Wireless, international microphones.

So I am looking for a wireless mic solution that I can take abroad, I'm looking at shooting in the UK and in nicaragua, and I am trying to find a mic set that would work well in both. I think UHF would be out because i have no idea what frequency spectrums would work between the three locations (central PA is also where I will be shooting). I'm looking for two mics that I can mount the receiver directly on my DVX, since I will be doing interviews with walking tours, I want to keep the tour guide mic'd but also be able to move freely for shots and keep audio recording going.

Any help would be appreciated.

I've just found the sennheiser ew 100-ENG G2, which from what i've read is a good mic setup, but has anyone had experience taking it abroad?

In the UK there are a number of frequencies and bands...
VHS, a bit conjested and may show interfearence
UHF, better but the mic kit will cost more
2.4G, free band, digital should be OK

Which ever band you go for make sure the radio mic/ reciever has a good number of frequencies so you can chose an alternative if the frequency is busy. As for licences, I am not toatlly sure, if the range is 10's of metres, whoops sorry, yards (US) then I wondn't worry too much.
