We start this walk by making our way into the most beautiful section of Hyde Park, to see the Italian Gardens and a fine Peter Pan statue. Then it’s onto the lovely shimmering Round Pond complete with birdlife, before passing by spectacular Kensington Palace. Then it all goes very Prince Albert, with his huge memorial, the Albert Hall and the site of the Great Exhibition (the Crystal Palace) which he helped organise. Then we see where the SAS ended a famous siege, before heading across Rotten Row to see where the Great Exhibition’s Crystal Palace once stood. We finish in Kensington’s amazing museum area. We can drop you outside the V&A, which has probably the most beautiful cafe in London, or at the nearby tube station.
