INCLUDED EXCURSIONS
St Ives (all tours)
St Ives is a dazzling jewel in Cornwall's crown - a picturesque fishing harbour and seaside town, a haven for artists, holidaymakers and anyone who appreciates just how breathtaking England's coast can be. Boasting gorgeous sandy beaches, delightful fishermen's cottages, cobbled streets and an array of wonderfully enticing boutique and independent shops, visitors are sure to enjoy exploring this pretty Cornish port. Once a busy pilchard harbour, St Ives later became the centre of Cornwall's arts scene in the 1920s and '30s, when luminary figures such as Barbara Hepworth arrived in search of artistic freedom. St Ives still retains its artistic connections with numerous galleries including the renowned Tate St Ives (entrance from approx. £14 pp in 2026).
Truro & Falmouth (all tours)
Enjoy a tour out to the city of Truro and the south coast resort of Falmouth. Few seaside towns in Cornwall boast such an arresting location as Falmouth, overlooking the broad Fal River as it empties into the English Channel. Surrounded by green hills and blue sea, Falmouth is an appealing jumble of lanes, old pubs, slate roofs and trendy cafes. Based around its charming and thriving harbour, Falmouth is the gateway to the beautiful Fal River which runs through Cornwall's National Landscape. Elegant Truro is Cornwall's only city - a great little city with an impressive Gothic Cathedral which was only completed in 1910, making it the first cathedral built in England since St Paul's. Inside, the vast nave contains some fine Victorian stained glass.
Isles of Scilly for the Day (August only)
After an early breakfast, head to Penzance to board the morning ferry for the crossing (2h45m) to the largest island, St Mary's, for a unique perspective of some of Cornwall's most iconic coastline. There are comfy, reclining seats as well as an on-board café. Only 28 miles west off the mainland, the Isles of Scilly feel like a different world - azure seas, white sand beaches, sub-tropical gardens and one of the warmest climates in the UK. Encompassing an area of less than 2.5 square miles St Mary's has an intimate atmosphere that exudes small island life. For those feeling especially spritely a walk around the island might be in order. Explore Hugh Town or take a local bus (fare not included) to enjoy the wonderful sights of the island. Return to the mainland in the afternoon with a later dinner this evening
Return Day - It's farewell to Cornwall as you head for home today. Travel back to interchange with suitable refreshment stops en-route to arrive back at your home towns early evening. Back to top
