Adventurin' Across the UK in 10 Days — UK by Rail | The Travel Intern

We had SUCH A BLAST exploring the UK — we visited Edinburgh in Scotland, explored the areas Bangor, Caernarfon, Snowdonia National Park in Wales, and the beautiful city of London with day trips out. The BritRail pass was actually a real blessing. We only wished we had more time to spend in this beautiful land.

Hear our honest reflections about our UK trip towards the end of the video!

LONDON
00:22 - Trafalgar Square
00:24 - London Eye
As with every trip to London, it wouldn’t be complete without visiting Trafalgar Square and seeing beautiful landmarks like the London Eye, Big Ben (it was under construction when we were there!), Tower Bridge, etc.

00:25 - St Paul’s Cathedral
We highly highly highly recommend getting to the top of the dome (via stairs within the cathedral, of course). It gives you BEAUTIFUL views of the city and it’s pretty cool up there, literally and figuratively :-)

00:28 - Tower Bridge
No, this is not the London Bridge that we sang nursery rhymes about in school. Haha. Check the timings to see when the bridge will be lifted to allow certain vessels to pass!

00:35 - Warner Bros. Studio Tour London
‘Nuff said. Potterheads and non-potterheads alike, please please please go for this. We can’t stress this enough.

00:50 - F Cooke
Try one of London’s oldest living fast foods here! Warning: Jellied eels might not appeal to everyone’s tastebuds, but Sherry did enjoy it. Can’t say the same for Travis though. Tip: The chilli/spicy sauce they provide is pretty amaze~

00:57 - Patty&Bun
Worth getting your hands covered with sauce. Trust. Probably one of the best burgers we’ve had!

01:02 - Borough Market
Hash, Soulfood, Monmouth Coffee
The food haven, really. We picked out Hash, Soulfood and Monmouth Coffee because these really really stood out to us. Super duper yummy!!

01:16 - Camden Market
Vintage lovers would LOVE this place. Especially over the weekend! We weren’t really vintage lovers, but we also enjoyed exploring this market. The food was also amazing. Tip: The grilled cheese sandwich is the BOMB!!!!!! There was only one store serving grilled cheese, and the smell is really strong, so…. It should be easy to spot.

DAY TRIP OUT OF LONDON
01:25 - Windsor Castle
We were there when the royal baby was born! It was especially cool because the vibes were amazing, and people were in such high spirits!

Nevertheless, the Windsor Castle is the world’s biggest and oldest occupied castle. Maybe you could catch a peek of the Queen when you visit!

01:33 - Roman Baths
Visit the ancient Roman baths in… well, Bath. The place is one of the world’s best-preserved religious spas. Get to try a sip of spring water from the springs there too! Again, warning: Might not appeal to everyone’s tastebuds. Interesting though!

01:42 - Stonehenge
How could we not visit the Stonehenge when we’re in UK?? Quite a magical and mystical experience, we have to say.

WALES
01:55 - Snowdonia National Park
We took the Snowdon mountain railway up! In the winter, it doesn’t go to the peak (Llanberis) though. The peak is actually the highest point in Wales! We really enjoyed the hike down too.

02:18 - Ainsworth’s
Super yummy fish&chips are served here. Be sure to try their specialty, mushy peas too! Great meal :-)

02:26 - Caernarfon Castle
Explore the castle and outside of it too! In the evenings, the streets outside the castle have lots of people chilling and having drinks by the river.

EDINBURGH
02:39 - Arthur’s Seat
Hike up to the highest point in Edinburgh! It gets SUPER windy up there, to the point that both of us couldn’t stand straight without holding onto a rock or each other for support. Be dressed appropriately!

02:50 - Edinburgh Castle
Visit some of Scotland’s oldest buildings that are still in this castle!

03:01 - Papii Cafe
Strawberry? Yup. Bacon? Yup. Strawberry and bacon??? WOT?? We had this reaction too. But this place was highly recommended by a friend, and so we decided to give it a try. Omg, the two complemented each other so well atop fluffy, yummy buttermilk waffles! It gets pretty crowded during breakfast, so do come early or try to avoid peak hours.

03:05 - Oink
We chanced upon this little eatery while exploring the streets of Edinburgh. They serve pulled pork roast rolls and the portions are SO generous! We were so stuffed!

03:11 - Calton Hill
We recommend catching the sunset here for gorgeous views of the city!
