The England and Scotland Heritage tour offered an itinerary that showed us the best of each country. The itinerary included an optional visit to Wales made more enjoyable by the enthusiasm of the local specialist. I would rate the itinerary as 4 stars, the hotels as 3 stars and the coach as 5 stars. The reason I didn't rate the itinerary as 5 stars is that it could have benefited with an optional experience that toured the sites of London rather than leaving it to ourselves.

Saw lots, excursions all cost a lot more and some are very short, guide did not tell us any of this. Not a lot of time for relaxing at the hotels.

Life changing trip
I had never traveled outside of the Middle East previously so this trip was incredibly eye opening and soul blazing. Thank you so much to stefano for everything….as you can tell from the photos all the stops were just terrific. The company were incredible and the landscape was drop dead gorgeous. However I have to say I’m used to more hospitality and would have liked to see more water offered on the bus for free as well as snacks from the company…far too many experiences ended up being optional and pricey but I would honestly do it all over again. Communication wasn’t always 10/10 but trips are not meant to be perfect. Honestly for the tear jerking views I saw I would sell an arm and a leg. Thank you so much!!!!!! Much love xoxoxoxo
