About Southampton, England, UK

Southampton is one of Britain’s principal passenger ports, with maritime history, surviving medieval walls and a compact cultural quarter near the waterfront. The city also serves as a gateway to southern England, but destinations farther afield require substantial road time. Terminal location, traffic and embarkation procedures should guide any additional sightseeing.
