5 Days 28th October 2024

 

Blackpool is unique, there is no destination like it in the UK! It is home to the famous illuminations known as the greatest ‘light show in the world’. With over a million light bulbs making up a variety of fabulous displays, and with live cabaret entertainment each night in our hotel, and a privately charted tram for us to enjoy the illuminations this tour is sure to be a memorable experience! This year we are also including a day in the Lake district complete with a cruise on Windermere to enjoy those Autumn Colours.
