England Public transport in England is generally of a high standard but can be expensive. Buses or coaches are the cheapest but slowest way to get around. On longer journeys they are also the least scenic way to travel. England has an impressive rail network which includes a couple of beautiful lines through sparsely populated country. Fast intercity trains make air travel unnecessary unless you're in a real hurry. Car hire is worth considering if you want to explore some of the remoter towns and villages at your own pace. Taxis are plentiful in London but less conspicuous in regional centres. Traveling by foot is also an easy and enjoyable way in which to see the country. England has many hundreds of miles of Public Footpaths which allow free and unrestricted access into every county. British law protects the rights of pedestrians and these established footpaths. Many of these paths traverse private lands, and by statute, landowners may not impede the travel of a pedestrian or alter the paths course. Search the web for more information about theses footpaths.
