‘Okolo Velke Britanie 1999’…in July 99 we took a coach full of Czech teachers and students around Britain in 10 days. We managed the whole thing for £198 each-including accommodation, food and entrance to several places of interest. Staying at Eurotowers in London we toured the capital before taking the road north with breaks at University town Oxford, Shakespeares Stratford on Avon and the Viking capital of York-where we visited the Viking museum. Staying overnight on the North York’s moors at Osmotherley we continued through Teeside and Tyneside to have a break first at Hadrians wall on the Scots border then Bamburgh castle ( Crossing the forth bridge we hit the Highlands with a short stop at Pitlochry, through the pass of Killicrankie and then a visit to the Dalwhinnie whisky distillery , the battlefield of Culloden and the town of Inverness.( Crossing Rannoch Moor we stayed the night at Killin next to the falls of Dochart and then the next day on by Loch Lomond and through Glasgow to have lunch in the English Lake District. That night , after passing through the mediaeval town of Chester we stayed nearly at the top of the Snowdonian mountains of North Wales where the group went swimming in a mountain lake while others visited the Druid isle of Anglesey and the Castle of Caernarfon ( The next day we wandered down the Welsh/English borders stopping at Hereford city (home of the SAS) and Tintern Abbey on the river Wye. Crossing the Severn bridge back into England we ended up at Crowcombe near Bridgwater and had a party with local musicians. Back to London via the Roman town of Bath and ancient Stonehenge the group had been to north , south ,east and west coast and the only complaint was that we wouldn’t stop on a dangerous highland hairpin bend to take pictures of Prince Charles!! **The same trip was organised in the August but involved 2 minibuses and a group of Czechs,Slovaks,English and American travellers and followed the same route but ended with home hosting in Bridgwater.
