Excursion Info: YOUR JOURNEY
Christmas is coming … and our special Festive Lunch will sleigh you as the Northern Belle meanders majestically through the wintry countryside.
It’s a Christmas cracker of a trip, full of good cheer from the moment you step onto the red carpet laid across the station platform.
Once aboard, you’ll be welcomed by our attentive stewards with Champagne and canapés, including our delicious caviar blinis.
Then settle back into your comfortable armchair, pull one of our Christmas crackers and prepare for a sumptuous seven-course festive feast served with the finest wines.
We round the meal off with a freshly prepared seasonal dessert before bringing round our award-winning cheeseboard, accompanied by a glass of delightful Port.
Finally, relax with a cup of Fortnum & Mason tea or a special Northern Belle coffee, along with some delicate petits fours.
Don’t forget — our musicians will be playing festive tunes to get you in the Christmas spirit, adding an extra touch of magic to your journey.
It’s the ideal way to celebrate Christmas — whether you’re a couple, with a group of friends or family, or even travelling on your own (you’re bound to make new friends).
You’d be Christmas crackers to miss it!
