Jour 1

Welcome to your tour with Europamundo! We’ll transfer you to the hotel and you’ll have some free time. In the afternoon, you’ll find information about the start of your tour on the boards located at the hotel reception.

Jour 2

We’ll begin the morning with a panoramic tour of London, visiting iconic landmarks such as Westminster, the Parliament, the City, and the Thames. The afternoon will be at your leisure.Note: If the total number of travelers in London is fewer than 10, instead of the panoramic tour, our guide will provide you with tickets for a hop-on hop-off bus tour, with audio explanations through headphones that you can use throughout the day.

Jour 3

After breakfast, we’ll head north, traveling to Cambridge, a historic university town renowned for its university founded in 1209. You’ll have time to stroll among its impressive neoclassical Gothic buildings, canals, and residential colleges. We’ll then continue through the interior of England, where pleasant landscapes will lead us to Coventry, a city known for its rich history and significant role in the car industry. Its cathedral, destroyed during World War II, has become a symbol of peace and reconciliation. Next, we’ll head to Liverpool, where we’ll enjoy a brief bus tour of this World Heritage Site, the second-largest port in the United Kingdom, famously associated with the Beatles.

Our journey will continue to Birmingham, the second-largest city in the UK, which played a key role during the Industrial Revolution. Today, it’s a vibrant hub of economic and cultural activity.
