Stratford-upon-Avon, England Shakespeare's Birthplace

Pub hop by canal boat.

Hire a boat at Stratford Canal, drift down the waterway and pull into one of the 54 locks to grab a pint at one of Shakespeare Country's finest pubs. Yes, you could walk to the pub too as you wave out to Anne Hathaway's Cottage or Mary Arden's House on the way. Get a backstage pass to one of the most famous theatre companies in the world. Tours of the Royal Shakespeare Company stages are free and allow you to tread the boards where some of the most famous actors of the English stage once stood.

Birmingham, England The 'Balti Triangle'

Get lost in the "Balti Triangle."

Little trivia question for you. Which city in the Heart of England has invented its own Curry concoction? Birmingham. The Birmingham "Balti" is served in a flaming dish for a touch of dramatic flair and certainly is delicious. Try it in the areas around Ladypool Road, Stoney Lane and Stratford Road. Ready for dessert? Nearby Cadbury World is a chocoholic's paradise, where you can make your own chocolate if you so please.
