Overview

This private transfer from Central London to Southampton Cruise Port includes a stop at Highclere Castle — seat of the Earls of Carnarvon for over 300 years and the filming location for Downton Abbey — with around 75 minutes built in to explore the grounds before continuing to the port. Beyond its television fame, the 5th Earl of Carnarvon financed Howard Carter's 1922 discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb; the castle now houses a permanent Egyptian Exhibition in its cellars. This London to Southampton via Highclere Castle transfer suits Downton Abbey fans and history enthusiasts. Note that Highclere Castle has limited public opening days — check the castle's visiting calendar before booking.
