During your 14-day English adventure, you'll have the chance to experience all that is typical of the British countryside. This rather intimate cruise is bursting with new experiences. You'll discover that England isn't just London and the Thames. Narrow canals with even narrower tunnels take you through a particularly rural landscape, a pleasant change from theVisits to the local major cities, including Worcester, Birmingham and Stratford, will be a pleasant diversion. It's up to you which of these cities you visit and which you choose to miss out on for a change. From Stone, continue south towards Stourport and from there to Tewkesbury, a town in Cloucestershire. Tewkesbury is situated at the confluence of the River Severn and the River Avon. The town of Pershore, through which the River Avon flows, is the site of an annual plum-growing festival in August. On this cruise, you'll experience much of the local folklore as well as the historical sites.
