Heart of England for Groups
Find the best Historic Day trips for your group
At Greatdays Group Travel we can offer your group an amazing look at some of England’s rich History and industrial heritage. See the beauty of the medieval town of Ludlow with it’s castle, cobbled streets and the all-important market. Over to scenic Shrewsbury on the banks of the River Severn, a once thriving wool town and now the host for the popular Shrewsbury Flower Show. In contrast, Ironbridge and Bridgnorth herald the birthplace of industry with the famous Iron Bridge built at the height of the Industrial Revolution. Marvel at the Peak District with pretty Derbyshire towns and villages, still taking part in ancient practices such as Well Dressing today.
Greatdays customers over the years have loved the river trip on the Sabrina Boat and the magnificent carvery served up at the Punchbowl Inn. Beautiful Warwickshire wins hearts with the fairytale houses and Shakespearean connections. Your specially selected tour guides will enthrall you with history and stories as you relax and enjoy the majestic scenery.
