Why United Kingdom?
The nation of United Kingdom is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It is a study in diversity – the birthplace of Shakespeare and The Beatles, the financial and cultural hub of London, the site of Neolithic Stonehenge, the Roman spa of Bath, the centuries-old universities at Oxford and Cambridge…
Each of the four nations that make up Great Britain, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are distinctive in character, customs, food and language! Lose yourself in the undulating green hills and gorgeous coastlines of the South West of England or check out the football scene in Liverpool and Manchester or soak in the charm and pace of busting London with the many museums and historical significance… Get drenched in magic amidst the magical Glens and Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland or in the company of the Loch Ness monster or maybe sample Haggis and fine whisky in the Scottish Highlands… Adventure your thing? Head for the castles and and ancient forests of Wales for ziplining, coasteering, treetop walks, etc.
