White Cliffs Of Dover Hike To Kingsdown – English Coast

White Cliffs of Dover are a famous, picturesque site in the south-east of England. These chalk cliffs offer an abundance of walking routes, all with great views of the English Channel. I’ve had a chance to visit the White Cliffs of Dover a couple of times in the past, but each of those times I only had a few hours to spend there – not enough to explore a large area. So, I decided it was time to schedule a day trip to Dover, to properly find out what it’s got to offer. The day was incredibly foggy and I didn’t get the greatest views, but I still enjoyed the serene landscape of the cliffs, and ended up doing a long hike. Here’s how that day trip went, with lots of photos!

Unusual Sights In The British Seaside – Brighton, Southend-on-sea

Living in London, I’ve had numerous chances to go on day trips to various seaside resorts. There are several coastal towns that I can get to in under 90 minutes, and I try to make the most of it. I don’t always post about those trips. In all honesty, having been to Brighton over a dozen times, I don’t discover anything new there anymore. However, this January, I went on two day trips to the seaside, and experienced two memorable events. And I just had to share them here. Keep reading to find out what I saw!

Visiting Stonehenge, England – Day Trip With Public Transport – Stonehenge Tour Review Plus Old Sarum

Stonehenge, the characteristic and mysterious site famous around the world, has been on my list of places to visit for absolute ages. But despite living in London, a mere 80 miles away, for 6 years, I only finally managed to visit Stonehenge a couple of weeks ago. The main reason why I postponed that trip for so long was that it seemed tricky to get to without a car. However, there are ways! In this post, I will tell you about getting to Stonehenge, but also describe the visit itself. Here is how the trip was organised, and most importantly, what you can expect from visiting Stonehenge.
