A unique opportunity to experience "Churchill's London" and explore the life and legacy of the 20th century's greatest statesman.
On this once-in-a-lifetime experience, you and your guest will enjoy:
- Lunch with Randolph Churchill, Sir Winston Churchill's great-grandson and President of the International Churchill Society, followed by a private tour of The Churchill War Rooms, the world's preeminent site devoted to his accomplishments, life and career.
- A visit to the Wallace Collection to view "Churchill - The Painter", showcasing over fifty of Churchill's paintings in the largest show of its kind since the 1950's. Assembled from public and private collections around the world, this unprecedented exhibition, including many paintings never before seen in public, is unlikely ever to be repeated. Includes an inscribed copied of "Churchill: The Statesman as Artist" by Prof. Sir David Cannadine, leading authority on Churchill painting.
- A private tour curator-led tour of Chartwell, Churchill's beloved country home, where in the 1930's he laid the groundwork for his titanic struggle with Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany. Chartwell was his spiritual home for over forty years - as he once said, "A day away from Chartwell is a day wasted."
- Private curator tour of the Churchill Archives Centre at Churchill College Cambridge, the repository of his personal archive as well as Margaret Thatcher and numerous other prominent British figures spanning over a century of history. Includes lunch at Churchill College.
Accommodations for two at the luxurious Hyatt Regency London - The Churchill, located in the heart of London's West End. Overlooking the charming Portman Square and just steps from Oxford Street, this five-star hotel offers refined British elegance inspired by Sir Winston Churchill himself. Your three-night stay includes a sumptuous daily breakfast for two.
- And to continue your interest in the life of Winston Churchill, a one-year membership in the International Churchill Society including a subscription to the Society's award-winning journal, "Finest Hour."
Notes: Valid between May 29 and November 29, 2026, subject to confirmation of specific dates.
