10-Day Britain Tour from London: York, Edinburgh and Liverpool | 2 Countries and 17 Cities | 9 Breakfasts, 1 Lunch, 3 Dinners

Our first visit outside the US, well surpassed all expectations!

I was pleased to cover so much ground and see different English & Scottish sites/cities while learning of the historical significance of each. There was absolutely NO WAY I could have planned such a thorough trip on my own. The Castles, Cathedrals, Cobblestones gave me a true sense of history. The scenic pastures, Highlands made me feel transported far away from Denver, Colorado! British historical novels will now take on a new meaning.
