Itinerary

DAY 1: Depart from your home area in the morning and travel to The Beaufort Park Hotel. Tea and biscuits served on arrival. 4 nights stay dinner, bed and breakfast.

DAY 2: A drive through the pleasant Cheshire countryside brings us to Chester for the day. The historic city offers lots to see and do.Explore the unique 'Rows' of two-tiered shops and maybe do some Christmas shopping, take a stroll around the city walls, wander down to the River Dee and enjoy lunch in a riverside pub, or just relax and watch the world go by.

DAY 3: Leaving after breakfast, we travel around the Wirral coast via Hoylake, with its famous golf courses, and through the tunnel into Liverpool. We spend the morning here and you have time to explore this fascinating city. Visit the Albert Dock complex with its many attractions, including the Beatles Story, see the magnificent cathedrals, or just wander around the city. Here we also include a boat trip on the River Mersey. This afternoon we travel through the Mersey Tunnel to Port Sunlight, where we visit Sunlight Vision. Enjoy a guided tour of Port Sunlight Village, built by William Hesketh Lever for his factory workers and named after his famous Sunlight soap. Discover how the village was planned with the happiness of his workers uppermost and visit the gift shop. This is a superb example of how life used to be.

DAY 4: Today's excursion takes us through some lovely Welsh scenery, including the spectacular Horseshoe Pass, to the Dee Valley where we join the Rheilfford Llangollen Railway for a journey on a nostalgic train. We also take a ride on the 'Stream in the Sky'-the Llangollen Canal-gliding gently over the country's biggest navigable viaduct.
