Itinerary
Day 1
G-Line's Door-to-Door home collection service will transfer you and your luggage to our tour coach this morning, before we begin our journey to Chester, calling en route in Manchester for its traditional Christmas Markets. Wander through hundreds of wooden chalets spread across multiple different locations throughout the city. Each area has its own distinct character and atmosphere, including Albert Square, St. Annes Square, and Exchange Street, where you can browse a wide variety of goods, food, drink, seasonal gifts, toys, and clothes! This afternoon, we will continue to our hotel for check-in, and you will then have some free time to relax and freshen up before dinner this evening.
Day 2
After breakfast at the hotel, you can enjoy a full day in Chester city centre for its Christmas Market. Situated outside the Town Hall near Chester Cathedral, the annual market offers more than 70 stalls selling gifts, arts and crafts goodies, fudge, local spirits, and stocking fillers all surrounding the beautiful Christmas tree in the heart of the city. In addition to the markets, Chester has plenty to offer visitors, you could enjoy a river cruise, walk on the historic city walls, or explore the famous 'Rows' of two-tier galleried shops.
Day 3
We bid farewell to our hotel after breakfast and begin our journey home, stopping en route for some lunch and shopping at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet. This large, pedestrianised, village-style site offers designer and high-street fashion brand discounts, the perfect oppportunity to do some Christmas shopping. Later on, we continue north back to our local area, where our Door-to-Door service will be waiting to transfer you and your luggage home.
