The Visit Behind the Destination
Historic Royal Palaces describes approaches through Kensington Gardens from Queensway via Black Lion Gate, and from High Street Kensington via Dial Walk or the Broad Walk. The palace visit includes an entry security check.
Choose the Correct Arrival and Return
Plan the final garden approach as part of the visit rather than treating the palace as an ordinary kerbside building. Ask about walking requirements before arranging a cab destination, and use the entrance instructions issued for your actual palace booking.
Turning the Visit Into a Taxi Enquiry
For a Kensington Palace taxi or minicab enquiry, keep the attraction booking and the road journey together: give the date, party size and any entrance instructions supplied by the venue. An admission slot is the time you need to reach the attraction, so discuss the proposed departure with the operator after allowing for the final walk and entry procedure.
For the return cab, use a time when everyone expects to be outside and ready rather than the moment the last activity ends. Explain luggage, pushchairs or mobility requirements before asking the operator to confirm a vehicle and meeting point.
