Exclusive to JG Travel Group, this enchanting break begins with carols on the platform before boarding the East Lancashire Railway for a memorable ride, joined by Santa himself! Sit back, relax and enjoy festive treats and yuletide drinks as you soak in the nostalgic charm. We also visit Manchester’s vibrant Christmas Market, where twinkling lights, tempting stalls and seasonal delights create the perfect setting for some last-minute shopping and holiday cheer.

Please note: in the unlikely event of any mechanical issues on the day, the East Lancashire Railway reserves the right to substitute the locomotive.


Itinerary

From a morning pickup in your local area, we travel by coach to Manchester to explore the famous Christmas Market. Browse the many stalls, enjoy live music and revel in the festive makeover that attracts thousands of visitors year after year. There is time to have dinner (not included) before we rejoin the coach and continue to our hotel for our overnight stay.

After breakfast, we check out of the hotel and travel to the East Lancashire Railway train station to board the 92 Squadron Steam Train for our festive adventure. Christmas carol singers greet us on the platform to make a truly memorable experience. Then it’s time to take a seat aboard the much-cherished locomotive and tuck into mince pies along with mulled wine or Baileys. Don’t miss Santa! He’s on board too, with a gift for everyone. Afterwards, we rejoin the coach for our journey home.


Accommodation

We’ll stay at a well-appointed hotel (JG3 or JG4 rating). All rooms are en suite and other facilities include a bar and restaurant.

Your hotel will be confirmed approximately 3 weeks before departure, therefore we cannot guarantee that the hotel will have a lift and/or ground floor rooms and may be unsuitable for those with limited mobility.

Hotel Rating

Hotels with a JG3 rating tend to be a more formal style of hotel, often part of a hotel chain, or are very-welcoming family-owned properties. Generally, they offer a greater range of facilities and services, and bedrooms tend to be a little more spacious with additional features. Public areas are larger and include lounge seating, bar and restaurant with good quality food served either buffet style or waiter service.

Accommodation in our JG4 category is of an even higher standard, typically offering a wide range of facilities and services. Bedrooms are designed to make your stay the most comfortable possible and the staff provide a service that reflects the detail and quality. You can also expect higher standards of food and beverages.
