Both are technically correct, but 1 is the better choice.
If you used 2, you'd say: In 1999, I travelled to England for the first time.

The first statement is correct.
Or you can say:
I travelled for the first time in England in 1999.

The proper way to phrase this is; "I traveled to England in 1999 for the first time."

Strictly speaking there is no rule that would prevent you from using either. But No. 1 is better English.

One is correct, except that travelled should be traveled, if you're American.
