Your journey begins as you are welcomed aboard the Northern Belle by your
steward, who escorts you to your seat. Settle in, relax and enjoy a bellini brunch as the train travels to Wales along the picturesque border line.
Marvel at the river gorges, mountains, forested hill sides and rolling farm land as we wend our way in and out of the English and Wales border marches.
“Croesco i cymru” – a warm Welsh welcome awaits when the train arrives into Cardiff. Enjoy a day at leisure exploring all the sights and attractions of this vibrant portal city. Step back in time at Cardiff Castle and uncover over 2000 years of history, take a boat trip around the bay or simply soak up the soul of the city in one of its many cafés, bars or museums. This is a wonderful and welcoming place in which to spend the afternoon.
Back aboard the train enjoy a sparkling glass of champagne as you sink back into your seat. Enjoy the ever changing views from your window as the train wend its way home. A delicious five course dinner is served with specially selected wine to round off this day of discovery.
