13 Day UK & Ireland Itinerary, incl. London and Edinburgh
Your 13-day British Isles tour features Stonehenge, Dublin's Guinness Storehouse, and Edinburgh Castle. Quality hotels include Park Inn Cardiff and Braids Hill Edinburgh, with expert guides rated 4.8/5 leading cultural experiences.
- Days 1-2
England & Wales
Leave London early at 8:30 AM to avoid traffic. Visit Stonehenge before 11 AM when it gets busy. Next stop is Bath, where you'll want comfortable shoes for the Roman baths. "The Roman baths are incredible, but bring good shoes as the ancient stones get very slippery." Stay overnight in Cardiff before moving on to Stratford-upon-Avon and Liverpool. Plan about 2-3 hours to explore Beatles sites in Liverpool.
- Days 3-4
Dublin & Eastern Ireland
Catch the morning ferry from Liverpool to Dublin. It takes about 2.5 hours. "Don't miss the evening atmosphere at Temple Bar, but eat dinner elsewhere as prices are inflated in that area." Start your Dublin sightseeing at the Guinness Storehouse when it opens to avoid crowds. The next day, check out Waterford and Blarney Castle. "Go early to kiss the Blarney Stone - lines get very long by midday."
- Days 5-7
Western Ireland
Stay in Killarney to explore the Ring of Kerry. Drive clockwise to avoid tour buses. One visitor shared: "The jaunting car ride through Killarney National Park was a highlight - but bring rain gear as weather changes quickly." Visit the Cliffs of Moher around 4 PM for good light and smaller crowds. Leave time for Galway, especially Shop Street with its traditional music.
- Days 8-9
Northern Ireland & Scottish Highlands
Walk Derry's walls and see the Giant's Causeway. Book Titanic Belfast tickets online to skip the lines. Take the ferry to Scotland and drive into the Highlands. "The Glencoe photo stops are incredible but bring windproof layers - it's much colder than you'd expect."
- Days 10-11
Edinburgh
Take two full days to explore Edinburgh. "Book Edinburgh Castle tickets for first entry and head straight to the Crown Jewels before crowds build." Walk the Royal Mile early or late in the day. Consider a side trip to Stirling Castle if you want a less crowded castle experience.
- Days 12-13
Northern England & Return
Stop at Alnwick Castle and historic York. "York Minster is stunning but save time for walking the city walls - it's the best way to see the city." End with punting in Cambridge before heading back to London. The drive takes about 1.5 hours but plan for more during rush hour.
13 Days in UK & Ireland, incl. Glasgow and Dublin
Celtic heritage unfolds over 13 days across 18 cities. Step inside Edinburgh Castle, Irish National Stud, and Giant's Causeway. The route includes Blair Castle, Lake District, and Titanic Belfast experience, featuring 12 breakfasts, 5 dinners, and quality hotel stays.
- Days 1-2
Scottish Highlands
Begin in Glasgow exploring the 12th-century cathedral and Georgian squares. Travel north through the Highlands along Loch Lomond and Loch Linnhe. "Watching the magic and mystery of the Scottish moors was humbling - bring layers as the weather changes quickly in the Highlands." Visit Fort William near Ben Nevis before continuing to Loch Ness. Stay overnight in Inverness.
- Days 3-4
Edinburgh & Castle
Start at Culloden battlefield before visiting Blair Castle. Take a guided tour of Edinburgh's medieval Old Town and elegant New Town. Visit Edinburgh Castle early at 9am to avoid crowds and see Scotland's Crown Jewels. "Ascending Castle Rock to explore Edinburgh Castle with its 1,100-year history was incredible. The Military Tattoo performances in August made it even more special."
- Day 5
Lake District & Liverpool
Enter England's Lake District and stop at Grasmere to try the local gingerbread from 1854. Visit The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool. "The Lake District roads can be narrow - our driver showed amazing skill navigating the coach through the stunning countryside."
- Days 6-7
Dublin Highlights
Take a ferry from Holyhead to Dublin. Visit O'Connell Street, Georgian squares, Trinity College and St. Patrick's Cathedral from the 12th century. "Dublin's personality really shines through in its historic sites and lively pubs - the locals are so welcoming."
- Days 8-9
Ring of Kerry
Start at the Irish National Stud farm in Kildare to learn about horse racing traditions. Visit the Rock of Cashel on your way to Killarney. Drive the Ring of Kerry coastal route and stop in Adare village to see traditional thatched cottages. "The Ring of Kerry offers breathtaking ocean views - but bring motion sickness pills if you're sensitive to winding roads."
- Days 10-11
Cliffs & Giants
See the 668-foot Cliffs of Moher. Walk Derry's historic walls with a local guide in Northern Ireland. Visit the unique hexagonal basalt columns at Giant's Causeway. "Get to the Cliffs of Moher early - fog often rolls in by afternoon."
- Days 12-13
Belfast & Glasgow
Explore the Titanic Belfast exhibition before taking the ferry back to Scotland. Complete your journey in Glasgow. "The Titanic museum gives incredible insight into Belfast's shipbuilding heritage - plan at least 2 hours to do it justice."

Although we seemed to spend more time on the bus than seeing the sites, the group was fun, hotels clean and comfortable and food offerings tasty, and we did see a lot of my "bucket list" sites.
- Celtic Highlights
The itinerary. I do not think we would have ever seen so much of these countries if we had tried to do this on our own. I did feel a little rushed sometimes and would have liked to stay another 30 minutes here and there. So I do think there could be some adjustments made for a few stops.

Bus driver/guide in Ireland, John, was excellent!
