Your expert British Tours guide will take you through some of the thousands of years of history of this island from the Saxons to the Romans to the Tudors to the Victorians as you travel through the stunning Chiltern hills, the backdrop to many a TV series and film, Midsommer Murders for example.

You will pass through quaint villages and historic towns and deep into the beautiful countryside to meet Metal Mickey, your metal detecting expert!
