Customer Reviews
Had a fabulous trip with tralfalgar to the british isles .
It's a great overall taste of these countries. A range of larger and smaller towns, different attractions, and some good exposure to the local cultures.
The itinerary was an excellent view of UK especially for people like us who haven't been there before
Great Tour Director (Andrew) and Driver (Camile) and they both made our UK holiday a wonderful and memorable experience. Everywhere we travelled - England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland was great, including our accommodation, dining, entertainment, excursions and sometimes extra stop offs which weren't on our itinerary
A great itinerary with spectacular scenery and interesting experiences, visits to both small villages and the major cities.
