Enchanting Eastern England
Overview
Trace your way along the East of England, where the North York Moors enthrall with sweeping vistas and university cities charm with centuries-old architecture. Discover the romance of this enchanting region as you glide along the glistening River Cam on a traditional punt, soak up the cosy chatter in a rustic pub with a freshly poured pint, and marvel at the grandeur of Sandringham Estate’s picturesque house and gardens. This adventure is sure to capture your heart.
Please note: if you’re departing on 13 July, 10 August or 5 October 2025, you’ll visit the breathtaking Burghley House & Gardens instead of Sandringham Estate.

6th October 2024Review ratingGiovanni and Ash were great. I was amazed at Gio’s preparation and narration and “Ash’s” driving skills especially the many tight, “backroads” situations. My wife and I had a couple of hotel issues that Gio was very helpful in resolving.

3rd October 2024Review ratingWe did the Enchanting Eastern England tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although you do need some fitness. Lots of walking and trying to keep up with guide. However, it was well-worth it. The guide was very knowledgeable. Bus driver was also extremely courteous and great to talk to. Bus was always clean. Saw plenty of cathedrals, visited lots of places and the accommodation was great. Some places we stayed were really amazing, others were fine. Bus genuinely took us on the backroads. Very good quality trip overall.
