Newcastle & The Northeast For Christmas
5 days
5 Days
Newcastle is a vibrant city linked by seven iconic bridges across a bustling quayside with Gateshead. We spend time in the city and explore the coast north of Newcastle including a visit to Bamburgh. Our hotel is in the stylish suburb of Jesmond which is only a 10 minute walk from the famous Town Moor if you fancy blowing the cobwebs away during your stay. The Town Moor makes Newcastle truly special and is a space bigger than Hyde Park and Hampstead Heath combined! (Please note this tour will depart Christmas Eve, different to our other Christmas tours!)PLEASE NOTE: Price is per person and based on two people sharing a twin/double room. Single room supplements and upgrades are not included.
