We had a fantastic trip to Northern England using Global Dream Travel. All of the details were taken care of from meeting our group as we arrived at the airport until we departed six days later. Our host Adam took care of all the details so we were able to fully enjoy our time on the trip. Our local guide, Ruth, is an expert in UK history so we learned so much about the past history of the area. Highlights included Hill Top, home of Beatrix Potter , and a steamer boat ride through the Ullswater Valley in the Lake District. We visited Hadrian's Wall, and the Roman Fort Vindolanda. We went to Alnwick Castle, Whitby, York, took a stream train ride, saw everything "Beatle" in Liverpool, and toured the famous John Ryland Library in Manchester. Hotels were very nice as they included a buffet breakfast every morning and also some dinners. I may have preferred having a hotel within a walkable village ( one was, although a fair distance away, and the other although close, on a busy highway type road) but since most meals were taken care of this really was not an issue. The included meals were quite tasty and we had the chance to make individual choices prior to beginning the trip. We had a good balance of group time versus time for individual exploration. Since I've returned home, the trip seems like a good dream, so the company name Global DREAM Travel makes perfect sense! I highly recommend this company!
