England Travel Review: London, Windsor, York, Durham, Stonehenge, Hadrian's Wall, Soccer, Yorkshire Dales, 10-Day Trip

This is our third trip working with a Zicasso-recommended agency to plan our travel for an international vacation. We were again very pleased with the agency and enjoyed our trip immensely. Zicasso recommended two different agencies and we spoke to both. Mirella with this travel agency contacted us first. She was friendly and listened carefully to our very vague idea of what we wanted to do with the time we had for a trip to England in May. After the initial conversation, she quickly proposed a general itinerary, and we followed it with a phone call to ask questions and make refinements. After a couple of additional calls, we had a plan. We chose this agency over the other travel agent who contacted us because Mirella contacted us first, responded fastest to our questions, and gave us a proposed itinerary very quickly. 
Neither my husband nor I had been to England before, and trying to narrow down what to see in England in 10 days was absolutely overwhelming. The one request that we did have was to attend a Premier League soccer match involving Newcastle United. Newcastle was playing two matches during our planned time in England, so Mirella was tasked with finding tickets for us to one of those matches, and then building the entire rest of the stay around that date. The match she found tickets for was in Leeds, and in light of the limited time, and my husband's interest in history, she proposed an itinerary that included visiting Hadrian's Wall, and spending half of the trip in the northern England in Durham and York. The remaining 5 days she proposed we spend sightseeing in London and visiting museums with private guides and taking a day trip with a guide to Stonehenge and Windsor. We finalized the plan, and it ended up being a perfect initial foray into England!
