As we leave summer behind and enter the autumn months, the UK will change before our eyes. Its most recognisable landscapes will soon be draped in golden leaves, famous peaks will be topped with snow, and mysterious mist will embrace our treasured landmarks.
Rabbie’s (www.rabbies.com) is offering tours throughout our transformed nation, on which we’ll fall in love with the UK all over again.
The award-winning small-group tour operator has departures across the UK throughout the autumn months, and with its guaranteed departure policy – those who book are certain to travel (and have a great time). Every adventure promises new experiences, gorgeous views, local stories from an insightful driver-guide and an unforgettable exploration.
- Discover natural beauty in the borders: The land that separates Scotland and England has seen conflict in its time, visits to the magnificent Alnwick Castle and the ruins of Kelso Abbey will tell you as much. But in this landscape, natural beauty still reigns supreme. The River Tweed weaves gracefully through the region and an evening drive along the Northumberland coastline will show sandy beaches painted in glorious dusk shades. For some, nothing is cosier than a well-stocked bookshop. This tour stops at one of the largest and most impressive second-hand book shops in Britain, the perfect opportunity to stock up on some autumn reading! Prices for this one-day tour of Alnwick Castle, the Northumberland Coast & the Borders start at £47.
- Holiday like the Romans in Bath: The city’s bath complex must have been the perfect destination for Roman settlers seeking refuge from Britain’s unpredictable autumnal weather. Today it is a must-visit attraction for those wishing to peek back in time. Travellers to this gorgeous city can also admire its splendid architecture and medieval cathedral. Be sure to take shelter from autumnal winds in one of the splendid emporiums or designer boutiques. One of the many Rabbie’s tours that incorporate Bath is the Stonehenge, Glastonbury, Bath & the South West Coast tour. Few sights are more magical that seeing Stonehenge, the ancient world wonder, on a crisp and misty autumn morning. This 3-day tour departs from London and starts at £169.
- Experience the snow-capped peaks of Northern Scotland: Northern Scotland boasts a wild landscape and nothing complements this more than a sprinkling of snow atop the peaks. Skye’s Cuillin Mountains look more epic, Glencoe’s curves look larger than life, and the landscapes of the North Coast 500 look even more striking at this time of year. The days may be a little shorter, but if you’re an avid photographer, the gentle light will ensure some majestic shots. Take a North Coast 500 3-day tour with Rabbie’s, departing from Inverness from £159.
