This diverse tour brings together two Devons’ most iconic locations, historic Plymouth and Dartmoor National Park. Wether you are stay in Plymouth, your cruise liner docks in Plymouth, or you’ve hopped on the train from London, be totally immersed in this all encompassing day. First the Barbican, the historic core of Plymouth, stand on the commemorative steps where the Pilgrim fathers departed, study the 102 names of those who set sail on Mayflower, walk the narrow cobbled streets with Elizabethan houses and drinking establishments a plenty. Then to Plymouth Hoe where Sir Francis Drake was famously interrupted whilst playing bowls to be informed of the pending arrival of the Spanish Armada, be in awe of Smeaton’s tower, the grandfather of Lighthouses and sit in the very spot where the Beatles sat during the Magical Mystery Tour. Off to beautiful Dartmoor, rugged, windswept and magical. Dartmoor ponies, Majestic highland cows and Dartmoor sheep will hopefully say “hello” on our way to Princetown home of the famous, nay infamous Dartmoor prison with its dark history. Stone bridges litter the route, some over 2000 years old and learn about locations where Sir Arthur Connan Doyle and Agatha Christie drew inspiration for some of their most famous novels. To conclude we’ll visit Ashburton home to an Inn thats been serving ale for nearly 900 years, then back to Plymouth with time to catch breath on the return journey.
