A Tour of Great Britain

You must plan a tour of Great Britain for 10 Japanese tourists. During their stay, they want to see as much of Great Britain as possible as they have heard many wonderful things about it.
They will arrive at London Heathrow on Monday 8th December at 8.00am and will depart from London Heathrow on Saturday 13th December at 10.00pm.

Your guests wish to see the following places:

  • A town or City
  • A River
  • A seaside area
  • An industrial area
  • Mountains or Hills

    They will be travelling in a minibus by road but only wish to travel 180 miles per day maximum.

Your task:

1. You will decide the ideal route to cover all of the criteria – REMEMBER you can only travel 180 miles per day.

2. On the itinerary sheet provided, show your workings out for mileage – you will need to give this to the minibus driver.

3. To load the itinerary sheet – click here

4. On your individual maps show your chosen route (by drawing an arrow in red).

5. Produce an itinerary (day by day plan) for your guests so they know what they have got to look forward to each morning. Your itinerary may be presented in the form of a brochure in either a word document or a power point slide show.

6. Use the internet (e.g. GOOGLE) to do your research or perhaps ENCARTA if you have that on your computer at home

Include:

  • The name of the place that you will travel to.
  • The location of the chosen place.
  • Any other useful information about the place.

REMEMBER TO MAKE THE TOUR SOUND AMAZING IN YOUR ITINERARY!
