England

A Complete Backpacker's Guide

Step Into a Land of Kings and History

Renowned the world-over for its royal family, literary heroes, stunning countryside, and a rich cultural past, England is high up on many adventurers’ bucket lists.

From the natural beauty of the lake district to the modern metropolis that is London, travellers can expect to be immersed in a unique nation that is as modern as it is historically significant. Travelling the length and breadth of the country you will find each region in this small island nation has its own history, culture, and activities to dive in to. England’s varied and significant past is visible wherever you step foot as you move through small villages, rolling countryside, costal towns, and modern cities.

Bordered by the equally fascinating Wales and Scotland which make up Britain, England is chocked full of adventures for travellers of every breed. Fragments of English culture have found their way into all corners of the world. The story has been written over thousands of years of history. It’s time to see it for yourself.
