Hello -- our family of 6 -- parents, grand parents and 10 and 13 year old will arrive at London Gatwick at 9 am on a Saturday. We cannot check into our Kensington area flat until 4 pm, but can drop our bags.
I thought about going out to Kensington Palace -- purchasing advance tickets so no wait -- after dropping our bags. We could tour and have tea at the Orangery -- get right into it with the grandkids. We will be tired, but no real options for sleeping unless we get rooms for a few hours which will add to cost.
What mode of transportation would you suggest to drop off our luggage (near Earl's Court tube station)? And what would be a safe time to schedule entry into the palace? All assuming the plane is on time.
Thoughts???
Thanks!!!
Lynne
