Historic setting: The Household Cavalry Museum sits within Horse Guards in Whitehall, central London, one of the city’s most historic buildings. Dating from 1750, it is still the headquarters of the Household Division, in which the Household Cavalry has performed the Queen’s Life Guard in a daily ceremony that has remained broadly unchanged for over 350 years. The Household Cavalry: The Household Cavalry was formed in 1661 under the direct order of King Charles II and now consists of the two senior regiments of the British Army – The Life Guards and the Blues and Royals. We have two roles: as a mounted regiment (on horseback), we guard Her Majesty The Queen on ceremonial occasions in London and across the UK and are a key part of the Royal pageantry; as an operational regiment we serve around the world in armoured fighting vehicles. We currently have units deployed on active service in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our fighting capacity is matched by our strategic role in international peace keeping and humanitarian operations. Collections: Over the centuries we have amassed an outstanding collection of rare and unique treasures from ceremonial uniforms, royal standards and gallantry awards to musical instruments, horse furniture and silverware by Fabergé. Each exhibit has its own compelling story to tell and many are on display for the very first time. You can see two silver kettledrums given to the regiment in 1831 by William IV; the pistol ball that wounded Sir Robert Hill at Waterloo and the cork leg which belonged to the first Marquess of Anglesy, who, as the Earl of Uxbridge, lost his real one at Waterloo. Modern additions to the collection include Jacky Charlton’s football cap – he did his national service with the regiment and Sefton’s bridle – the horse that was injured in the 1982 Hyde Park bombings. Much of the collection has resulted from the close association that has existed between the Household Cavalry and Royalty. We have, after all, protected successive kings and queens from rebels, rioters and assassins for nearly 350 years. Working Stable Block: Visitors can gain a unique behind-the-scenes look at our working stable block. All the horses here are on duty and at different times of the day you will see something going on - you might see the horses being brought in, groomed, fed and watered, their hooves oiled and shoes checked, their saddles adjusted ready to go on guard or just see the stables themselves being cleaned. Both our horses and riders go through a rigorous and demanding training. In the Museum's many interactive and multimedia presentations, you will hear first hand accounts of what this training is like and the techniques our soldiers use to master their horses and complete the gruelling preparations for regimental inspections.
Depart Edinburgh at 09.30 and travel north to South Queensferry. The town is named after the 11th century Queen Margaret who dedicated her life to changing the social welfare of the people, particularly the church, earning her the title 'Saint Margaret of Scotland'. North of Edinburgh there were two very important churches - St Andrews and Dunfermline, but getting from Edinburgh across the wide Firth of Forth was difficult, so Queen Margaret provided a free ferry for pilgrims, hence 'Queen's Ferry'. The ferry remained in existence until the opening of the Forth Road Bridge in 1964 by the present Queen. From Queensferry we drive up and onto the Forth Road Bridge, giving us a great view across to one of Scotland's greatest man-made landmarks - the Forth Rail Bridge. At over a mile and a half (2300m) long, the bridge was completed in 1890, and until recently was the longest Cantilever bridge in the world. It is a true testament of Scottish engineering. Once over the bridge we enter the Kingdom of Fife. Bounded to the south by the wide Firth of Forth, to the north by the Firth of Tay and to the east by the North Sea the area was once a sub-kingdom of the old Pictish realm, a natural peninsula almost cut off from the rest of Scotland, and so remained semi-independent for longer than other parts. Central Fife used to be very poor, until the discovery of coal, while the towns and villages along its coastline were rich from all the trade across the North sea, causing King James VI to describe the area as a 'Beggar's mantle fringed with gold'. The golden fringe he referred to was the East Neuk (or nook, meaning corner), Fife's easternmost stretch of coastline and home to a string of picturesque villages each with its own distinctive character and charm. One of these, Lower Largo, is best known as the birthplace of Alexander Selkirk the real-life Robinson Crusoe and inspiration for Daniel Defoe's novel whilst neighbouring Earlsferry is said to be where MacDuff hid from Shakespeare's Macbeth. We stop in the traditional fishing village of Anstruther (known as 'Enster' locally) where you can check out its old cobbled streets and network of little alleyways and wynds or take a walk along the seafront to the harbour. From Anstruther we continue north to the medieval town of St Andrews. St Andrew is the patron Saint of Scotland, and according to legend his remains were washed up on the Fife coast. The shrine became a place of worship for Christian pilgrims from far and wide and the town developed into the religious capital of Scotland complete with a huge Norman Cathedral, the largest in all of Scotland. Founded in 1160 the Cathedral was devastated first by fire and later by zealous religious reformers but the ruins provide a fascinating insight into what it once must have been like. Today St Andrews attracts another type of pilgrim, being famous world-wide as the home of golf and the Mecca for all golfers - the 'Old Course'. The course, founded in 1754, is in beautiful condition and its emerald green grass contrasts with the golden sands of the beach nearby. St Andrews is also home to the oldest University in Scotland, at nearly 600 years old, and the third oldest in Britain behind Oxford and Cambridge. Also dating from this period is the town's once mighty castle which, perched on a rocky headland overhanging the sea, is a ruin with a violent and murderous past. Every street, every building is surrounded with history and we give you almost 3 hours to explore this amazing town. From St Andrews we take a pleasant drive through the rolling countryside of central Fife, with its small villages and patchwork of farms, to Falkland. Falkland Palace dominates this old village, and was one of the main residences of the old Royal family of Scotland, the Stewarts (Stuarts). Aside from the palace the village is simply one of the most beautiful in Scotland with an array of old cottages and narrow winding streets. You can take time to wander around the picturesque village or enjoy a drink in one of the village’s traditional pubs or tearooms. Leaving Falkland we cross the Lomond hills past Loch Leven, where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned by her Protestant nobility. And then it is straight back to Edinburgh.

