After a tour of the castle, grab a bite to eat at the Undercroft Café where you can treat your tastebuds to ice-cream made with milk from the herd of Jersey cows at the Windsor Royal Farms. Time your visit to watch the Changing of the Guard ceremony that takes place on Thursdays and Saturdays. Visit rct.uk
