8-Nights London to Edinburgh Adventure

Goway Travel

This 9-day, tailor-made trip invites you to explore two of the most exciting cities in the British Isles, romantic Edinburgh, and timeless London.

Start things off in London with a vintage double-decker tour, ideal for taking in the sights of one of the world's most exciting cities. Pass by Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and Saint Paul's Cathedral, then disembark for a tour of Buckingham Palace, the official residence of His Majesty the King, followed by a cruise on the Thames, taking in London's icons from its famous waterway. More British icons await on your second day, with a Classic Rock and Beatles tour taking you to Kings Road and other spots synonymous with Swinging 60s London. Walk in the footsteps of Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, and Jimi Hendrix, through to modern-day stars like Adele.

There's so much more to do in London, so take a full day at leisure to enjoy. Perhaps explore the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, the Churchill War Rooms, or the cavernous British Museum. Check out tickets for a West End show that night, or take in a performance at the National Theatre or Shakespeare's Globe on the South Bank. The following day, trek out to Stonehenge, wondering at its mysteries and astronomical precision before returning for your final night in London.

Time to board your train bound for Edinburgh. This romantic city combines regal beauty with a scrappy, down-to-earth attitude that is quintessentially Scottish. Check out some sightseeing ideas while you're on the train, since you'll have a Hop-On Hop-Off sightseeing bus ticket the following day. Your options include Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, the Scottish National Museum, the haunted graveyard at Greyfriar's, Queen Street Gardens, the Royal Mile, HMS Britannia, and so many others.

Need to narrow it down? Save Edinburgh Castle and perhaps the Royal Mile for the following day, when a guided tour takes you to explore their ins and outs. Then set your taste buds dancing Scottish Style with a Johnnie Walker Journey of Flavour. Of course, if you haven't journeyed into the Highlands, you haven't really been to Scotland! A full-day trip takes you to Loch Ness, Glencoe, and the foot of Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis.

Return to Edinburgh for one more day at leisure before you depart. If you're here during the excitement of the Fringe, stop by the box office for same-day deals, or take the bus to Roslyn Chapel to uncover some of its Templar mysteries.
