Where to start?

Deciding where to go for your vacation is no easy task. A common mistake is to look at the whole of Europe as a single country and try and do it all in 2 weeks. In reality allowing 3 days to see all of Britain’s ‘best bits’ is totally impossible. You would struggle to do London alone justice in that time! Though it may seem small compared to the size of the whole world, there’s so much to do in Britain that even most Brits don’t manage half of it in a whole lifetime. The moral of the story is give yourself as much time as you possibly can here and we guarantee, you’ll still want to come back and see more.

So let’s be honest, although there is a tourism website for every region of the UK, there are towns that as a visitor may not be quite so interesting for you. Here at GBT we have carefully researched and visited the whole of the UK, scouring the length and breadth of the country to find the best bits, the hidden gems and the places that we know visitors would love to see. We are confident that every place we profile will be thoroughly enjoyable and you’ll be glad you picked it. It’s choosing them that’s the hard part!
