Itinerary

DAY 1: After completing our local pick-up route we head towards the south coast to catch our ferry to the Isle of Wight, with suitable lunch and refreshment stops en-route. On arrival at our hotel there is suitable time to freshen up before dinner.

DAY 2: Today we visit Newport. The historic town centres on two elegant squares with Georgian and Victoria architecture surrounding them, with the town’s quay a short distance away. After Newport, the coach departs for the second destination of the day, Cowes – the most northern town on the Isle of Wight. It has the unique feature of being split into two by the mouth of the River Medina.

DAY 3: Today we travel to Godshill for the morning with its delightful medieval church, charming thatched roofed cottages and a winding main street lined with traditional tearooms. Godshill is as picturesque as it is popular.

DAY 4: Free day at leisure in Shanklin.

DAY 5: Today we do an Island tour. Potter through the villages and discover the picture postcard side of the Island, each with their very own unique character and heritage.

DAY 6: Today we say a fond farewell to our hosts and make our way back to Kent with suitable lunch and refreshment stops en-route.
