Tour Overview
Anchored off the south coast, the tiny, chalky gem that is the Isle of Wight boasts 25 miles of sweeping shoreline, spectacular rugged cliffs, traditional English villages, and a host of coastal eateries specialising in fresh-from-the-net seafood. On our Isle of Wight holidays (including ferry crossings), we introduce you to Queen Victoria’s seaside palace, Italianate Osborne House; the famous lighthouse at the Needles, which perches on the island’s most westerly tip; and, set in the heart of the island, dramatic Carisbrooke Castle.
