Inside, the scale of the Palace is beautifully balanced by the intricate detail and delicacy of the carvings, the hand painted ceilings and the amazing porcelain collections, tapestries and paintings displayed in each room.

"On the day we visited the lifts were out of order and one of our party had mobility issues. The staff were great, they quickly found a wheelchair and a member of staff to push the wheelchair up and down the ramps on the stairs."
"If you like beautiful Historic Palaces, exquisite interiors, & wonderful gardens then I suggest you take the Blenheim Palace tour from London on Golden Tours. The Palace is a stately building that was the home of Winston Churchill and certainly is of Architectural Significance. Our tour guide, Ar..."ja, was knowledgeable, witty, accommodating & patient. From the Palace we moved on to lunch in Burford (The Cotswolds). There is an optional lunch with the tour but we opted for finding our own lunch spot. The last 2 stops were Bibury & Bourton on the Water, both a photographers delight. Our bus driver was also the best, it is quite a challenge to drive a bus on the small English country roads & the busy streets of London! Thanks to all at Golden Tours for a wonderful day. I would highly recommend this tour.
