Notes to Editors

The Prince of Wales last visited the United States in January 2007 when, accompanied by The Duchess of Cornwall, he attended engagements in Philadelphia and New York. That visit followed on from Their Royal Highnesses’ Autumn Tour to the country in November 2005, when they spent time in New York, Washington DC, New Orleans and San Francisco.
