Boat trip to Hampton Court Palace from Kingston upon Thames, Surrey, England
This trip, from Turks Pier, by Kingston Bridge, at the back of John Lewis department store, takes about 35 minutes. The boat is the New Southern Belle, owned by Turks Launches. According to them, it's a Mississippi-style stern wheeler and brings a flavour of old New Orleans to the River Thames - although it was designed and built in Sunbury on Thames.
Hampton Court Palace was built in 1515 by Cardinal Wolesey and presented to King Henry VIII in 1529. This Tudor palace houses a large collection of orginal arms, armour, tapestries and fine paintings. It is famous for its gardens, maze and the Great Vine, planted in 1769.
Medieval Kings were crowned at Kingston and, more recently, it was voted 'Top Town' in the Guinness Guide to the best places to live in the UK.
The Thames winds and twists as it gets nearer to Hampton. There are swans, geese, ducks, coots and many rarer water birds, such as the fishing herons which can sometimes be seen among the willows and bushes along the natural embankments.
