Explore the Royal Mile, ending at Edinburgh Castle, where you’ll enjoy a guided tour of this historic fortress. The rest of the day is yours. Later this evening, take your seat at the spectacular, world-famous Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, one of Scotland's greatest events.
Say goodbye to Scotland and travel to the scenic Lake District, eternalized through the works of Scott and Wordsworth. Along the way, pause at Gretna Green, where runaway lovers would marry in secret. Enjoy a relaxing afternoon on the shores of Lake Windermere, your home for the next 2 nights. Breathe in the crisp air and admire the rolling hills nestled against the water.
See the area from a different perspective and set sail on Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake. Take in the tranquil backdrop before visiting the charming village of Grasmere. Personalize your afternoon because it’s your choice! Soak up the romance of the Lake District with a visit to Rydal Mount, the home of poet William Wordsworth -OR- embark on a guided hike through glacial valleys and along lakeside trails.
Head to Liverpool, England’s popular port city. After some free time to explore, it’s your choice! Perhaps you will visit Strawberry Field, the site where John Lennon came to play as a child, which he later immortalized in the song, ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’. Here you will experience an Impact Moment and learn about the work the Salvation Army does at Strawberry Field to give young people with learning difficulties the opportunity for work experience -OR- embark on a walking tour of Albert Dock and learn about Liverpool’s rich industrial history, connection to the American Civil War, as well as explore the Merseyside Maritime Museum.
This evening, perhaps you’ll join your Tour Manager at the Cavern Club, where The Beatles used to perform.
Delve into the English’s love of horticulture with a visit to a traditional garden. Your glimpse into the quintessential English lifestyle continues as you make your way to the Cotswolds. A region of hilly fields and stone houses, the Cotswolds is a charming collection of storybook villages. Settle into a 16th-century Elizabethan manor house for the night, situated among 8 acres of verdant countryside.
Enjoy a leisurely morning at your manor house hotel before setting off to explore the Cotswolds. Take in the rolling hills and honey-colored stone homes that make this one of England’s most beautiful areas. Enjoy lunch at the historic Lygon Arms, nestled in the charming town of Broadway.

Visit the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, which legend claims is the home of storied King Arthur. Then travel on to Cornwall, England’s remote southwestern peninsula. Cornwall has always danced to its own tune. Passing through rugged moors and lush valleys, it becomes clear why this far-reaching corner of the earth has been a source of inspiration for so many.
