United Kingdom Tour – Explore UK and Ireland

Explore UK and Ireland

The best of the United Kingdom and Ireland awaits you in this glamorous holiday tour package for the Western European Islands – Great Britain, Scotland, and Ireland. Each of these three islands boasts a character unique to them; Great Britain continues to enthral visitors with its continuing royal lineage, the infamous British Stiff Upper Lip, Shakespeare Theatre and River Thames waterway. Scotland, the land of castles and palaces set amidst undulating hills takes one’s breath away with its exotic collection of medieval and modern architecture masterpieces and its ethereal bagpiper music; and Ireland welcomes visitors with open arms and a wealth of stories and told and re-told thousands of times by the seniors patronising the famous Irish pubs. Castles and quays add to the magic. Hop-On Hop-Off tours in the capital cities of each of these countries present the perfect gateway to explore the magical gems of Western Europe.
