It was excellent and we saw heaps.
Would like to have had time to see Shakespeare’s grave in church before we went to museum as church was closed by the time we got back to hotel.
An extra night in Liverpool
Dive right into history, culture and spectacular scenery on this immersive England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland trip. Step in the shoes of Highland warriors, 12th-century monks and welcoming, Irish locals.
East meets West on this 10 day trip through the distinctly cool, modern vibes & rich history of Europe's capital cities and lesser-known gems. From the one & only Berlin alongside Prague, Amsterdam, Salzburg, Verona, Venice, Rome & more, we’ll flutter from tasting locally-distilled schnaps at an alpine farm, to personal guided tours through royal castles, to private cruises along the iconic canals & islands of Venice, to nights out in eclectic clubs filled with hipster locals, staying in centrally located hostels all the way.
The perfect mix of seasides and cities, the Barcelona to London Quest kicks off in Barcelona, skirting the Mediterranean Sea before heading up through the middle of Italy and on to Eastern Europe, winding up in London after a perfectly balanced adventure.
Take in the Heart of England and North Wales on this 5-day escorted group tour from London. See the birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon and spend two nights in the historic town of Shrewsbury. Discover the picturesque scenery of Snowdonia and the Peak District, explore Conwy Castle, see the Duke of Devonshire's house at Chatsworth and spend a free day exploring the historic city of York. Admire Lincoln Cathedral, once the tallest building in the world, and take in Kings College or opt for a punt on the 'backs' of Cambridge en route back to London.
Limited budget to rock Europe but don't want to compromise? This trip hits up London, Rome & Paris plus ancient ruins & alpine views in 8 days. Starting in Rome for pizza & history, we'll parade through the breath-taking Alpine views of Switzerland and fall in love with romantic Paris, before arriving in the one-and-only city of London. On the way we'll take time to snap pictures of Tuscany, Florence, Swiss villages & laze around the Leaning Tower of Pisa, as well as attempting to devour snails & wash them down with French champagne. Europe, it's been real.
We saw so much of Europe and it was wonderful. A couple of more days in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria would have added so much. My wife and I still enjoyed this trip enormously.
With almost 200 countries in the world to tick off your list, time is precious. Smashing 11 in one trip should really get things moving. Eat Trdelnik in Prague, soak in thermal baths in Budapest & party round the clock in Berlin. Cities, culture, history & scenery are on the cards for the Trail to Rome.
