United Kingdom

Ancient History, Local Charms

Whether you have your sights set on the bright lights and excitement of the big city, or a vacation filled with quaint local charms is more of your cup of tea, travel to the United Kingdom to find what you're looking for. Home to the bustling world cultures of London as well as the scenic villages along the coastline, there's a little something for everyone.

When to visit

The U.K. has a relatively temperate climate year-round, though the best times to travel to the United Kingdom tend to be in late spring through early fall, when the temperatures are warmest.

Where to visit/What to do

Start with London's famous sights such as the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace -- but then venture out of the city to while away the days in lovely seaside towns such as Brighton. Add a dash of history to your visit at the ancient ruins of Stonehenge or one of the many castles
dotted around England, Scotland and Wales.

Where to Stay

You'll find everything from 5-star hotels in the United Kingdom, all the way down to homey bed and breakfasts. Wherever you stay, be sure to try the afternoon tea -- and don't miss the Indian fare and "chippers" where you can catch the freshest fish and chips around.
