After an energy-boosting breakfast with your group, you'll wave goodbye to the Big Smoke as you start your journey north. Your next stop’s skyline is equally as impressive as the capital’s - with twisting spires, majestic domes and more than a few grinning gargoyles. Did you know that Oxford University is the second oldest university in the world? Or that the city served as the official capital for four years during the English Civil War? You’ll uncover plenty more historical nuggets as you walk in the footsteps of the colleges’ illustrious alumni - think Oscar Wilde and Lewis Carroll - on an orientation tour with our clued-up Tour Leader. After a little free time to wander and grab some lunch (the city’s historic Covered Market is our top pick!), you’ll continue your journey west. Your path will take you through several of the idyllic old-world villages of the Cotswolds. Marvel at their honey-hued cottages forged from yellow limestone and soak up vistas of the undulating wolds. Then, a free evening awaits in Mickleton, where you'll find a choice of charming local pubs to dine in.

All the world’s a stage, and all men and women merely players! Today, your stage will be the storied streets of Stratford-Upon-Avon: the esteemed birthplace of William Shakespeare. Revel in remarkable tales of his life, loves and losses on a walking tour with your Tour Leader. If there’s time, you'll pay homage to the playwright with a visit to his grave. Make sure you spare a minute to peruse the epitaph which is supposedly a curse written by Shakespeare himself. This afternoon, there's more exploring to be done in the delightful Cotswolds. You'll weave effortlessly along the region's narrow lanes, stopping off at a few of your Tour Leader's favourite villages. Broadway, often called the prettiest village in England, will likely be one of them.

Following your medieval history fix, you''ll begin your scenic journey to Denbighshire - rolling through the serene Shropshire Hills where you'll make two memorable stops en route. Wales's Denbighshire region is known for its tiny, twisting country lanes - but we'll make short work of them in our minicoach.

You’ll leave medieval York behind this morning and jump forward a few hundred years at Castle Howard. This glorious 17th-century English estate has some serious curb appeal, with its Baroque-style frontage embellished with exquisitely carved coronets, cyphers and cherubs a true feast for the eyes. Wander the castle's grand rooms and gaze up at the whimsically painted ceiling of its 70-foot dome before riding the free road train through the splendid grounds. Keep your eyes peeled for the tinkling Atlas Fountain and the Temple of the Four Winds - a hilltop folly originally built as a reading and writing nook. Next, your path will take us through the Yorkshire Dales National Park, winding us past tumbling rivers, through lush valleys and into tiny villages that appear trapped in time. Cricket fans will strike lucky with a stop in Thirsk - the birthplace of Thomas Lord, founder of Lord's Cricket Ground. And if there's time, you'll also make a small detour to the Ribble Valley to witness the Grade II Ribblehead Viaduct snaking its way across the heather-dusted moors. The final chapter of today’s adventure sees you entering the legendary Lake District. Marvel at the verdant scenery as you glide effortlessly down twisting country lanes towards our hotel.

Lake District

Rugged mountain fells, tarns that sparkle in the sun and forests that hum with birdsong...it's no surprise that this spectacular region has been a muse for so many literary geniuses over the centuries! With that in mind, it’s only fitting to start our day at Hill Top - the idyllic former holiday home of Beatrix Potter. Feel your inner child squeal with delight in the flower-filled gardens where miniature scenes from some of her most famous books nestle amongst the greenery. You can even flick through a few books (or buy some as souvenirs) in the house’s second-hand book nook. More inspiring vistas await us this afternoon as you explore the heart of the Lake District - allowing your Tour Leader to personalise the route with their most beloved stops. Finally, you'll end the day soaring across Windermere on a tranquil boat cruise. Soak up the serenity of the region as dusk settles over the soaring peaks, casting fantastical shadows on the water. Is this "the loveliest spot that man hath found" as William Wordsworth wrote? We certainly think so.

This palatial art gallery sits on the fringes of Barnard Castle and its halls are stuffed with an eclectic collection of priceless art and antiques. And its crowning glory? A life-size silver clockwork swan that you won't believe dates to the 18th century! As you creep ever closer to Scotland, you'll stumble across one of the most northerly frontiers of the mighty Roman empire: Hadrian’s Wall. Hop off the minicoach at Lanercost Priory to explore a duo of historical architectural gems, unearthing stories of old as you wander between eerie yet beautiful ruins dating back as far as the 2nd century. Then, one last group dinner awaits at your hotel in the rugged Scottish Borders. On tonight’s menu? A traditional Scottish feast of haggis, neeps and tatties, of course!

Edinburgh is an incredibly historic city, and you will have an exciting and unique experience while in town. Appreciating that you may be short on time to see and do everything Edinburgh has to offer, this Mini Mack adventure visits a host of notable UNESCO sites and hidden gems while you snap away on your cameras and phones. Led by one of two local brothers, Rowan and Andy Mackie, you will have the opportunity to see and do more than what is listed in guide books. While Rowan and Andy may not be licensed historians, their local knowledge of Edinburgh and inside scoops on what's fun and interesting to do in the city is second-to-none, making for the perfect day out. After discovering a range of Edinburgh's top highlights including Calton Hill and Arthurs Seat - among many others - you will then settle in for a tasty meal in a charming local pub that features fresh, locally-sourced cuisine before being returned to your hotel. The perfect half-day sightseeing experience in Edinburgh, an additional treat is that your transportation between sites is in a well-maintained and comfortable Mini Cooper.

Scottish Borders - The Great Tapestry of Scotland and Rosslyn Chapel - Edinburgh

We’ve got two more highlights in store for you before we round off our tour in the history-rich Scottish capital. First up is an artistic masterpiece in the form of The Great Tapestry of Scotland. Situated within its own dedicated visitors centre near the Borders, this immense tapestry (that's made up of a whopping 160 linen panels) is one of the world’s largest community art projects. Countless tales from ancient times to the present day have been adorned upon it - making it a true saga of Scottish history. With our creative juices flowing, you'll move onto the intriguing Rosslyn Chapel. The eagle eyed among you might recognise it from the Da Vinci Code (both the novel and the film). We’ll inspect its intricately carved interiors, whose mysterious patterns and symbols have long baffled historians, before we board our luxury minicoach one last time. Edinburgh might be our tour’s final stop - but where will your journey take you next? You could continue your Gaelic chapter on our Scottish Journey tour.

She literally arranged everything with her French partners. The guides and drivers were wonderful the accommodations were excellent.
