Door2Tour.com, the website tour consolidator, is proud is
announce the launch of its coach holiday packages to coincide with the
Queens Diamond Jubilee celebrations, following on from the success of
the Royal Wedding.
The Royal Wedding and of course the release of the multi award-winning film 'The
Kings Speech' has certainly encouraged Brits to enjoy all things Royal-related,
whether it be through booking London city breaks or through coach packages that
encompass tours of Royal properties/locations such as Buckingham Palace, Hampton
Court, Clarence House and many more.
Recent research has also shown that almost a third of Britons feel more patriotic
with more than half admitting to feeling a surge of pride as they watched Prince
William marry Kate Middleton at Westminster Abbey on 29 April 2011. British history,
the NHS and the armed forces were among other things that made the country great
according to the 3,000 Brits polled for the Best of British Survey.
Rachel Jones, online PR & marketing co-ordinator, for Door2Tour.com said: "The
recent marriage between Wills and Kate has certainly encouraged Brits to be more
patriotic and as a result more are choosing to take part in national events to show
the world how great Britain truly is. We feel that this increase in patriotism will
certainly encourage more Brits to celebrate all things Royal-related and choose to
be in London to soak up the atmosphere and join in with the celebrations marking the
Queens Diamond Jubilee instead of watching at home."
In line with demand, Door2Tour.com’s exciting coach package means that everyone can
enjoy the pomp and pageantry of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Passengers who join
the tour will be taken to The Mall where crowds will gather to witness the Carriage
Procession in addition to the BBC concert broadcast from Buckingham Palace and to
watch the 1000-strong flotilla of the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant as it wends its
way downriver to the heart of the national celebrations.
The Queen came to the throne on 6 February 1952 and her Coronation took place on 2
June 1953. She celebrated her Silver Jubilee (25 years) in 1977 and her Golden
Jubilee (50 years) in 2002. The only other British monarch to celebrate a Diamond
Jubilee was Queen Victoria in 1897. Buckingham Palace is co-ordinating a range of
events centred around the extended weekend (2nd-5th June 2012 inclusive) and these
will include: a big Jubilee Lunch, Diamond Jubilee Pageant on The Thames, concert at
Buckingham Palace and the lighting of 2012 beacons throughout the UK.
Rachel concluded: "The Royal Wedding certainly proved to be a massive hit with our
customers, with packages selling out almost immediately leaving some disappointed.
As a result we certainly believe that our coach packages to the Queens Diamond
Jubilee will be as popular, if not more than the Royal Wedding, and we would advise
anyone wishing to be a part of these national celebrations to book their place as
soon as possible to avoid disappointment."
Packages include all coach travel, return transfers into London, three night's bed& breakfast in a good quality hotel with the services of a Tour Manager throughout.
