Britain's heritage spans 23 days visiting Edinburgh Castle, York Minster, and Stonehenge. The itinerary includes two-night stays in Edinburgh and London, plus visits to Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon and Bath's Roman ruins. Daily breakfast and 7 traditional dinners complement your stay.
- Days 1-2
London
Get started in London and check into your hotel near Kensington where most tours base themselves. The first afternoon is perfect for orientation. Take the Tube from Kensington to Westminster which takes about 20 minutes. A previous traveler shared: "The first days in London were a little uncertain because the group didn't get together until we began the bus tour. Consider arranging a meet-and-greet with drinks on arrival day."
- Days 3-4
Northern England
Take a 2-hour drive north to Oxford for a walking tour of the colleges. Visit Shakespeare's birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon before staying overnight in Leeds. The next day is for York's medieval streets. Get to York Minster before 9 AM to avoid tour groups. The Shambles gets busy around lunchtime.
- Days 5-6
Edinburgh
Drive 4.5 hours north along the coast to reach Edinburgh. Book accommodation well in advance if visiting in August during Festival season. A guest's tip: "Edinburgh Castle gets packed - go first thing and head straight to the Crown Jewels before lines form. The Royal Mile walking tours are best in early evening when day-trippers leave."
- Days 7-9
Scottish Highlands
Travel to the Highlands through St. Andrews and Pitlochry. On the way to Inverness stop at Culloden Battlefield. Plan to arrive by 3 PM to explore both the visitor center and battlefield. A helpful note from a traveler: "The Highland roads are winding - take motion sickness pills if needed and sit near the front of the coach."
- Days 10-11
Northern Ireland
- Days 12-14
Western Ireland
Enter the Republic of Ireland and travel to Galway. Visit the Cliffs of Moher in early morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds and harsh sunlight. Next is Killarney for the Ring of Kerry. Previous advice: "The jaunting car ride in Killarney National Park is worth doing - book the first morning slot for the best wildlife viewing."
- Days 15-17
Eastern Ireland
- Days 18-20
Wales
- Days 21-23
Southwest England
Travel through Bath to explore the West Country. Use Plymouth as your base for Cornwall trips. Visit Stonehenge right at opening time (9 AM) to beat the tour buses. Return to London takes 3-4 hours by motorway. Good advice from a past guest: "The last day's drive can be long with traffic - book evening activities in London no earlier than 7 PM to be safe."
