Trip Overview:
This 9-day European vacation takes you across the British Isles, from Dublin to Edinburgh to London.
Your British Isles vacation begins in Dublin, the Irish capital and one of the friendliest cities you'll ever visit. Dublin was once thought of as the loveliest city in Europe and while its gorgeous Georgian architecture has begun to show its age, the city hasn't lost any of its charm. Take advantage of the Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour to see some of the most popular city spots, like Trinity College Library, which houses the incredible Book of Kells, a 9th-century illustrated manuscript of the Gospels, and the Dublin Docklands, ground zero for the city's urban revitalization. You'll also spend a day visiting the Guinness Storehouse, which recounts the history of the world's most famous stout and lets you enjoy a pint while you're at it.
Fly from Dublin to Edinburgh, the Scottish capital that's awash with medieval and Georgian architecture. Glasgow might be larger, but Edinburgh remains the most popular city in Scotland for lovers of history. Use the Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour to dart around the city's hills, visiting the medieval Old Town and Georgian New Town as well as Holyrood Palace and Calton Hill with its series of monuments and gorgeous views. You'll also head to the city's crowning achievement, Edinburgh Castle, which towers over the city from Castle Rock. A tour of the castle will show you the famed Stone of Destiny and let you enjoy the best views of the city below.
Close out your England vacation by heading to London, one of the most visited cities on the planet and the capital of the United Kingdom. With history reaching back to Roman times, you'll find plenty of great historical sites and culture in London. Once again, use a Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour to zip between the popular sites, such as the Tower of London, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace. Visit the British Museum to gaze upon Egyptian mummies and see the resting places of past kings, queens, and great artists and scientists at Westminster Abbey. Ride the Coca Cola London Eye up 135m to enjoy 360° views of London. The next day, take a walking tour to explore the filming locations of the Harry Potter series, heading from the real-life Diagon Alley to Platform 9 ¾ at King's Cross Station. Also, be sure to enjoy some famous fish and chips to get the full London experience.
Consider adding a few more days in London to see all that this incredible city has to offer.
