Thank you for your interest in traveling to England. This land of tea and
beer is also a land of heritage and tradition, richly endowed with style and culture. In fact, England is going through an unprecedented cultural renaissance at the turn of the new millennium. Along with the opening of more art galleries and museums than at any time in our past, several major millennium projects have now opened to visitors and more are planned over the next year or two.
England is the most popular overseas destination for Americans - England's history is familiar from schooldays and the cultural buzz and lifestyle from today's movies, television and music. Traveling from the US to England gets easier each year, as more transatlantic airlines add more services to British Cities such as Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow, as well as London.
