"London-A Tourists Guide"When the great wit Dr Johnson said that if a man was tired of London, he was tired of life, he summed up the capital of England with his usual eloquence and more than 200 years later his wise words are as relevant as ever. This explains why so many visitors travel to London each year and with so much to see and do, they are never disappointed. From Roman ruins, through medieval streets, right up to the more recent arrivals like the London Eye, this city is alive with history wherever you go. Despite plague, fire and the Blitz, London survives to tell a fascinating tale that becomes ever more interesting with the passage of time. Now you can see the delightful sights of London on this ultimate city tour DVD. From royal palaces and green parks to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, enjoy a taste of London life, and just like Oliver Twist, Charles Dickens' eponymous hero who came here in search of his destiny, you'll definitely be asking for more.

"Dublin-A Tourists Guide"In many of the world's great cities travelling between the various attractions can be time consuming and expensive but a visit to Ireland's fascinating capital Dublin will certainly encourage you to travel on foot. Gracing both banks of the River Liffey, even crossing the beautiful bridges is a delightful experience and with classically proportioned Georgian architecture surrounding peaceful elegant greens, it would seem that this is one city that has had a painless evolution. But look a little more closely and Dublin has a very different story to tell. The fight for independence, whether from marauding Vikings or their British neighbours, has dominated Dublin's history and the battle scars can still be found if you know where to look. From the General Post Office on O'Connell Street, that was at the heart of the Easter Rising of 1916, to Dublin Castle, once a symbol of occupation, there are many places of interest that highlight Dublin's tempestuous past. Coupled with this history is a deserved reputation for being one of the most lively and hospitable cities in the world; Dublin the jewel of the Emerald Isle.
