The United Kingdom is an ideal destination for all types of visitors thanks to its diverse history, traditions, culture, lively cities and natural landscapes. In fact, a trip to the United Kingdom does not lack anything for those who are thirsty to explore and want to discover iconic attractions for themselves. 

London is an essential stop and some choose to make it the only destination of an entire vacation. There is so much to see and do, but must-sees include Buckingham Palace, London Bridge, the Tower of London, the London Eye, Oxford Street (for the shopping!), Big Ben and Westminster, and the National and Tate galleries, to name just a few wonders of this city. There are also some iconic football stadiums to see, including Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, as well as family-friendly museums, such as the Harry Potter Studio and Madame Tussauds. Our customers often like to team London with visits to Cardiff in Wales and Edinburgh in Scotland. Wales has a sort of unique charm that cannot be found elsewhere in the UK. The landscape is beautiful and wild, and the locals are friendly and eager to share their culture and cuisine with you – be sure to try Welsh rarebit and bara brith before leaving! Meanwhile, Edinburgh brings a mix of cosmopolitan living intertwined with deep history. The Royal Mile bustles with tourists and locals enjoying the city atmosphere, while Edinburgh Castle gives you the opportunity to step into Scotland’s past and see a glorious panoramic view of the city from its prime hill-top location.

Those looking to explore the contrasts of the UK may like to team a visit to London with a stop in the tranquil region of Cornwall in the southwest of England. This region deserves a special mention as it is one of the most beautiful areas in England, with a wild coastal atmosphere and beautiful stretches of green meadows lining sandy beaches. It is a wonderful destination for those looking for a walking vacation in England or surfers, who will simply love the beaches at Polzeath and Newquay. If an escape to nature like this appeals to you, we think you’ll also love the Cotswolds in south-central England. This region is very particular and representative of the typical English landscape famous across the world. It features rolling countryside, flowery cottages and small charming villages waiting for you to discover them!

If you want to immerse yourself in the UK’s majestic past, the density of castles and stately homes from various eras will truly amaze you. Some of the largest and most famous are Leeds Castle, Hever, Windsor and Warwick Castle. There are also many glorious cathedrals to discover, including Canterbury, Salisbury and York, as well as London’s Westminster. Even archaeology enthusiasts will not be disappointed by the variety and number of interesting sites in the country. A visit to the unmissable Neolithic site of Stonehenge tops our list for a magical experience, and the famous Roman baths of Bath and Hadrian’s Wall are definitely a must! If you choose to make Scotland part of your UK tour, be sure to see Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood.

These are just a few of the popular locations in the UK that our customers love to visit. But there are so many other cities to see, such as Liverpool (home to The Beatles), Manchester with its iconic football tradition, and the university cities of Cambridge and Oxford.
