Itinerary

After breakfast, we head to the traditional Victorian seaside town of Southport. Known as England’s Classic Resort, it is home to the country’s second longest and oldest pier and has miles of golden sands plus beautiful parks and gardens, perfect for a leisurely stroll. In the afternoon, we return to Blackpool to enjoy the rest of the day at leisure.

We make our way to pretty Bowness-on-Windermere, a picturesque town nestled in the heart of the Lake District National Park. It is a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, offering breathtaking views of Windermere, England's largest natural lake. The town's charming streets are lined with quaint shops, cafés, and traditional pubs, making it the perfect base for exploring the surrounding landscape.

Join our optional excursion where we travel to the Victorian town of Fleetwood for an exciting trip to explore one of the largest markets in the north west, offering a wide range of products from delicious food to clothing, across 150 stalls. Later, we return to Blackpool for some free time to take in the highlights of the town.

In the evening, we enjoy an included drive along the promenade to see the famous Blackpool Illuminations. This dazzling spectacle is one of the biggest light shows in the world!
