Discover glorious Worcester and its host of nearby attractions on this superb holiday, enjoying wonderful journeys on heritage railways including the Warwickshire Railway.
On arrival in the medieval city of Worcester, your Tour Manager will be waiting for you at the Worcester Whitehouse Hotel. After settling in, you are free to begin exploring ahead of dinner in the hotel this evening.
Discover Worcester on a guided walking tour taking in the city's many attractions, including its timber framed Tudor buildings, and of course the magnificent cathedral.
Travel by coach to the spa town of Cheltenham and board the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway for an atmospheric steam-hauled* journey across the Vale of Evesham and through the pretty Cotswolds' countryside. We then transfer to Broadway, which is far more quaint than it's American counterpart. We enjoy some time here for lunch, and this afternoon, visit the quaint market town of Moreton-in-Marsh.
Enjoy plenty of time at leisure to enjoy this beautiful little town, that is filled with history, having been a settlement since the Iron Age. Perhaps take a look at 'Ye Old Stocks' in the centre of the town, or pay a visit to the lovely Victorian market hall, designed by Ernest George in 1887.
*Steam-hauled where possible
Your morning begins in Bridgnorth where you are at leisure. In your free time, you could take a trip on the Castle Hill Railway, the country's only inland funicular line.
Next, enjoy an excursion on the Severn Valley Railway*, which follows the path of the River Severn, through remote valleys and past the 200 metre Victoria Bridge. From Kidderminster, travel back to Worcester by coach.
*Steam-hauled where possible
After breakfast, your tour concludes and you are free to depart at your leisure or continue exploring the beautiful surrounding area.
On many of our UK & Ireland tours, you may check in at the first hotel on your itinerary anytime after 14:00; your Tour Manager will be available between 16:00 and 18:00. However, if you are arriving later, you can meet your Tour Manager before dinner from 19:00.
