Torbay Highlights
5 Day Coach Holidays - 7% Discount

Tour Highlights
River Dart Cruise, Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Railway, Paignton, Dartmouth, Buckfast Abbey
Torbay

Justifiably known as the 'English Riviera', beautiful Torbay is one of our favourite holiday areas. Torquay is the premier resort, with exotic gardens, palm trees, and terraces of hotels above the harbour and marina. From here, all the attractions of the Torbay area are easily reached, and on this special tour we include two of the most popular highlights - a train ride on a preserved steam railway and a cruise on the River Dart - whilst also seeing the best of the coast and countryside. On this Grand UK coach holiday.

Your Excursions

FULL DAY

This morning we head for nearby Paignton, where we board our train on the former Great Western branch line, which takes us along the coast past Goodrington Sands and alongside the River Dart Estuary to Kingswear. Here we take the passenger ferry across the river to the seafaring port of Dartmouth, with its imposing Royal Naval College, to board our included river cruise. Sit back and enjoy the wonderful scenery - wooded slopes, secret creeks and enviable houses dotted along the banks of the River Dart.

HALF DAY
This morning we head towards Dartmoor National Park and skirting the edge we come to Buckfast Abbey, a modern monastic complex where monks welcome visitors and sell homemade products.
