London and the Peaks and Lakes of England

Rail trip: London, plus private tours of the Lakes, Peaks, and Dales.

London and the Peaks and Lakes of England is an independent rail package from Railbookers covering 7 days and 6 nights within the United Kingdom. The trip begins in London, where an All-Inclusive Pass covers sightseeing at the city's landmarks and attractions. From there, the route continues to Manchester, which serves as a base for private tours of the Lake District, Peak District, and Yorkshire Dales. The trip then returns to London for a final night before it ends. Because the northern portion of the trip is built around private tours rather than self-guided excursions, it suits travelers who want a guided look at England's countryside paired with independent time to explore London on their own.
