Today’s adventure takes you to Historic Oxford, the city of dreaming spires and the home of the world famous University.
Your journey begins as your steward welcomes you aboard the Northern Belle to your comfortable armchair seat. Elegant tables laid with starched tablecloths, uniquely branded silverware and highly polished glasses complement the luxurious carriages.
Fine dining is a highlight of every journey and, once you have settled in, a delicious brunch with a Bellini is served as you travel towards Oxfordshire. In the care of your steward, sit back and relax in the convivial atmosphere, enjoying the views from your window. On the Northern Belle, the journey is as exciting as the destination.
On arrival at Oxford the day is yours to explore the city at leisure.
There are many museums in Oxford, including some of the best in the UK such as Ashmolean Museum which was opened in 1683.
Oxford castle is one of the oldest buildings in the UK having been in existence for over 1,000 years. Visitors can go on guided tours through the Oxford castle where they will get to hear its stories and the fascinating inhabitants of the castle.
The Oxford Covered Market was built in 1774 and is home to over 55 shops. You can also go to the University of Oxford Shop for your own Oxford souvenir items or visit Alice’s Shop for “Alice in Wonderland” souvenirs as well.
After a wonderful day rejoin the coach for the short journey back to the station, where we welcome you back on board the Northern Belle with a refreshing glass of champagne.
Later, you are served a sumptuous five-course dinner accompanied by half a bottle of wine as we wend our way home.
