REASONS TO FANCY A
           TOUR OF BRITAIN
          THRONES, SCONES, AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
There’s nothing easy about planning a vacation, especially when visiting
the less-traversed areas of England, Scotland, and Wales. We handle the
 research, the reservations—even the driving on the “wrong” side of the
 road—so you don’t have to. With every logistic taken care of on a tour,
from hotels to transportation to sightseeing, your only job is to focus on
             all of the wonders that make Britain, well, great!
                    EARL GREY AND TEE TIMES.
   Britain is big on tradition—and welcomes you to participate. An
 escorted tour offers a pre-planned, pre-purchased itinerary with VIP
access to the must-see sites without ever waiting in line—from visiting
  the legendary birthplace of golf at St. Andrews to Britain’s world-
                            famous tearooms.
                         AISLES AND ISLES.
A perfectly planned tour saves you time, which means you have more
 of it to spend at the special places only we can share—from Britain’s
           grand gothic cathedrals to its small, mystical islands.
               ROCK STARS AND FAMOUS ROCKS.
 From the humble beginnings of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones
   to the humbling and perplexing phenomena of Stonehenge and
Clava Cairns, our expert Tour Directors shed light on some of Britain’s
                        greatest fascinations.
                       SEE IT. LIKE IT. POST IT.
  With free Wi-Fi on our luxury motorcoaches, you can share photos
 with family back home to show your fascinating stops off the beaten
path. Snap a pic of Clan Fraser’s battle field—a setting for the TV series
 Outlander. Or strike a regal pose at Doune Castle, a Game of Thrones
                 film location, to share on social media.
                        HOPS AND SCOTCH.
  You don’t have to search the Internet for restaurants, bars, or local
favourites on our tours. We know the best English pubs to order a pint
        of lager or the best spot for a dram of Scottish whisky.

                                                                             | 3

 to shepherd’s pie…from The Beatles to beer. England,
 Scotland, and Wales is a mix of historic heroes,

                        EXETER
                        Exeter is a small city on the Exe River that packs a vibrant
                        punch with history and heritage pre-dating the Romans’
                        arrival in 50 A.D. Explore this fascinating and lovely setting,
                        including one of the great churches of England—the
                        magnificent Exeter Cathedral.

                        “cuppa” tea in this unspoiled village. Bordering Darmoor’s
                        National Park in Devon, Widecombe-in-the-Moor is home to
                        idyllic scenes with wild ponies, sheep, and cattle that often
                        meander onto the village green.

                        TINTERN
                        The stunning scenery, including the crumbling ruins of the
                        magnificent Cistercian Abbey in Wales’ beautiful Wye Valley,
                        served as inspiration for Jane Austen and William Wordsworth.

                        authors of all time, but travellers may be speechless standing

            First enjoyed by the Romans, then the dandies of 18th-century
            London, the curative mineral waters of Bath—and its splendid
            Georgian architecture—remain a respite for today’s traveller.

            COTSWOLDS
            Set out and explore the legendary Cotswolds’ dramatic hills
            and sweeping meadows dotted with stately castles, honey-
            coloured villages, and charming thatched-roof cottages.

            TETBURY
            Enjoy lunch and a relaxing stroll through the charming
            wool town of Tetbury. You’ll see why many call this town an
            “architectural gem” as many of the wool merchants’ houses
            seem to remain unchanged from the 16th & 17th centuries.

            ISLE OF WIGHT
Cotswolds   Picture yourself a royal as you ferry from England’s south
            coast to the yachter’s playground of Isle of Wight. At
            Osborne House, Queen Victoria’s palatial holiday home, you
            can tour her private apartments and frolic on her former

                  You may have seen the medieval stronghold of Doune Castle

                  setting amid the heathered moors, mountain views, and
                  Sutherland’s splendid seashore—surveyed by dukes, earls, and

                  coast of Mull is home to the beautiful Iona Abbey and burial
                  ground of early Scottish kings.
