Day Trips

The capital of South West England, the city of Bristol offers stunning day trips to other iconic cities as well as the beautiful British countryside, and is the ideal base to explore the region further. From the striking city of Bath to the picturesque hills of the Cotswolds, the dramatic cliffs of Cheddar Gorge and the wild landscape of the Brecon Beacons, day trips starting from Bristol offer an escape for everyone.

While the destinations are proposed as day trips, you can also make individual trips and stay longer at each, or turn them into a South West tour. Most suggested Bristol day trips are to the heart of the British countryside and are not easily accessible by public transport. Travelling by car is sometimes the easiest option.
