Tour Overview
Enjoy the glorious Yorkshire coastline and scenery of the North York Moors, as well as visiting the historic city of York.
Itinerary
Day 1
Local departure by coach or Door-to-Door service, then travel to Scarborough for a four-night stay.
Day 2 North Yorkshire Moors Railway
Location: North Yorkshire Moors Railway
Today we enjoy one of the world's greatest heritage railway experiences! The line starts at Pickering with a must-see 1930s themed station, and boasts a magnificent roof structure which was re-instated to match the original 1847 design. The line then continues through the North York Moors National Park, offering spectacular views of the rolling hills and superb countryside.
Day 3 Free Time Or Whitby
Location: Free Time or Whitby
Relax in delightful Scarborough or visit another equally lovely seaside town, Whitby.
It is here that Count Dracula arrives in England in Bram Stoker's classic novel, and the town is awash with history.
Discover the narrow cobbled streets and bustling harbourside lanes, or climb the 199 steps to the ruins of the 7th century Whitby Abbey perched on the top of the cliff above the harbour.
Browse the many gift shops and don’t forget to bring back a piece of gleaming black Whitby jetstone – fossilised wood from the extinct monkey puzzle tree.
Day 4 York
Location: York
Today we take a trip to historic York. Discover the city’s Viking past at the Jorvik Viking Centre, explore 300 years of railway history at the National Railway Museum, or learn more about York’s sweet history at the Chocolate Story. Don’t miss the breathtaking York Minster – one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe and an incredible example of Gothic architecture.
Browse York’s many shops, from high street favourites to quirky and independent boutiques, along with excellent cafés, pubs and restaurants, and not forgetting the unusual Shambles, with its over-hanging timber-framed houses and traditional shop fronts.
Day 5
Return home.
