King Charles ‘is planning Royal Family’s biggest ever global tour to kick off his reign’

King Charles III will embark on the largest world tour in the history of the royal family to mark the beginning of his reign.

The King will visit Australia, New Zealand and several Commonwealth countries in the Caribbean.

Reportedly, the monarch herself plans several domestic and foreign trips, allowing Queen Consort Camilla to carry out her personal projects at home.

A two-year world tour will introduce the new king to the world and “stretch out a hand of friendship and support,” royal sources said.

King Charles was able to visit as many countries as Queen Elizabeth did in the 1970s, when she traveled to 52 Commonwealth countries and 21 others to celebrate her Silver Jubilee.

Buckingham Palace would consider traveling to Australia and Canada ‘as soon as possible’. The king is also excited to visit at least a dozen other countries where he is the monarch.
