Itinerary

Good morning dear Londonites! Meet your new crew and hop onto our coach. It's time to make some moves. Hello Windsor, at the top of our agenda today is obviously, getting a magnificent view of the royal Windsor Castle! Afterwards, you've got some free time. So why not strut like a royal around this beautiful town studded with gardens and riverside views. And then it's back on the coach to our next destination.

Ready? We're going back in time. Because you've got some free time to explore this historical town. Visit the Royal Crescent, Roman Baths, the Jane Austen museum or maybe do a canal cruise! (Go on, live your period drama dreams.)Welcome to the sea-side wonder of Bristol. Colourful buildings, crazy cliffs, beautiful bridges - you're in for a treat. Speaking of treats…you can drop your bags off at our hotel before we feast on some well-deserved dinner.

Afterwards, you're free to roam the streets for a night out with your newly-made friends. (D) Stay: Ibis Bristol Centre Hotel (or similar)

Time to wake up! We've got some more exploration to do. And you've got a delicious breakfast waiting for you. Today, you can choose to check out Bristol's street art with a local guide before we make our way into Oxford! You've been dreaming about this. Haven't you? We're finally in THE Oxford - with its world-famous museums, libraries, churches and of course, University. You can even choose to roam around the river on a Punt. There's so much to be discovered here. So, it's a good thing you've got some free time in this quaint little town (that's also the home of Shakespeare!).

In the evening, we'll head to our stop for the night - Birmingham. Hungry? We'll drop our bags off at the hotel and stroll around in the streets and grab a bite on the way. Get a good night's sleep because tomorrow, we're heading up North! (B)Stay: Ibis Birmingham New Street Station (or similar)

Birmingham, you've been grand. But we've got places to be. Grab some breakfast before we hop onto our coach once more. Welcome to Liverpool. Chat all things Beatlemania & football in your best Scouse accent as we take a guided walking tour.

Afterwards, we'll check into our cosy hotel, and then you're free to do whatever you like. Heads up! Some departures will stay overnight in Manchester instead of Liverpool. Don't worry, you'll still have plenty of time to check out the city on a guided tour. Want more info? This will be confirmed in your travel documents closer to departure. (B) Stay: Ibis Liverpool Albert Dock (or similar)

Lap up your last dose of Liverpool before we go back to the time of the Vikings... in the traditional walled city of York. 2,000 years of history will unfold upon us as we amble down narrow lanes of York, exploring the Minster, the Shambles and Clifford's Tower. For fans of folklore, sign up to a night of ghostly horrors and dark alleyways & prepare to be spooked. (B) Stay: Holiday Inn Express Wakefield (or similar)

Even if the ghosts of York kept you awake all night, you're going to need to rise and shine and wave goodbye to the Harry Potter like setting of this ancient city. Whatever you do, don't Google this place before we arrive. It will spoil the surprise of its unfathomable beauty. Endless green hills, 16 serene lakes & streets of stone homes will have you pining for the country life. We'll take a spectacular drive to the Roman Empire's impressive Hadrian's Wall as well as English country charm in abundance.

End the day in quaint and charming Carlisle, England's northern-most town before Scotland! Nothing like the northern air to cosy up and wake as fresh as a daisy the next morning for all our activities. (B) Stay: Ibis Carlisle City Centre Hotel (or similar)

Today we are in for some border hopping along the English/Scottish border to see the sights on our way to Edinburgh! Back in the 21st Century, we'll find ourselves in Edinburgh as our trip comes to an end. Don't forget to exchange those deets! We'll meet again for another soulful journey in a different destination. (B)
