Step into Dickens’ London
Charles Dickens didn’t just write about Victorian London – he lived it. Join a world-leading Dickens expert on a walking tour that uncovers hidden corners of the city. You’ll stand on streets that inspired Oliver Twist, Pickwick Papers, and Our Mutual Friend. Along the way, your guide shares surprising stories and little-known facts about 19th-century life.
Walk with Shakespeare in London
William Shakespeare shaped English literature forever. Now you can follow in his footsteps on a captivating London walking tour. Your expert guide and actor starts at The Old Vic and leads you along the Thames — the lifeline of Elizabethan London. Despite the Great Fire and the Blitz destroying much of the original city, you’ll visit surviving sites, enjoy live readings, and imagine the noisy, colourful world Shakespeare knew.
Live the Anfield Legend (Liverpool FC)
Liverpool fans, this is your dream day! The Anfield Experience begins when you meet an LFC Legend for drinks and stories in an executive box. You ask questions, laugh at dressing-room tales, then tour the stadium. See the new Main Stand, sit in Klopp’s dugout, and visit the interactive Liverpool FC Story museum. A three-course lunch follows – with your Legend dropping by again for photos and autographs. You even take home an exclusive gift.
Explore Leeds Castle Like Never Before
Leeds Castle in Kent calls itself “the loveliest castle in the world” – and it delivers special behind-the-scenes tours. Go “below stairs” with a guide and discover how servants ran the household with military precision. Watch spectacular falconry displays featuring falcons, owls, and vultures. Every Wednesday, the head gardener shows you the fragrant Culpeper Garden and the sunny Mediterranean terraces. Special “History Set in Stone” tours reveal why half the castle once collapsed into the moat – and what a medieval toilet really looked like!
Stonehenge, Windsor, Lacock & Bath in One Day
This bestselling day trip packs four iconic places into one unforgettable journey. You enter Windsor Castle as one of the first visitors of the day. Marvel at Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House and the lavish State Apartments. Next stop: mysterious Stonehenge. Walk around the 5,000-year-old stones and explore the excellent visitor centre. Enjoy a packed lunch on the coach (no queueing!), then visit picture-perfect Lacock village and its quirky abbey-turned-country-house. Finish in elegant Bath – the UK’s only entire city listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site – with a guided walking tour before heading home.
