Southampton is the largest city of Hampshire on the south coast of England. Southampton is a major port.  It was the point of departure for the RMS Titanic in 1912.

Newhaven is a district in the City of Edinburgh, Scotland, between Leith and Granton and about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the city centre that was formerly a village and harbour on the Firth of Forth. Newhaven was designated a conservation area, one of 40 such areas in Edinburgh, in 1977.

It has a very distinctive building form, typical of many Scottish fishing villages, with a 'forestair' leading to accommodation at first floor level. The lower ground floor was used for storing nets. More modern housing dating from the 1960s has replicated the style of these older buildings.

Victoria Primary School, established in the 1840s, is a historic building in Newhaven Main Street and the oldest local council primary school still in use within the City of Edinburgh. It has a school roll of around 145 children.

The new Western Harbour development extends north into the Firth of Forth from Newhaven. It is also the home of Next Generation Sports Centre (now named David Lloyd Newhaven Harbour), where the tennis player Sir Andy Murray regularly played as a youngster.

The Isle of Skye is the largest and most northerly large island in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland, the 2nd largest island in Scotland and the 4th largest in the UK. Portree, the main town and capital on the island, set round its natural harbour and fringed by high ground and cliffs, is a bustling port and a thriving cultural centre. The town is a popular base for exploring the rest of the island. Portree is also the cultural hub for Skye and one of its main attractions, the award-winning Aros Centre, runs regular theatre, concerts and film screenings. For souvenir, buy colourful Celtic batiks and gorgeous hand loomed cottons.

The capital of Northern Ireland - part of the United Kingdom - Belfast, stretches along both sides of the River Lagan. It is a graceful city of Victorian and Edwardian buildings, which has become a cosmopolitan tourist destination, famed for its linen and its shipyards. Major industrial center in the 19th century, Belfast is also our gateway to the rich, Irish countryside of Counties Antrim and Down. Explore this exuberant city, discover The Murals, vividly painted on houses, marvel the bizarre landscape at the Giant's Causeway, visit the Museum Titanic Belfast or shop for superb Irish linens. Don't miss Belfast Castle at Cave Hill Country Park and Albert Memorial Clock Tower, a clock tower situated at Queen's Square in 1869 and one of the best known landmarks of Belfast.

City of literature, music, commerce, the capital of the Republic of Ireland, Dublin is a gracious and cosmopolitan city on the mouth of Liffey river. Surrounded by green space, including the Phoenix Park, Herbert Park and St Stephen's Green, it is an intimate place that is easy to explore. Stroll along the city, pay a visit to Dublin Castle, walk along Ha' Penny Bridge or survey the gray, stone façades of Trinity College, Ireland's oldest university. Grafton street is the place for shopping, either souvenirs or popular design brands.

Liverpool, England, an industrial town on the River Mersey about 290 km northwest of London. Liverpool's biggest claim to fame is its identity as home of the Beatles. We highly recommend a visit to the Liverpool Cathedral (Anglican), offering an outstanding view, to the Merseyside Maritime Museum, which reflects the city's considerable shipping history as one of the world's greatest seaports, the Beatles Story, which reveals the singers' early lives in Liverpool and their rise to stardom, and for art lovers, the Walker Gallery, which exhibits such periods as the 17th century masters (Rembrandt, Rubens and Ruysdael); 18th century British (Gainsborough, Reynolds and Wedgwood); Impressionism (Cezanne, Degas, Matisse, Monet and Rodin); Romanticism and early 19th century British (Constable and Turner); plus Medieval, Renaissance and High Victorian periods crafts, designs and sculptures.
