Day excursions

We travel into London to meet our top notch Blue Badge Guide for a day out covering all things postal. The very British story of sending a letter will unfold throughout the day. The day includes morning coffee, a short and level walking tour, fish & chip lunch, entrance to the Postal Museum and a ride on Mail Rail and more.

One of our most popular days out to the coast, Eastbourne has plenty to see and do whatever the weather, with a lovely promenade, fine shopping and lots of cafes and bars.

Charles Dickens visited Broadstairs regularly from 1837 until 1859 and immortalised the town as “Our English Watering Place”. In 1937, to commemorate the centenary of the author’s first visit, a production of David Copperfield, with people about the town in Victorian dress publicising the event, started this now annual event.

Royal Ascot is the World’s most prestigious flat racing event and we are delighted to offer you another chance to enjoy it. Experience over 300 years of history, pageantry and style on Ladies Day. From the Royal procession to the style of all those visiting, this really is the ultimate social occasion. The main race of the day is the Gold Cup which promises to be a fiercely contested crackerjack of a race. In 2026 we will once again do it in style, providing pre-race drinks and a picnic of sandwiches & nibbles. PLEASE NOTE THAT ROYAL ASCOT ENFORCES A STRICT DRESS CODE WITHIN THE QUEEN ANNE ENCLOSURE.

We take a 2 hour round river cruise from Runnymede through the ‘back garden’ of Windsor Castle, with views of the castle, Royal Farm and Queen Adelaide’s cottage. A Ploughman’s lunch will be served whilst on board and there is a cash only bar for you to purchase drinks. Upon returning to Runnymede, we board the coach for a visit to the great Savill Gardens which is part of the Windsor Great Park. Its 35 acres of beautifully designed gardens can be enjoyed by everyone and this is followed by a lovely cream tea.
