About this experience

You can visit the Tudor kitchens, the Privy Garden, the Chapel Royal, Hampton Court Palace garden, and the Great Hall. See how Henry VIII lavished money on fabulous tapestries and paintings, housed and fed the huge English court, and sought his succession of wives, political power, and domination over Rome.

Best London tour
We visited Hampton Court Palace together with the great tour guide Denis Khoroshko, and it was an amazing experience! Everything was perfectly organized, very interesting, and enjoyable. Denis shared so many fascinating stories and made the whole tour special for us. My mom loved it too! Highly recommend Denis Khoroshko if you are looking for a friendly, knowledgeable, and professional guide in London.

Finally saw the inside of Hampton Court!
Simon was a knowledgable tour guide. We wished we would have planned more time in the tour. Simon and our son were disappointed we could not visit the chapel due to another event. (There should be a way to view the chapel without disturbing an event.) The chapel was a priority "to see" on our visit.

Why this scores 41
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hampton court palace private tour from London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Hampton court palace private tour from London cost?
+
Prices start at $390 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hampton court palace private tour from London take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Hampton court palace private tour from London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 41 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hampton court palace private tour from London?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Hampton court palace private tour from London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hampton court palace private tour from London?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hampton court palace private tour from London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs, The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
