Self-guided travelers rate their independent journeys through England.
Anonymous | Traveled in July
Everything was first class-lodging, meals, coach, guides and driver. It was a small group (24) so lots of room on the coach. I would have liked more time at places like the Cliffs of Moher. We had less than an hour, so we didn’t have any time to go through the museum. Seems like we had too much “shopping” time for me, but some people like that. I would have been happy with less fancy lodging with a corresponding lower cost. Again, I don’t care about where I sleep as long as it’s comfortable and clean. It was nice that tips were included in the pricing so we didn’t have to keep cash handy. Overall, great trip.
Roslyn R. | Traveled in July
A very good itinerary was arranged and enjoyed with a lot of free time available in between to do and see for yourself. A good balance of meals included and easy travel between beauty spots. Tour Director and bus driver were very easy to ask questions and helpful all the time. I would recommend this style of travel.

The Clovelly cafe lacked any atmosphere, and the scones were terrible The rest of Clovelly was excellent. Maybe more explanation re the walk down the steep hill about the things to look at going down The two included meals were excellent
Colleen E. | Traveled in July
Great tour, overall. This trip covers a lot of miles, through 5 countries (England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, and Wales), with stops along the way to sample local food, customs, history, and fun. Our tour director was incredibly knowledgeable about each locale, giving us historical information, as well as informing us about local practices and terminology. Our driver was outstanding, navigating both narrow country roads and busy highways. We put our absolute trust in his capable hands and could relax and not worry about arriving at our destination safely and on time.

We loved the amount of ground covered and sights seen, but occasionally a little more time in an area would have been great?
