Excursion 1
Our day starts with a ride through the pleasant countryside to the Spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells. The town boasts elegant streets, Georgian buildings and the famous Pantiles, a colonnaded shopping area in the town centre. This afternoon, we enjoy a journey on the famous Bluebell Railway. One of the first preserved heritage lines in the country, resulting in one of the finest collections of vintage steam locomotives and carriages - many of which were preserved straight out of service from British Railways. The nostalgic journey takes us along an 11-mile scenic route from East Grinstead to Sheffield Park
Excursion 2
Our day takes us to Wakehurst Botanic Garden, part of the Kew Gardens family. Here you can explore the wild botanic garden, home to the Millennium Seed Bank and over 500 acres of the world's plants in the heart of Sussex. We enjoy a short afternoon visit to Lewes, the county town of East Sussex before returning to Brighton.
