Fine dining is a highlight of every journey, and once you have settled into your seat, a delicious brunch with Bellini is served on the outward journey to Wales. In the care of your steward, sit back and relax in the convivial atmosphere. The journey is as exciting as the destination.

On arrival you will be greeted by our local guides who will accompany you on the short scenic coach journey (approximately 15minutes) to Caernarfon Castle. Your time is then your own to explore one of Wales’s most impressive Castles which has been awarded World Heritage status. This fortress – palace was built under the direction of Edward 1^st and was strategically important for controlling traffic along the Menai – Strait. Learn all about the history through the exhibitions and displays and enjoy exploring the many turrets and tunnels. The Royal Welsh Fusiliers museum is housed within two towers of the Castle. This tells the story of Wales’ oldest infantry regiment through a fascinating collection of exhibits, models and film. Learn about the life of an ordinary soldier and the unique traditions of this long serving regiment.

After an afternoon of exploring re-join the train for a fine dining dinner as we make our leisurely journey home.

Caernarfon Castle

Caernarfon Castle dates back to the late 11^th Century. The stone construction undertaken during the reign of Edward 1 took over 47 years to complete. In more recent times (1969)  the castle played host to the investiture of the current Prince of Wales.

Northern Belle operates within the constraints of the railway network. As such timings, routes and associated itineraries are therefore subject to change.
