Hola Sugarcups,
Hi fellow wanderlusters and train lovers! If you’re feeling that “time to get out of the city” feeling, we’ve got you covered. Stay seated for a wild train ride down the tracks as we reveal ten amazing destinations to visit by catching a train from London’s St. Pancras International. You know what to do, so let’s get to train hopping!
1. Cambridge: Punting and Acting Like Professors
Take a trip to Cambridge and see why punting on the river is practically a competitive sport. It’s Hogwarts without the spells, but with equal parts magic.
2. Brighton: Sun, Sea & the Sassy Seagulls
Well, Brighton is that cool and creative cousin who lives by the seaside. Beaches, piers, funky shops and a real-life royal palace – it is kaleidoscope of awesome.
3. Oxford: Harry Potter Vibes & Genius Everywhere
Oxford is a history book brought to life – with a sprinkling of wizards! Wander around the cloisters and fake you’re a clever spy.
