Why does the June 22 departure UK tour say it's not available in my region? I just wanted the 6 day/5 night tour, not the 9 days.

The 6-day Real Britain itinerary without London overnights is currently only available in regions outside of the USA and Canada. If you are based in the US or Canada, we can only offer the 9-day version. This ensures that travelers arrive comfortably, don't miss any activities on the first day, and have a smooth departure at the end of the tour. Even with the 6-day version, extra nights in London are still recommended since the tour begins early in the morning and ends late in the afternoon. The included London nights in the US/Canada version are designed to make your experience more convenient and worry-free.

Where does this tour start from . Where is the meeting place

You will meet and depart from Hilton London Kensington. The tour departs the London hotel between 05:00–08:00 AM. Because of the early departure, a pre-night stay in London is required and is not included in the tour package. This can be booked either through Trafalgar or independently. If you arrange your own accommodation, please ensure you arrive at the London hotel at least 30 minutes before departure on Day 1.

Where are we on December 31? Do we have triple rooms? What star rating are the hotels?

On December 31, you will be in York, England. Triple rooms can be booked subject to availability, but they are best suited for two adults and one child. Hotels are typically 3- to 4-star properties, chosen for comfort, quality, and convenience to sightseeing.

Do you have dates for July 2026? Around the 18th/19th of July 2026.

We do have available date on 18-Jul-2026, that will cost US$2,835.00 per person based in a twin room. Please note, trip rate is subject to change.

What is the luggage allowance for the tour?

Each traveler can bring one suitcase not exceeding 50 lbs and one piece of hand luggage fitting under the coach seat.

What is time and starting point of this departure? Is this a guaranteed departure?

This was our first Trafalgar tour and it was amazing. Our tour director, Rose, was one of the best I have ever had. She knew the culture of all three countries, knew the music which she played for us and knew the interesting tidbits.

The tour was well thought out and very well planned. Stops were thoughtful also keeping in mind to show us more of the important history and architecture. Vanessa was a fantastic guide and Justin was just the best coach driver. Porterage was so unexpected and so so fantastic. We loved it. The hotels were good and had all amenities but maybe a notch higher quality with even a higher price on tour would have been ok for us as a family. Novotel was the best stop on the hotels. Holiday Inn Edinburgh was way off shoot to do things in the city. All in all a fantastic tour. We highly recommend it and did so to many. Kudos on all the effortShow more
