My family from the US came over for my birthday celebrations in March and arranged a 2-day private tour with Andrew and Graham. In a nutshell, it was amazing. It was just before lock-down when things were starting to close and have limited access, but Andrew managed to change the schedule accordingly to ensure that still we got the most out of the tour.

He and Graham were great company and by the end of the 2 days' we had all bonded! My cousin uses a wheelchair and they seem-lessly assisted him in and out of the vehicle.

We had a great time and saw so much in a short time. Andrew's extensive knowledge on each destination was captivating and his passion for the subjects he talked about was evident.

Highly recommend - you will have an amazing time! Thank you again :)

Lisa F Private tour of Royal London

We came in for a week to visit family and did a private and personalized tour of the London area with Luxury Vacations UK. Everything went fabulous! We had two tour guides, Andrew and Graham, and traveled in style in a very comfortable 15 seat Mercedes minibus for two full days. They even had a professional SLR camera and took some nice group photos for us. Their friendly nature and deep personal knowledge of British history made the experience of visiting some of the castles and churches only that much better.

There were some special needs for one of us and they took care of getting a scooter rented and available for us the whole time we were there. if you are planning to visit the UK, and want to do it "right" then I highly recommend their services. Thanks again Luxury Vacations UK!

Michael M The only way to see London! - Private tour of Royal London

We used their services for a week when we visited London in May of 2019. They were very professional, on time in picking us up at our hotel, and the van was impeccable. Also, they bought the tickets for the attractions we visited which was so helpful for a party of 18.

We were delighted with the tour guides and driver who were wonderful to us. Especially Andrew, who upon learning of our granddaughter's birthday, bought her a book about birds which she loves.

I would highly recommend them and would certainly use them again.

Luxury vacations tour of Wales and England Our group of four ladies had a fabulous five day private tour with Luxury Vacations. After a one day tour in London, our private guide Chris Abbott joined us for the remainder of our trip. Chris was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, easy going, fun and flexible. Chris was even able to put up with four loud, laughing ladies for four days—quite a gentleman.

The staff at Luxury Vacations were polite and made it easy to plan our trip. They worked with us to plan a trip that catered to our specifications. Our accommodations were picturesque and high end.

Popular England Travel Styles

Summer is stunning in England but is also the most popular time for tourists. To avoid the crowds and enjoy comfortable weather outside of summer, we recommend you visit in spring, from March to May, or in fall, from September to November.

Spring brings warmer days and less rain, perfect for sightseeing, exploring the English countryside, and visiting botanical gardens or historic castles. The weather is cooler in the fall, and there are fewer tourists. During this time, fall foliage covers the Lake District and the Cotswolds, and food festivals showcase seasonal cuisine.

While spring and fall are excellent times, England is a year-round destination. Summer and winter are appealing for their  reasons, whether you wish to enjoy summer’s long daylight hours or visit winter’s Christmas markets.

Regardless of when you can visit, we can help you find the right month for your trip in our guide on the best time to visit England .

From cosmopolitan cities to medieval villages in the countryside and breathtaking natural landscapes, England offers no shortage of exceptional places to explore. Here are a few of our best places to visit in England :

• London : Visit world-famous museums, explore vibrant neighborhoods, dine at Michelin-starred restaurants, and see landmarks like Big Ben and Buckingham Palace on a trip to the capital.
