Torquay Tribute Weekend With 6 Nations Rugby Wales V Ireland

Itinerary

Day 1

Join your comfortable coach this morning at your convenient local pick-up point and head south west towards the glamourous English Riviera! On arrival in your palm tree lined resort of Torquay there will be plenty of time to settle in and perhaps have a seaside stroll before dinner. Enjoy a drink in the bar to meet friends and fellow travellers, and make sure you have worked up an appetite for your evening meal, followed by fantastic live Tribute entertainment that your central hotel is so famous for.

Days 2-3

Enjoy delicious breakfasts each morning, and then take time to explore your lovely seaside resort, whether it's a stroll along the palm lined promenade, some traditional fish & chips if you have room, or track down the mysterious connections with the enigmatic Agatha Christie! After dinner, there will once again be wonderful evening entertainment to enjoy.

Make sure you take advantage of our INCLUDED excursion to Exeter - or maybe you'd prefer to enjoy the atmosphere in the hotel as the 2025 Guinness Six Nations plays out on the big screens in the hotel's Sports Bar? The choice is yours...

Day 4

Having experienced the very best of Devon scenery, food, hospitality and entertainment, it is time to say farewell to the English Riviera today.
