Hi everyone,
Our last trip was Alaska in 2019, came home and was dx with breast cancer and then went into pandemic mode. I am all cleared to travel ! So looking to get back into the swing. This site was fantastci when we planned our 2 weeks in France in 2018, so looking to get some ideas for England.
While driving in France was fine, we absolutely do not want to drive in England. So think that for this trip we would spend 4 or 5 days in London and then go to Amsterdam for another 4 or 5 days.
WIll have a healthy budget, prefer hotels or inns over Air Bnb. Fine with public transportation, but also love to walk cities. Looking at late September to early October.
Interests:
Roman ruins ( could take a day trip to an interesting site )
History - especially the tudors and the plantagents
Old cathedrals and churches
WWI history (Churchhill museum maybe)
National gallery / Tower etc.
Not interested in:
present day royalty
theatre ( see plenty at home)
Favorite way to tour -
We like to wander around a city, we enjoy private guided tours and the hop on hop off bus might be an option if not too slow or crowded.
Any thoughts and ideas are welcome.
Karen
