The City or The Countryside on UK Tours

A unique aspect of UK tours is their ability to encompass both first-rate cities and stunning countryside.

The diversity of the UK’s cities and countryside is incredible considering its relatively small geographical size.

City Tours

The UK range of cities will satisfy even the most seasoned of city tourists.

Officially, there are ‘66’ official cities in the UK, as well as several ‘towns’ big enough to be considered cities.

England’s capital, London, has a population of over seven million and its history and culture is truly unique. The largest city in the UK is London, with a population of over seven million and an internationally renowned status.

The UK’s wealth of cities means thorough research is essential in making sure you don’t miss out on anything during your tour.

A stop in Liverpool should be considered on all trips, a city which has gone from strength to strength after hosting the 2008 Capital of Culture.

Countryside Tours

The countryside on offer in the United Kingdom is second to none, and can be assessed within hours of leaving the city.
Those tours based in London are granted easy access to Kent, the so-called ‘The Garden of England’. Kent’s rolling countryside and stunning orchards have made it a must-stop on UK tours in the south of England.

A stop in the Lake District is a must for any tour in the north of England. Ramblers visiting here will fancy a hike up Scafell Pike, the tallest mountain in England, as well as around its stunning lakes and meres.

You could also consider climbing the three peaks of England, Scotland and Wales; otherwise known as The Three Peaks Challenge.
From international cities to rolling country fields, the UK offers both without having to spend too much of your time travelling!
