Are you an obsessive planner who likes to take care of every detail in advance and hates surprises? Or is your travel style more of the laid back explorer, who goes with the flow?
If you're coming to the UK for the Olympics, it would be a shame not to use this once in a lifetime opportunity to do a bit of touring around the country. But whether it is a relaxed and enjoyable experience or a stressful and expensive nightmare depends, at least in part, on how you get around - what mode of transportation you use.
The thing is, there isn't a right or wrong way to travel around England, Scotland and Wales. It all depends on what you'd like to experience and what you'd rather avoid. I've looked at three different ways to travel the highways and byways of the UK, considering the pros and cons of each and matched them with the most common travel personalities I come across in my own journeys.
Before you hit the road, or the rails, consider How to Get Around the UK- Transportation That Suits Your Travel Style and tailor a trip that will make you happy.
