Choose your itinerary based on ‘Person’, ‘County’ or ‘Duration’…
In this category, itineraries are based on recorded royal progresses. From those undertaken at the beginning of the dynasty, such as Henry VII’s first northern progress in 1486, to the legendary progresses of Elizabeth I in the later sixteenth century, we will be exploring them all little by little and step-by-step!
We will also include other significant journeys undertaken by Tudor monarchs & their consorts, such as Mary I’s flight to Framlingham after hearing of her brother’s death or Anne Boleyn’s 1535 progress alongside Henry VIII.
When you visit one particular part of the UK, you will be keen to make the most of your time and find the most exciting places to visit in the vicinity. This category contains shorter itineraries meant to cater for anything between 2-6 days on the road within a defined and localised area.
Organised by county, we will take you deep into the local Tudor treasures to be found in any geographic region of the UK: the well-known and those well off the usual tourist trail, visiting houses, cathedrals, museums, and parish churches and battlefields.
Sometimes, we have a very defined period of time that we intend to dedicate to immersing ourselves in our love of Tudor history.
For those of you looking for itineraries for a particular duration, we have it covered in TUG! Whether they are bespoke itineraries created just for this category or curated from the other two itinerary categories, you will easily find one that fits the bill. Choose from short weekend itineraries to longer 28-day adventures of a lifetime, we will take you to our favourite locations!
