Over the next few weeks, we'll be bringing you video of the places we'll be visiting on The Duke of Wellington Tour in September. Today, we begin with our first stop - London.
The Grosvenor Hotel, Victoria, above, where our journey begins.
Apsley House, the first stop on our tour, where our group will be given a private, guided tour of the property.
Afterwards, we'll visit the Wellington Arch.
We'll then proceed by private motor coach to the Tower of London, where we'll see the exhibition being mounted to illustrate the Duke of Wellington's influence upon the Tower in the capacities of both Constable of the Tower and Prime Minister. Here's a video that provides some background on the office of Constable, as well as Wellington's influence on the Tower. We'll also be meeting with the Ravenmaster of the Tower, who regularly posts amusing pictures of his charges on Twitter.
