Day 1. Saturday We depart and travel to Stratford upon Avon. There will be free time to explore, before enjoying a 60-minute cruise on the beautiful River Avon. You will see all the riverside sights, while enjoying a tutored tasting of the craft gins produced by the award winning Shakespeare Distillery, finishing with a glass of Gin & Tonic to toast your captain and crew. We depart later this afternoon for the journey to West Bromwich and the Mercure Birmingham West. This evening enjoy a three-course evening meal.
Day 2. Sunday We depart after breakfast and travel home via Warwick Castle. Dating back to 914, Warwick Castle has stood as an impressive Medieval Fortress on the banks of the river Avon for the last 1100 years. Attacked in 1264, besieged in 1642 and damaged by fire in 1871, the castle has survived the changing fortunes of history and remains one of the most well-preserved Medieval castles in the UK. A visit to the castle also takes you through the beauty of the landscaped Capability Brown gardens. We depart later this afternoon to make our journey home.
Excursion days are subject to change and will be confirmed with your final travel documents.
