Local Flavor
Fact: French was the official language of England for three centuries (imagine how that must chafe…).
Fact: The English consume more tea per capita than anybody else in the world—nearly 2.5 times more than the Japanese.
Fact: Oxford University once had a rule that specifically forbade students from bringing their bows and arrows into the classroom. (Where were you raised—in a barn?)
Quirky, belovedly eccentric England. What are you waiting for? Get over to the mother country now.
England, Done Privately. 8 Days.
How can such a tidy little island in Europe hold so much? So many stories? So much intrigue? England is, if nothing else, a marvelous pastiche of quirky lives, rich traditions, eccentric (and authentic) little villages, and one of the world’s top cities. (And, believe it or not, home of some of today’s most innovative chefs.)
In fact, England holds out something different for each of us, and for this reason R. Crusoe & Son tailors for you a thoroughly private—and embarrassingly rich—custom journey through the merry auld country.
Need another reason to head for the Motherland? Consider that, at the moment, the British pound has lost a lot of ground against the U.S. dollar. Which means your money goes far in London and beyond.
Perhaps you’d like to see for yourself which is more beautiful, Oxford or Cambridge (we warn you, it’s an incendiary topic)? Or take a very private guided tour of Spencer House, built for the ancestors of the not-very-private late Princess Diana? Maybe it’s time you met Winston Churchill’s granddaughter, Arabella, for a look at Chartwell, Grandfather’s favorite home? And of course, there are England’s best gardens, each a work in progress, each a reflection of the colorful personality of its owner. We can show you around our favorites.
“London: a nation, not a city.” So wrote Benjamin Disraeli, his words as true today as they were more than a century ago. During your holiday,whether you aim to walk in the footsteps of England’s most influential in Mayfair or head across the Thames to the South Bank (once the red-light district and now London’s trendiest neighborhood), we are ready for you and yours.
