Day 1 Edinburgh
Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home, for your journey to the north of England, where you will join our coach for the onward journey to Edinburgh and the excellently-located Hilton Edinburgh Carlton (4T). We aim for you to arrive at the hotel between 4pm and 5pm. After time to unwind, we enjoy dinner.
Day 2 Christmas Eve - Edinburgh - Holyroodhouse
This morning we begin with an orientation tour of Edinburgh by coach to help you acquaint yourself with the sights and sounds of this striking city. There is sure to be something for everyone, including history, culture and shopping. We visit the official Scottish residence, the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Built as an Augustinian monastery in 1128, James IV created the palace and was the first in a long list of kings and queens to reside here. This afternoon, we return to our hotel where the remainder of the day is at leisure. Or maybe stay in the city to visit Edinburgh Castle, a dominant feature on the skyline, or head to Princes Street for some last minute Christmas shopping. Enjoy dinner this evening, followed by festive entertainment.
Day 3 Christmas Day - Edinburgh
Merry Christmas! After breakfast, you are free to relax within the surroundings of the hotel or you might like to head out for a breath of fresh air. Enjoy Christmas lunch, after which there will be a further opportunity to relax with Christmas cake before settling in time for the Queen’s Speech. A light dinner will be served this evening at our hotel.
Day 4 Boxing Day - Royal Yacht Britannia
We visit Royal Yacht Britannia this morning, one of Scotland's most popular visitor attractions. It was the floating residence of the Queen and the royal family for over 40 years, sailing over 1,000,000 miles around the world. Following our visit, there is free time in the Ocean Terminal shopping centre, before we return to the hotel, where there is time to relax before dinner this evening and live entertainment.
Day 5 Edinburgh
After breakfast we check out, bid farewell to Edinburgh, and at approximately 10am we embark on the return journey by coach to the north of England, where you will meet your Titan vehicle, for the journey home.
