Discover the unique attractions of the UK

The UK, comprised of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, is a familiar travel destination. Yet each area has its own unique foods, natural features, quirky villages, towns, and cities – and you’ll find truly unusual experiences and activities in each. You may well wish to travel around the entirety of the UK focusing on a specific theme (film location travel, anyone?), or enjoy destination travel to just one country or area.

Ground yourself in UK history

We can customize a travel plan taking you to castles, bridges, museums both large and small, ships, and more. Imagine yourself in a medieval battle while wandering Caernarfon castle in Wales. Or listen for the ghosts of the lost princes in the Tower of London.

Tour UK filming destinations

Let your inner Harry Potter wizard free while wandering the winding streets in York and Edinburgh, as well as Alnwick Castle, which served as several parts of the wizarding world in the early films. Imagine you’re a time lord just like the Doctor while exploring various Dr. Who filming locations in Wales and England. Tour filming locales for Midsomer Murders, Outlander, or Poldark – or other excellent series and movies filmed in the UK!

Try an active adventure trip

Challenge yourself climbing and ziplining around a slate cavern in Wales. Hike around Anglesey, then camp on the side of a sheer cliff. Afterward, head east to England to kayak as you explore the terrain. Climb Yr Wyddfa (Mt. Snowdon) in north Wales, the mountain that Sir Edmund Hillary climbed to prepare for his historic ascent of Mount Everest, then head to Scotland’s Ben Nevis to challenge yourself further.

Experience the UK’s big city vibes

Explore London’s nightlife and museums, then enjoy Manchester’s northern soul music and hidden speak-easys before heading further north to Edinburgh in Scotland for whisky tastings, military tattoos (a unique set of military band performances), and artistic performances.

Make a literary pilgrimage

Walk where Jane Austen and her characters walked in Bath. Immerse yourself in the Brontës’ world in Haworth. Enjoy browsing the shelves in the beautiful Barter Books UK, situated in an old railway station. Or perhaps imagine living in Sir Walter Scott’s world at Abbotsford, while attending one of the many literary events there. Or visit various locales associated with Dylan Thomas, poet, and author of Under Milkwood.
