GUIDED tours of Balmoral Castle are being offered up for the first time for the lofty price of £100 a ticket.
And it doesn’t look like it will be easy to get your hands on a ticket, as they will be limited to just 40 a day when tours run from July 1 to August 4.Specifically for the start of the tours, the King has ordered a giant thistle-themed maze for the grounds which people will be able to view – the second new royal maze in 300 years.
The fully-guided tour will include rooms that are used by the King and Queen when they stay there. There will be no ropes sectioning off parts of rooms or furniture, as it remains a royal home and is not being converted into a museum. The group also highlighted the tour costs nearly twice as much as the one at Warner Bros Studios - the UK's most expensive tourist attraction. Studio tour prices start from £53.50 for adults.
