Continental Christmas Markets

Three nights dinner, bed & breakfast at the Mercure Roeselare

Day 1 - Once we have collected all passengers from their agreed pick up points we will make our way to the ferry port of Dover for the crossing to Calais. The crossing takes roughly 45 minutes where you are free to explore the boat. You will find shops, restaurant & cafes on board. We will make our way to the Mercure Roeselare Hotel in time for the evening meal.

Day 2 – This morning after breakfast we head for Brugge. As the city is transformed into a festive fairytale you will be able to experience one of Europe’s most charismatic Christmas markets. Stalls line the cobbled streets with gifts, gingerbread, waffles and the aroma of mulled wine. This afternoon we make our way to Ghent. Between the pine trees you will find more than 150 wooden huts selling a host of gifts, crafts, drinks and snacks. Due to market being nestled between the trees the Christmassy scent will certainly bring the festive experience to life. In Ghent you will also find fairground rides such as a traditional Ferris wheel and even a flying sleigh, both would give an excellent aerial view of Ghent in all its seasonal glory. We will return to the hotel in time for the evening meal.

Day 3 – Today we make our way to the heart of Lille for the Christmas market. Set in the Place du General de Gaulle, you will find all the traditional stalls of a European Christmas market, pony rides, Ferris wheel & even a large Christmas tree to spread the seasonal cheer. Around the Place du General de Gaulle you will find restaurants and cafes for you to grab a spot of lunch and experience the local cuisine. We will return to the hotel in time for the evening meal.

Day 4 – After an early breakfast we must make our way back to the ferry port of Calais for our 45-minute crossing back to Dover. We will return you to your original boarding points with suitable comfort stops en-route.
