The taxi eases off the M4 and the city's edge gives way to broad river meadows. In the span of a short ride you arrive at Windsor's compact high street: cobbled shops, flags snapping, and the castle rising above the town like a worked stone crown. Your driver-guide opens the door, offers bottled water, and maps a day around the Castle precincts and St George's Chapel — the kind of personal, paced visit that replaces the hurry of independent travel.
