United Kingdom

Adventure Holidays in the UK

There’s no denying that the UK is a nation steeped in layers of tradition and fascinating history, which makes it a great place to explore by foot and by bike. From the legendary, murky lochs and heather-clad moors of Scotland to the limestone outcrops and iron age forts in Wales and the enchanting honey-coloured Cotswolds villages of England, it comes as no surprise that these spectacular landscapes have captured the imaginations of travellers for centuries. Inland and coastal routes criss-cross the island, meaning Holidays in the UK can be as varied as anywhere else in the world, despite its relatively small size.

The expert local guides on our guided tours offer a wealth of information about the history, folklore and legends that have shaped the nation. From enjoying exhilarating hikes through Britain’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on our trip in the Gower Peninsula to traditional whiskey tours and the wild scenery of our Walk the North Highland Way trip, we showcase some of the best these islands have to offer. For two-wheel aficionados, the South Wales Coast offers a wonderful opportunity to explore, while those looking for the perfect marriage of culinary and natural tradition won't be disappointed by the delights of Cornwall.

Equally, another wonderful way to appreciate the unique cultures, charms and distinct local flavours each part of the United Kingdom has to offer is on a self-guided walking holiday in the UK. Trips like these give you the chance to see the past come alive, from ancient smugglers' coves on the Jurassic Coast paths to landscapes that inspired some of the world’s most beloved writers and philosophers. Classic Lake District adventure holidays are a staple among travellers, with a picturesque viewpoint never far away. Routes are surprisingly well waymarked, meaning our self-guided tours are ideal for walkers and cyclists wanting to go at their own pace.
