This is a repost from the community board when a few people suggested I post here.
I have a trip in September to London for a few days then renting a car and driving to Bath, Cardiff, Stratford-Upon-Avon, and Oxford before coming back home.
Some things I could use some help with:
Any must do suggestions for things to do in the locations that aren't London? (Trip is just 2 adults no kids) I have some ideas in each but could use more input. London I have more items I really want to do then I'll probably have time for so not as concerned about that one. Stratford-Upon-Avon and Oxford I have the least plans for.
Train tickets. We want to do the train from Gatwick to London and back. We are staying near Kings Cross/St Pancras. Should I buy tickets ahead of time or when I get there? If I buy ahead of time what if my flight gets delayed?
What about the oyster cards is there any benefit to getting visitor ones now vs just getting them when we get there?
Any other recommendations? We haven't done too much pre planning for this one (seriously compared to our disney trips I feel like we are just hopping on a plane and seeing what happens) so nothing like food or even alot of the activities are too set yet we have a list of things we really want to do, other then that are kind of winging it.
