Description

England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland. The seat of Western civilization and one of the most popular travel destinations in the world…but wow is the United Kingdom EXPENSIVE!So, how can you see this diverse, energetic, historic yet modern region without paying through the nose?Did you know the famed Edinburgh Castle, a national symbol of Scotland (which usually costs £16.00 to enter), is free several days throughout the year?Turns out that the U.K. is literally overflowing with free activities, destinations, events, and music, festivals, and more. And that’s what this book is all about: having a good time without spending a dime.Liverpool for museums. Edinburgh for festivals. Armagh for public art (and the Gargoyle trail). There is so many free things to do in the United Kingdom that you can stretch your travel budget across four countries – if you know where to look! While thousands of tourists might spend the afternoon at the gates of Buckingham palace waiting for the changing of the guard, you could be in the know, doing 100% FREE, yet culturally rewarding, activities such as:• Learn to write your name in Ogham, the earliest form of Irish• Scottish parliament and debates• A British Army museum formed in response to Napoleon• First edition of Gulliver’s Travels in Northern Ireland’s oldest library• Views from the second highest church tower in England• Lunchtime recitals at a tiny medieval church• Specimens from Captain James Cook’s voyages • Free comedy night at local pubs • Party at The City of London Festival WHY THIS E-GUIDEBOOK IS DIFFERENTThis book is not about discount travel. It’s about FREE travel. 1) It only includes free activities, events, locations & attractions2) it’s exclusively formatted for the Kindle and Kindle App 3) It’s interactive, so you can easily access directions from your current location, reviews from other travelers, and more information entries in the book.WHAT YOU’LL FIND INSIDEThis e-guidebook grew out of the second edition of the Amazon best selling Free Travel Guide To London (ASIN: B009KVPCI0). Readers had been asking me for more free attractions across the U.K., and I realized that there was demand for an expanded book. Inside you’ll find two books filled with attractions that are always free, sometimes free, or free for certain people. The first half includes 103 free things to do in the U.K. The second half is a full reproduction of The Free Travel Guide To London, with 119 free attractions. Each entry has a well-researched description, contact information (email, phone, website), and links to contextual information. Color photos too! It works great with the Kindle App for your smartphone, so you can get directions from Google. There’s an interactive map, showing you all the free activities and an appendix with free trip planning tools, apps, etc.TABLE OF CONTENTSBook 1: 103 Free Things To Do In The U.K.IntroductionInteractive MapFree Museums Free Art, Literature, and ArchitectureFree Outdoor ActivitiesFree Kids and Family ActivitiesFree TransportationFree Festivals & ParadesFree Tours and WalksQuick Reference By City (excluding London)Appendix: Free Information For Planning Your TripAbout The AuthorBook 2: 119 Free Things To Do In LondonIntroductionInteractive MapFree Music, Theater, and DanceFree MuseumsFree Outdoor ActivitiesFree Kids ActivitiesFree Art, Lit, and ArchitectureFree Transportation and ParkingFree Attractions, Activities & EntertainmentFree Festivals and ParadesFree ToursFlea Markets and Window ShoppingOther Free StuffFree Trip Planning & Traveler ResourcesAbout The AuthorALWAYS CURRENT & UP TO DATEThanks to many loyal readers who email me when information changes and when they find free activities, this book is constantly being updated.
