The American traveler to England follows mostly a set familiar route: London, Bath, the Cotswolds, Stratford-on-Avon, maybe Yorkshire, Cornwall, and the Lake District. But in between these honey-pot destinations, there is a whole country in there that is widely passed through and over. There are whole counties in which the novice traveler is completely unfamiliar, and thus miss a great deal of what makes England, well, England. This course will provide an opportunity and an itinerary to visit the lesser-known landscape and treasures of England.
