Gardens of England & Ireland

18 days
21 May to 7 June 2010

If you have always promised yourself that "someday" you would find the right way to explore the beautiful countryside, historic towns and picturesque villages of England, that day has come. The essence of Britain is to be found in its historic towns and tiny villages, nestled among some of the loveliest countryside in the world.

Few British institutions - the football match, the back garden, and a "nice cup of tea" are as important as the garden. On our English and Irish garden tour, you will see gardens made famous on television, grand gardens that have developed over the centuries, and even small, private gardens, very much the domain of their owners.

Treat your senses to the truly fantastic array of sights and smells around Great Britain's gardens, from grand designs attached to stately homes to the secret delights and private passions of many individuals' more modest homes. You don't need to know a lot, because the tours are relaxed, very sociable affairs that you can enjoy at any level.
