The Anne Boleyn Experience 2020

17th - 21st May 2020

The Anne Boleyn Experience has proven extremely popular in 2018 and 2019 and so it's back again in 2020! 

This tour explores the life and death of the ill-fated second wife of Henry VIII and mother to Elizabeth I, Queen Anne Boleyn.

You will enjoy a private after hours tour of Hever Castle, a 3 course dinner in the Castle dining room, visit Hampton Court Palace and the Tower of London - a particularly poignant visit as it falls on the anniversary of her execution.
