Day 1

From a morning pickup in your local area, we travel by coach to London for the spectacular Christmas at Kew event, where we are welcomed by an enchanting world festooned with seasonal cheer. With unique tree canopies drenched in Christmas colour, strolling along the world-famous gardens is a magical after-dark experience. Warm up with some spiced cider, mulled wine or hot chocolate, gather around the fire to toast your own marshmallows, indulge in some delicious food and don’t forget to have a browse through Kew’s beautiful range of products including homeware, stationery, perfect gifts and stocking fillers. Afterwards, the coach takes us to our hotel.

JG3

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.

Helpful Information

Please note: all of our London breaks include free time at leisure and we use a central coach drop-off point for our London tours, so these breaks may not be suitable for those with limited mobility. You will be required to make your own way to the theatre and/or attraction.

*This break is based on London Winter Wonderland attractions that are expected to go ahead in 2024; at the time of writing, they have not yet been confirmed.
