England
American travelers cannot get enough of England, and to this day it consistently ranks in the three most popular European countries in terms of visitors per year. Nearly everyone visits London, one of the world`s most important cities and the epicenter of what was once a vast world empire, but England should definitely be explored in-depth, from the charm of the Cotswolds to the seaside resorts on the English Channel and the Irish Sea to the beautiful landscapes of the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, and the Westcountry. England is a country where the present day and over a millennia of history routinely intersect.

Now a bustling city of over 25,000 people that sees over two million visitors a year, the Stratford of Shakespeare's day was little more than a village. The main attractions within the town include the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust and two contemporary buildings, Hall's Croft (the one-time home of Shakespeare's daughter, Susannah) and New Place, the latter built on the site of an earlier house where the playwright died in 1616. Visit Shakespeare's Birthplace, Anne Hathaway's Cottage, Holy Trinity Church, Stratford Butterfly Farm, Hall's Croft, Tudor World, Shakespeare's Funerary, Shakespeare`s Schoolroom and Guildhall, Shakespeare's New Place, Nash`s House, Charlecote Park, Mary Arden's Farm, The Falstaff's Experience, Gower Memorial, and so much more!
