As Royal wedding fever heats up in the UK, one tour operator has taken advantage of the growing global fascination of the newest Royal couple.

Celebrity Planet, a London-based tour operator, has launched a William and Kate tour, which chronicles the courtship of the famous young couple costing ufffd15 (Rs 1,100).

Using sites of significance to both Prince William and Kate's relationship as well as the young royal's mother and father, Celebrity Planet has designed the two-hour tour around sentiment and drama.

Newcastle University graduate James Bonney owns the London-based company and said that celebrity tours are not a new idea.

He cites Harry Potter tours as an example and says that he is not concerned if others mimic is concept.

The tour begins at Bruton Street and heads to Albemarle Street stopping at sites like the jewellers where Princess Diana's blue sapphire engagement ring was purchased.

The 30-year old rock now sits on Kate Middleton's third finger and has become a Royal heirloom in its own right.

Winding around London, the tour also shows the site of Kate's great-grandfather's solicitor office and a series of shops on Dover Street that outline her career trajectory.

The tour even takes participants to the nightclub, where Prince William jumped on a table and shouted "I'm free" during a falling-out with Middleton in 2007.

Other stops on the tour include the site where Prince Charles celebrated his stag party just one night before marrying William's mother Diana.
