amazing at Christmas! I just wish there was more a Christmas market in town

  • @myfamilytravelzone3936
    @myfamilytravelzone3936 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    For your kids, Lego land would probably be No1 :), but all five places (Windsor castle, river Thames, Town of Eton, The Winsor great park, and the long walk, Brewery) would be worth to visit. Great quality as always!

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      MY FAMILY TRAVEL ZONE thank you! I think some adults quite enjoy Legoland too (sometimes more than the kids haha)

  • @PuriandSue
    @PuriandSue 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @MamitagAdventures 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Awesome video! Windsor Castle is a beautiful castle to visit!! We didn't get to see all the other places, so thank you for sharing. You can't go wrong with all the Pubs too. So much to choose! Keep up the great contents my friend!

    • @OneShotAdventures

  • @travelpockets
    @travelpockets 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I never understood the obsession with the royal family but ever since I watched The Crown on Netflix, I'm obsessed! These are great suggestions on what to do around Windsor. You're a wonderful host!

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Travel Pockets haha I can definitely relate to that! The Crown is so good

  • @TheJourneyest2016

    Everyone has been raving about the royal wedding all the activities. Great idea to do a video featuring where the wedding would be. Love the footage well done

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, I did see a huge jump in views when the wedding was going on!

    Wow. I missed so much when I went to Windsor 5 years ago. The castle took up must of my day and I wanted to see Stonehenge. I cant wait until I get back to England.

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Go Travel On The Cheap ah yes, a lot of people tend to do Stonehenge and Windsor in the same day. The castle is the main draw for sure

    • @GoTravelOnTheCheap

    @SkyelinesandSunsets 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Windsor is your home town? We love it there. Try to have a few days there every year. It's probably our favourite place in the UK. Another excellent video by the way. Always think your videos are so professional....it's like watching a TV travel series...but better!

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Skyelines and Sunsets ah that's awesome, you must have seen most of these spots then? Thank you!

    @GoYvon 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Perfect timing to upload the video :) The Long Walk looked really cool from up high. Imagine going over that path with your horse, years ago... Must be so cool to live in this area as a kid, pretending to be a knight :)

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      GoYvon I did love it here as a kid! Thank you for watching

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Adventure Everywhere haha I had to put that in there! Awesome that you've been to Windsor before, did you do a day trip from London?

    • @AdventureEverywhere
      @AdventureEverywhere 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Actually we did...well more specifically from Surrey where we were staying with friends. It's in our "How to do an English Literary tour" vid, but I don't think we got much of it into that video.

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Adventure Everywhere oh awesome! I used to live in Surrey too (granted it is quite a big county)

    Loved the video. Before moving to Canada, I spent the first 22 years of my life in the area {Englefield Green} with the Great park as my childhood playground . Later Windsor town was one of the great Riverside towns where I Misspent my youth. The Ricky-Tick club in its various incarnations was host to some of the best bands in the world ,as was the Windsor Jazz and Blues festival. The pubs past and present have always been great, although the rivalry between the local male population and the Military, for the affections of the local Debutantes, has always been a bit testy. I visit as often as I can and always recommend Windsor over Buckingham Palace as the place to see the Changing of the guard. Cheers !

    April hadn't seen this one, so we watched it. When I went to London, I had so much fun in the local pubs, I would love to just do a drinking tour of the country! ;-) April took her kids to the Legoland in San Diego many years ago; they had a blast, but it is expensive

    • @OneShotAdventures
      @OneShotAdventures  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      English pubs make me feel very patriotic haha! A drinking tour is definitely a good idea, there's so many breweries you can check out.

    • @GoTravelOnTheCheap
      @GoTravelOnTheCheap 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I can see that! :-) We should plan a collab and do the tour together!

    • @OneShotAdventures

    • @OneShotAdventures

      It's true, Legoland gets insanely busy in the summertime... I used to dread those days when I worked there haha
