Even though I have this tour company on my Hot Link list in the right-hand column, check out a few of their newest tours for 2016.

Shakespeare Tour  in April – one of 6 literary tours on offer

Downton Abbey in September – one of 9 Film and TV-themed tours, along with Sherlock and Wolf Hall.  There used to be a film and TV location map put out by British Tourism but that was 20 years ago and the interest in visiting filming locations has exploded with  the increase in productions and the word-of-mouth / screen of social media.

Richard III  – one of 15 history tours available

Tours International has several other categories of group tours and they will also set up private tours.

Explanation (of sorts) – I’m not compensated for singing T-I’s praises (worse luck), this is the outfit Dad and I booked for our May 2002 Normandy Tour (search ‘Normandy’ for the 3 posts I wrote describing our adventure). A terrific experience; I’d love to take more of their tours myself.
