Windsor Tourist Information Centre has commissioned a group of local Blue Badge guides, ourselves included, to provide regular walking tours on summer weekends to the general public. Those tours run every Saturday at 11.30am and Sunday at 2.30pm between 7th April and 2nd September 2012.

The walks last one hour and start at the Royal Windsor Information Centre. They give an essence of what life's like in this lovely town, a general history and answers to questions concerning our traditions and the town's relationship with the Royal family past and present.

The dates Debbie and Bobbie are guiding in 2012 are:

Sunday 8th April, Sunday 22nd April, Sunday 29th April, Saturday 12th May, Saturday 26th May, Sunday 10th June, Saturday 16th June.
