Princess Charlotte's First Royal Tour

Prince George and Princess Charlotte are set to take Canada by storm as they join their parents on a week-long tour of the country this month.

Details of the much-anticipated trip were released by Kensington Palace today - and it is hoped that the two young royals may make as many as four public appearances.

The family will fly into Victoria, on the west coat of Canada, on September 24 on a private jet funded by Canadian taxpayers.

George and Charlotte are expected - jet-lag permitting - to make an appearance together on the steps of the plane as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge disembark.

William and Kate have decided to base themselves in the city for the duration of the week-long official tour on behalf of the Queen and the British Government. Their home will be Government House, the official residence of the Queen's representative in British Columbia.

The children will be cared for by their nanny, Maria Borrallo, as their parents travel around the region on official engagements.

The cost of bringing Borrallo will be met by the couple "privately", Kensington Palace said.
