England Vacations

The land of kings and knights, Shakespeare and Sherlock Holmes, moors and manor houses, Britain is one of those places that have fascinated Western minds for hundreds of years. Its epicenter, the great city of London lives up to its reputation as one of the worlds leading cities in culture, entertainment, and business.

You shouldn’t have any trouble communicating, but remember the hard and fast vocabulary differences (brolly, bobby, banger, etc.) in Britain.

One of the easiest ways to see as much of Britain as possible is with a rental car or BritRail pass. And though it would have made former monarchs bloody mad, the Channel Tunnel now provides an easy link between Britain and France and the rest of Continental Europe. Britain is the perfect place to begin your vacation in Europe, as well as a fabulous destination all by itself.
