Tour Eton College for free with a London Pass

Eton College

Get a broader experience of the cultural heritage of London courtesy of the London Pass – holders get free entrance and a guided tour around the historical site of Eton College.

Eton College is one of the most exclusive educational establishments in the world. Surprising, perhaps, when you consider its humble roots. King Henry VI set up the college in 1440 for the purposes of educating only seventy of the poorest scholars in the country!

During the course of your free sightseeing tour of the school you can visit the Cloisters, the oldest classroom in the College and the College Chapel and experience how the first students would have lived and worked here.

This Eton tourist attraction is famous for sticking closely to its historical roots and traditions - scholars are still to be seen sporting the original School Dress of black tailcoats and pin striped trousers. With 19 former British Prime Ministers numbered among the former pupils, there are few other educational establishments in the UK as steeped in tradition and history as Eton College.

The small town of Eton in England is surrounded by over 5000 acres of Crown Land making it one of the most beautiful places in the Middle Thames – it’s certainly worth taking time to enjoy these beautiful grounds and wander round the town of Eton. Attractions nearby also include Windsor Castle, where as a London Pass holder, you are entitled to free entrance – or why not try a French Brothers River Cruise?
