Contiki has cut £82 off its six-day England to Edinburgh tour, so the 23 September departure is now £743. That gets you from London to Edinburgh via Windsor, Bath, Oxford, Liverpool, York and the Lake District, with five hotel nights and the transport between them already sorted.
It is aimed at 18 to 35s, and this is not a flight-inclusive package. But if you are happy getting yourself to London and home from Edinburgh, it is a very tidy way to turn a lot of Britain into one week rather than a tangle of separate trains and hotel bookings.
What the £743 covers
Contiki lists five nights in hotels, five breakfasts, one dinner, internal coach travel, an expert Trip Manager and local guides, plus six included experiences. The live £743 price is for a twin or twin-share room on the 23 September Classic departure, reduced from £825.
You start in London on Wednesday 23 September and finish in Edinburgh on Monday 28 September. The route includes Windsor, Bath, Bristol, Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester, York, the Lake District, Carlisle and Hadrian’s Wall.
How to book
Open Contiki’s 23 September booking page, keep the room type at twin or twin-share and check the total still shows £743 before paying. Contiki says you can secure the trip with a £60 deposit, but read the final payment and cancellation terms before committing.
