On-Screen Places You Recognise

THE RIVER

Exclusive Tamar Boat Trip (Tide Dependent)

An exclusive River Tamar boat trip is included when tides permit, giving a different vantage of riverside locations and adding a maritime chapter to the day.

THE JOURNEY

Scenic Rail, Road and Town Stops

The day travels mostly by train between locations and links small towns, a country house and parkland with short bus, taxi or ferry legs to stitch the route together.
