The BritRail London Plus Pass
Parting Will be Such Sweet Sorrow
Everyone loves London. The frenetic pace surrounding quiet gardens, world-class culture and arts and chicken tikka masala that’s better than what you’d find in India. After a week you may want an escape to the quiet countryside. Home to intellectuals, roman ruins and the Bard, Southeast England can be yours with the BritRail London Plus Pass.
With this pass, getting into world-renowned Oxford and Cambridge is a breeze. Journey to Bath, featuring both Georgian architecture, a perfectly preserved Roman temple and spa and Britain’s only natural hot springs. See the magnificent cathedral in Salisbury, home to one of only four original copies of the Magna Carta. And Stratford, how do we love thee? See the home of Shakespeare’s sweetheart and his 1564 birthplace.
This is London – and a little bit more. To go or not to go? What an easy question.
