Oxford - Your full
day tour will travel over the Chiltern Hills to Oxford. Look out
for the Red Kite once on the ‘at risk’ list. Our first
stop is at one of England’s most ancient university cities,
Oxford. Here your guide will take you on a walking tour past some
of the famous university and college buildings during which you
will hear stories of academic life and the various people who
have been privileged to study here like Bill Clinton. It was Oxford
that inspired Lewis Carroll to write the enchanting tales of “Alice
in Wonderland”.
Stratford-upon-Avon
- Here, you will visit William Shakespeare’s birthplace,
which gives a fascinating insight into life, as it was when he
was a child. This tour will give you time to explore this charming
market town with its variety of shops, eating places and historic
sixteenth century half-timbered buildings.
Warwick Castle
- Warwick Castle is renowned as the finest medieval castle in
England; built on the banks of the River Avon. The Castle was
begun by King William I (the Conqueror) in 1068, and has been
an important fortress ever since, taking its rightful place in
English history.
You will be able to visit the Waxwork exhibition, which depicts
life in the castle over the centuries, the State Apartments, dungeons,
and the rampart walk with its magnificent views over the river
and surrounding countryside. During the summer months you may
