FOR Middle East guests looking for the ideal family getaway, England offers unforgettable family-fun experiences all within close proximity to London.
Alton Towers, Legoland, Chester Zoo and historic Stonehenge are just some of the top attractions on offer throughout the summer months.
“A great attraction or activity can often make the perfect holiday. Middle East families should take advantage of England’s great summer weather and endless activities and events, all within close proximity to major cities across England,” said Carol Maddison, UAE manager, VisitBritain.
Chester Zoo, located two hours away from London by train, houses more than 7,000 animals and 400 different species, including some of the most endangered species on the planet.
Legoland, just under an hour from London, offers a full day of fun where kids can take advantage of more than 50 thrilling rides, shows and attractions. Visitors can also see some of the most exciting cities in the world at Miniland - which uses 35 million Lego pieces to create scenes from London, Paris and Amsterdam.
Located in Wiltshire, Stonehenge is just under two hours from London by train. Stonehenge stands impressively as a prehistoric monument of unique importance, a World Heritage Site, surrounded by the remains of ceremonial and domestic structures - some older than the monument itself.
