United Kingdom holiday itineraries, crafted just for you

Luxury United Kingdom tours with culture, history and stunning landscapes

The UK is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and each country has distinct regional identities and landscapes that shift dramatically within a few hours. On your luxury UK tour, you will have breakfast in London, lunch at a Cotswolds pub, and dinner on the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales.

Travel with your car and driver, or experience luxury British train journeys – the Caledonian Sleeper from London to Scotland’s east and west coasts, or a multi-night rail tour through the stunning Scottish Highlands on the Belmond Royal Scotsman. You can also speak to your expert travel designer heritage railways such as the Bodmin railway in Cornwall’s countryside, or Scotland’s West Coast and Islands Jacobite steam train (better known as Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Express).

Our travel designers have real insight into this part of the world, and a tremendous amount of first-hand experience. They know which are the best luxury charters for cruising Ullswater in the Lake District and how to time your visit to the Royal Yacht Britannia in Edinburgh’s Leith to avoid the crowds.

Enjoy the United Kingdom’s culinary scene, shaped by tradition, regional and global influences.  Devour delicate afternoon tea at the Ritz in London and dine at the finest acclaimed Michelin-starred restaurants. Breathe in the fresh sea air on coast, finding the best seafood shacks that serve the freshest oysters. Sip fine wines in England and take private tastings at the most interesting whisky distilleries.

A word from one of our experts

What’s wonderful about the United Kingdom is how modern life – restaurants, hotels, pubs, universities, shops – merges completely with castles, Georgian terraces, abbey ruins and honey-coloured Cotswolds cottages. There are centuries of history everywhere you look.

Where to go in the United Kingdom

When to visit the United Kingdom

The United Kingdom rewards visitors throughout the year, though spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) offer particularly appealing conditions. In spring and early summer gardens burst into bloom across England, and Scottish wildflowers reach their peak, then as summer fades, trees turn amber and Scotland’s highlands are carpeted in purple heather. These shoulder seasons conveniently avoid the domestic holiday crowds that arrive in high summer. Rain features in every season – from brief showers to sometimes significant rainfall in the last few months of the year – but rarely derails well-planned itineraries. Winter brings cold temperatures but also Christmas markets, Christmas lights, and Hogmanay in Edinburgh. The key is matching your destination to the season: countryside and coast in warmer months, and urban culture year-round.
