North Yorkshire Moors Railway and Ryedale Folk Museum

We journey into the stunning North York Moors, stopping in picturesque Goathland, famous as Aidensfield from Heartbeat.

Boarding the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, we enjoy a nostalgic ride in restored carriages to Pickering before visiting the fascinating Ryedale Folk Museum and returning to Whitby via a scenic moorland route.

Day of Leisure or York

Spend a leisurely day in seaside Whitby—climb the 199 Steps to the abbey ruins, savour fish and chips at the Magpie Café, or browse the charming shops along Church Street.

Alternatively, join our optional excursion to York, where you can explore its ancient walls, independent boutiques, and the historic Shambles, all in the shadow of the magnificent York Minster.

Optional York excursion (£11pp)

Scarborough

Take a scenic trip along the North York coast to vibrant Scarborough, where a lively fishing community meets a classic seaside resort. With two beautiful beaches, historic castle ruins, and traditional amusements, it’s no wonder visitors have flocked here since the Victorian era.
