The United Kingdom may be similar in size to a singular US State but don't be fooled!  There is a lot of ground to cover and thought public transportation is very good you could spend your entire trip commuting. Let's set realistic expectations.

UK Regions Compared To US States

Here is one of the ways I discuss traveling the UK, specifically England with my clients and how you might also.  This itinerary will likely take you 7 - 10 days to complete.  Don't forget to book end your English trip with travel days. Regulations are constantly changing.  This is no time to last minute book it to the air port.  Plan accordingly!
