Great Side Trips from London

 

Narrated by Rick Steves

30 minutes; European Travel Guide

 

 

After starting with a double-decker bus tour in London, our camera zooms in on Cabinet War Rooms where Churchill plotted against Hitler, the Tate Gallery and the reconstructed Globe Theatre. With London as home base, Rick and his family take day trips to Stratford—ShakespeareÕs birthplace—Warwick Castle and Cambridge before moving on to York. Then, Gothic architecture is the topic as we wander through York Cathedral. Along the way, we stop for traditional English tea. After a steam engine trip through the moors, we board the Eurostar to zoom under the Channel.
