Experience the grandeur of Britain's royal heritage with the ChauffeurAi's The Crown Tour. Let our luxurious chauffeur service transport you through the regal settings and picturesque filming locations of Netflix's acclaimed series, The Crown. With ChauffeurAi, you'll journey through time, experiencing firsthand the elegance and majesty that has defined the reign of Queen Elizabeth II.
Belvoir Castle, a stunning 19th-century marvel, offers breathtaking views both inside and out. The castle’s interior rooms were used in The Crown to replicate Windsor Castle, allowing visitors to step into the world of Queen Elizabeth II as they traverse the castle’s lavishly decorated galleries and rooms.
Experience the glamour of the 1940s at the Lyceum Theatre, a West End theatre located in the City of Westminster. The theatre, which dates back to 1765, is prominently featured in The Crown, hosting Claire Foy (Queen Elizabeth) and Matt Smith (Prince Phillip) in their timeless roles.
Ely Cathedral, a noble Norman structure in the historic riverside city of Ely, Cambridgeshire, serves as a stand-in for Westminster Abbey on Queen Elizabeth’s wedding day. The cathedral’s historical significance and architectural beauty make it a must-visit location.
Situated on the Thames in Greenwich, the Old Royal Naval College is a popular filming location, and for The Crown, it recreated the exterior of Buckingham Palace. Its rich history and stunning architecture make it an unmissable stop on our tour.
Although Wrotham Park isn’t open to the public, its neo-Palladian house, completed in 1754, remains a sight to behold. It’s available for private functions, banquets, and parties, and its care and charge remain in the hands of the Byng family.
Our journey concludes at Knebworth House, a magnificent building in the Hertfordshire countryside that served as a location in The Crown. Crowned with turrets and domes and adorned with gargoyles, it’s no surprise that Knebworth House is a favourite among filmmakers.
In January 2023, the crew from The Crown were spotted at Winchester Cathedral, setting it up to prepare to film scenes for Princess Diana’s funeral. The gothic church was taking the place of Westminster Abbey, where the late Princess’s funeral took place in 1997.
Winchester Cathedral has been used in previous seasons of The Crown, notably standing in for St Paul’s Cathedral for the funeral of Prime Minister Winston Churchill (John Lithgow) as well as the 1981 wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer.
The Crown fans can visit Winchester Cathedral, and we can arrange a personal guided tour of this world famous cathedral along with the other historic sites in the city.
