United Kingdom & Ireland Private and Small Group Walking Tours
Famed for their music, theater, literature and sport, these small island nations have had an outsize influence on the world
Situated off the coast of western Europe, the United Kingdom’s four countries—England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland—and the Republic of Ireland have long stood apart from the European mainland, defined by the mingling of their native Celts and Anglo-Saxons with visitors like the Norse, Romans, and Normans.
These unique dynamics are reflected in the UK and Ireland, which all bear distinct customs and traditions but also share a long history of cultural innovation—ranging from illuminated manuscripts to Shakespeare to soccer—not to mention a lively and welcoming pub culture.

We had a wonderful tour with Barbara. Her knowledge of history and horticulture gave us a unique perspective of Kew Gardens. I highly recommend Barbara and look forward to scheduling another tour with her when I get back to the UK.

The tour was very good. Alex was very knowledgeable about the architecture in Glasgow and the history and growth of the city. We enjoyed our tour and glad that we did it.

Anne was an excellent guide as well as an interesting and lovely person. We covered a lot of ground - both historically and physically - on our one-day walking tour of Edinburgh. And we learned so much about the city over the centuries as well as its people and culture today. A perfect immersive experience. Thank you, Anne!
