What to expect

Overview
22 days from London to Dublin
Experience some of Britain and Ireland’s fascinating towns and spectacular scenery as this tour takes you on a journey through lush landscapes, vibrant cities and historic attractions.

In Britain, travel through the National Parks of Northumberland, the Brecon Beacons, Dartmoor and the incomparable Snowdonia National Park in Wales. Drive through the serene Lake District, England’s largest and finest natural park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On your way to Glasgow, admire some of Scotland’s most stunning scenery, including vast areas of unspoiled wilderness and gorgeous lochs (lakes).

In Stratford-upon-Avon, explore the town that Shakespeare called home and get a glimpse into life in 16th-century England. Walk through York’s quaint streets with your Tour Director and marvel at England's most complete medieval city. In Bath, explore the elegant city famed for its excavations of the 2,000-year-old Roman baths. In Plymouth, see the Mayflower Steps, from where the Pilgrim Fathers embarked in 1620. Enjoy an orientation drive in Cardiff, the capital of Wales, and sightseeing in Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital.

In Ireland the highlights continue! See the 668-foot Cliffs of Moher on Ireland’s west coast, offering breathtaking views of rugged cliffs dropping into the ocean. Join the Ring of Kerry, a 100-mile drive with sparkling seascapes and mountains dotted with brightly painted farmhouses. In Northern Ireland, visit awe-inspiring Giant’s Causeway, and visit Derry one of Ireland’s best-preserved fortified cities, and Downpatrick, burial place of Ireland’s Patron Saint. On the amazingly green Dingle Peninsula—perched on Ireland’s westernmost tip and dominated by the range of mountains—enjoy one of Europe’s most dramatic drives passing seaside villages, ancient monuments, and views of the Blasket Islands. Visit some of its vibrant cities—including Dublin, Belfast, and Galway—and charming towns, including Killarney.
