Anyone for tea at Buckingham Palace?
Starting from £25, tickets for the summer state rooms at the Queen’s London residence have now gone on sale on KM Tickets.
The state rooms at the heart of Buckingham Palace provide the setting for ceremonial occasions and official entertaining with the most recent being US President Donald Trump during his official three-day visit.
They are where the Queen welcomes guests from all walks of life and now the doors to all 20 of those state rooms will soon open to the public between Saturday, July 20 and Sunday, September 29.
Visitors will be able to guess where Her Majesty has her tea or from which door she usually makes her entrance.

The rooms predominantly reflect the taste of George IV, who commissioned the architect John Nash to transform what had previously been known as Buckingham House into a Grand Palace.
Today, they are furnished with many great treasures from the Royal Collection.
Visitors can see paintings by Vermeer and Canaletto, sculpture by Canova, exquisite Sevres porcelain and some of the finest English and French furniture in the world, with many works still in the historic settings for which they were originally acquired.
At the end of a visit to the State Rooms, the popular Garden Café is the perfect place for groups to gather and enjoy views of the lake across the Palace lawn.
