Itinerary

Day 1

Join your comfortable coach at your convenient local pick up point this morning, and head to the 'Vegas of the North' - action packed Blackpool! On arrival enjoy time to settle in and perhaps enjoy a breath of sea air and stroll down the prom, or jump on a tram for a great overview of the whole seafront and your first glimpse of the amazing Illuminations! Make sure you have time for a drink or several in the bar (your amazing £1 bar gives you selected drinks between 6pm and 8pm every night!) to meet new friends before enjoying your first evening meal. Then sit back and enjoy the fabulous entertainment that Blackpool and your hotel is so famous for!

Days 2 to 4

Your centrally located hotel means you are right in the heart of the action in the seaside town that rarely sleeps! So make sure you explore and enjoy every moment with a trip to the beach (which must come with fish & chips, ice cream and a stick of rock), take a wander down your favourite pier, have some hair raising fun at the Pleasure Beach, or visit the must see Blackpool Tower with its own host of attractions.

Don't miss your INCLUDED excursion to the fabulous city of Liverpool with as much action as Blackpool and more famous faces! Enjoy free time to explore museums, galleries, attractions, great shopping, boats and the Beatles! Also enjoy a morning visit to bustling Skipton market with plenty of time to browse for bargains, and an evening tour of the greatest free light show on Earth as you see the famous Illuminations at their best!

Day 5

After a final hearty breakfast it is time to say farewell to Blackpool today. Board your comfortable coach for a relaxing journey home full of fun memories and with your newly made friends.

Skipton & Market

INCLUDED Visitor DestinationEnjoy a visit to the pretty market town of Skipton. As the gateway to the magnificent Yorkshire Dales, people travel the length and breadth of the country to visit this charming town with its famous 900 year old castle, romantic ruined priory and historic cobbled High Street. Skipton is endlessly rich both in history and outstanding natural beauty and a delight to explore. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday's see the town come to life with its popular market. If you like a bargain, love finding those treasures you don’t get on the high street, are partial to some delicious local produce or just love the atmosphere of a market in full swing,  Skipton Market is for you. Traders arrive in the town centre and set up stalls along each side of the wide High Street, bringing with them everything from cheeses to scarves, local meat to arts & crafts, shoes & boots to Yorkshire made blankets. Each day varies, and there is a rotating set of traders, meaning no day is quite the same!

Blackpool

INCLUDED Visitor Destination

The world famous seaside resort of buzzing Blackpool offers a fabulous range of activities* for your free time in the town. Blackpool Zoo, The Model Village and the Dungeons to name a few. In the evening, why not pop into Blackpool Tower and enjoy a waltz in the ballroom? Blackpool’s charm is its defiant embrace of the seaside holiday with its wide sweep of sandy beaches, three famous piers and adrenaline packed rides, it offers a mix of thrills, fun, laughs, and relaxation.
