Tuesday: Off we head to Lancashire, breaking our journey in Skipton for some leisure time. On arrival at the hotel refreshments await, then time to settle in before dinner. Tonight’s cruise themed entertainment takes us to Bavaria, so dust off your lederhosen, clink your stein and get ready for singing, swaying and dancing.

Christmas Eve: We head to Windermere, where time is free to soak up the festive atmosphere in the Lakes. Back at the hotel why not join in for a game of bingo before dinner? This evening’s live entertainment is a tribute to an American legend, can you guess who?

Christmas Day: Enjoy a relaxing morning, before carols with your “cruise director” then tuck into a traditional Christmas lunch served with all the trimmings. The afternoon brings a visit from Santa, and the King’s speech, along with a festive quiz or bingo. A light buffet dinner is followed by the ‘Best of British’ live cabaret entertainment.

Boxing Day: This morning we take a drive through the Ribble Valley to Settle. A fun-filled afternoon awaits as we head to the Panto – “He’s behind you!” Back at the hotel, there’s bingo or a quiz before dinner.