Las visitas al museo y al tour suelen durar alrededor de dos horas y media, concretamente 90 minutos para el tour y una hora para el museo. Aspectos destacados del nuevo Museo: Fantástico Nuevo Cine Dentro de las paredes del nuevo Museo Wimbledon Lawn Tennis hay un cine destacable. El cine cuenta con una pantalla de 200° que sumerge al espectador en el mundo de los torneos, mostrando una película sobre la ciencia del tenis. El rodaje tuvo lugar en la pista central durante el torneo de 2005, concretamente en el enfrentamiento entre la rusa Maria Sharapova y la española Nuria Llagostera. Graham English Productions utilizó una plataforma panorámica especial que utiliza 5 cámaras al mismo tiempo, el resultado de la cual es una película que puede ser congelada y se hace girar alrededor del campo de acción en cualquier momento. Usando esta técnica, la película se centra en 20 aspectos diferentes del partido y muestra a los televidentes cómo los órganos y el equipamiento de los jugadores se ven afectados durante el transcurso de un partido de tenis profesional. El fantasma de McEnroe fue visto en el Nuevo Museo Al juntar una vieja técnica denominada 'El Fantasma de Pepper' con la nueva tecnología de proyección y de filmación, el museo es capaz de crear una emocionante manera de ver una escena del pasado de Wimbledon. En una recreación del vestidor de caballeros en la década de 1980, un holograma de John McEnroe aparece y le lleva a través de un recorrido por la zona más allá de los límites. McEnroe rememora viejos recuerdos sobre el vestuario, incluyendo la manera en que conoció a Jimmy Connors y cómo se preparaba psicológicamente a sí mismo para los partidos. Las Ropas de Wimbledon Las modas de Wimbledon siguen siendo un punto de atención e importancia en la historia del tenis y el nuevo Museo de Wimbledon albergará una amplia colección de atuendos. Podrá ver de todo, desde la ropa usada en la década de 1880 hasta los pantalones Dri-Fit 'piratas' de Rafael Nadal. También hay una exposición interactiva donde podrá notar la diferencia de peso entre la ropa masculina y femenina de 1884. Nueva Tecnología Extraordinaria Consolas interactivas con pantalla táctil están distribuidas a lo largo de los pasillos del museo. Estos puntos de acceso a la información forman parte de las nuevas y excitantes tecnologías que encontrará en el Museo. Otros equipamientos son la rueda de raquetas rotativa "Get a Grip"; el juego 'El Reactor' y un archivo de los grandes partidos en torneos pasados, todos lo cuales podrán ser disfrutados por los visitantes de cualquier edad. Tour Los visitantes también podrán disfrutar de un tour por los terrenos de juego, dirigido por los guías especialmente entrenados de Blue Badge, y tendrá acceso a las áreas restringidas que normalmente están cerradas al público. Se incluye: • Pista nº 1 • Los jardines (Henman Hill) • El Millennium Building • La sala de prensa • El estudio de televisión de la BBC (o la pista central, si los trabajos de construcción lo permiten) • Entrada al museo Horarios de visita: Varían al largo del año.
Are there any age restrictions? Children are welcome on the tour, but please bear in mind that some children have a limited attention span and therefore a 3 hour tour may not be appropriate for them. Parents know their children best and should assess the situation individually. Since there is a lot of standing and walking please consider this when deciding whether the tours are appropriate for your child. Also, the tours require a certain level of physical stamina. For our walking tours, we are on our feet for approximately 3 hours. How physically fit do I need to be to enjoy this tour? Tours walk at an easy pace and cover approximatley 1 mile of walking. Our tours are generally appropriate for all ages and fitness levels, but please use your best judgment. Is smoking allowed on the tour? The tours maintain a no-smoking policy. Does the tour guide accept gratuities? Gratuities are greatly appreciated, although not mandatory. Are cameras allowed on the tours? Yes! In fact, we strongly encourage participants to take photos during the tour. However, we do not allow video cameras or tape recorders.
