VISIT THE WONDERS OF GREAT BRITAIN

It is always good to get away from the mundane pace of life by going on holiday.  To my shame of all the years I have lived in England I have only seen some small parts of it.

So it was with some pleasure to read thatthere are tour packages UK available that will take you to interesting sites all over England and Scotland.  These trips are all undertaken by coach.  There are no planes and trains to catch as your transport will travel with you for the whole duration of the holiday.

From London you will first travel to Cambridge which is a lovely old city, especially towards Christmas time.  You will be able to hear the boys’ choir practising in King’s College.  On fine days the tour starts there with a punt on the river.

You will also visit Hadrian’s Wall which many people thought was the dividing line between Scotland and England and to keep marauding bands at bay.  This has proved to be a wrong assumption and it is much more likely that it was a Roman status symbol.


Much of the wall has survived to this day and it is possible to travel along a great length of it on the footpath that runs beside it.  

Nearby is the historic town Jedburgh where St Bede brought Christianity to the British Isles from Ireland.  On the same day you will hit Edinburgh with its many tourist attraction.  This is also where you will spend the night so you can go for a leisurely pint in the evening.

You will travel all the way up north as far as Inverness before travelling down again to Liverpool, Stratford on Avon and Cardiff.  It seems an awful lot of travelling, but within the confines of your touring coach you can strike up friendships with your fellow travellers.

All tours are accompanied with a guide who will fill you in with interesting facts about the many places you visit.

Before you go all the way to Stonehenge you will find yourself in Bath.  This city is the home of the Roman baths which still shows much Roman architecture.

If you have never gone on holiday in your own country you should have a look at information about tour packages UK from http://www.gotimelesstours.co.uk/p0/europe-great-britain/97.htm/
