At a glance
The United Kingdom is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. This guide covers London and Scotland, the two areas our current packages are built around. English is the main language for travel and everyday services, so you can plan most of your trip without another language.
London holds the landmarks most visitors plan first: the British Museum, Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London and the West End. Scotland adds Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile, and the Scottish Highlands are a further option. Outside the big cities, the Lake District, Stonehenge, Bath, Oxford and Cambridge are popular stops.
Heathrow is usually the main long-haul hub for arrivals from India, and Edinburgh is another airport option for a Scotland trip. Our packages are London City Break 4N, London and Scotland 7N and England and Scotland Family 9N, and we can customise any of them. For planning detail, read the United Kingdom travel guide. If you are also considering another country, see our Ireland tour packages.
