Plenty of time to see the sites and do things on your own if desired. Bus provided ample leg room for us taller clients. We enjoyed the offered excursions even though we had been to many of the cities previously. This was our third trip with Insight and not our last. Having traveled with Trafalgar and Brendan also, Insight is our top pick for future travels.

This trip is perfect if you want to really smash out Europe, safely experience Egypt and if you haven’t travelled much. We got to see so many amazing places and now I have a great idea of where I would go back to. Yes it is very fast paced and you wont do everything you want to but you do 95% of the main attractions of each place and you have people to share the experiences with. You will 100% make friends on these trips if you solo traveler :)

The Pub Crawl! So named in the finest English tradition because in the old days and indeed not-so-old days, pub drinkers would stop off for a drink at as many pubs until they were crawling between venues. Whilst we won’t be this extreme, this traditional pub walk will visit some of the finest old pubs in London. Each one with a very different atmosphere and history, but all sharing a fine offering of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in a wonderful historic building.
From the fringes of the East End, we will visit pubs in Clerkenwell and Farringdon before visiting some truly historic pubs in Holborn and Lincoln’s Inn Fields.
Pubs we visit include:
Viaduct Tavern: Recognised as one of the best historical pubs, this pub is built on the site of a former jail and still has five of the cells visible in the basement. Better be on your best behaviour then, so drink up!
The Castle, Farringdon: This refreshingly down-to-earth Farringdon public house was once frequented by King George IV, who was tempted in by a spot of cockfighting. Happily, the only poultry you may come across here now is in the delicious food that is served up.
The Crown Tavern, Clerkenwell Green: The lounge of this pub was once a noted music hall, perhaps this is what made it Lenin’s favourite boozer. In 1905 he met with comrade Stalin here in a meeting room upstairs. Its classic interior features mean that these days it is more likely to be used in television and films, maybe you will remember where you first saw The Crown Tavern over a pint.
Ye Olde Mitre: Built in 1546, Ye Olde Mitre is famous for having a cherry tree, (now supporting the front) that Queen Elizabeth once danced around. Set in a part of London steeped in history, it’s near where William Wallace was hung, drawn, and quartered at Smithfield.
The Seven Stars: Dating from around 1602, The Seven Stars backs on to the law courts and is a favourite haunt of lawyers, Church of England music directors and choir singers. It’s a cozy little pub inside with a quirky atmosphere along with a fine selection of drinks.
Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese: Situated near Lincoln’s Inn Fields and Holborn, this wonderful old pub proudly declares that it was rebuilt in 1667 following The Great Fire of London. Known to be the regular drinking spot of such names as Charles Dickens, Dr. Johnson, Mark Twain, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Alfred Tennyson and P.G. Wodehouse then this might be just the pub to have a wee dram in whilst concocting your next best-selling novel.
*Please note that not every pub listed is guaranteed to be open, in which case we will try and find a good alternative*

This trip was interesting and well organised with a variety of stops and areas of interest. We listened to stories by Kevin, which were told in an engaging and compassionate way. Wayne, our driver was also very caring and always helped us off the bus! Both Kevin and Wayne were professional and experienced professionals. I just loved seeing the United Kingdom, especially Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Michael Caine’s 1969 film, The Italian Job, has become a cult classic and encapsulates London’s eccentricity perfectly. In the film Charlie Croker and his fellow gang of reprobates steal $4 million from the Italian Mafia using three classic Mini Coopers. To carry out the job they don bright blue jump suits and tweed flat caps, stash the gold in the boot and make their get-away via the side streets of Turin. You can re-enact this iconic scene with the optional fancy dress overalls and caps in the boot of your very own restored classic Mini Cooper. Your get-away driver is a passionate local guide that will show you the places you won’t find in the guide books. Thereally good stuff in London is often hidden away down tiny back streets and alleyways that only a Mini can get to.
From memorable sights to unforgettable nights, this is the trip to open your eyes to all aspects of Europe.
