An iconic tourist destination since the 18th century, Blackpool evokes strong nostalgia for many of us. Originally, Blackpool was a popular location for holidaymakers looking to improve their health by bathing in the sea. Since then, the popular seaside resort has rapidly developed and has so much more to offer to tourists enjoying coach holidays to Blackpool.
Our coach trips to Blackpool aim to show visitors the bright lights, sandy shores, and vibrant atmosphere of the seaside town. So, whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, are seeking thrills at the fair, or are keen to immerse yourself in live performance, our coach trips to Blackpool have something for everyone.
It is fair to say that few resorts in the world can rival the popularity of Blackpool, otherwise known as Britain’s Capital of Fun! With the world famous Blackpool Tower and circus, three Victorian piers, miles of golden sands, the spectacular Pleasure Beach, horse drawn carriages, a Sea Life Centre, Madam Tussaud’s Waxworks, a Zoo, a state of the art indoor waterpark, and an Art Gallery, Blackpool has it all.
But don’t get ahead of yourself: you’ll want to save some energy for the evening when you can enjoy endless vibrant shows, lively bars, and atmospheric pubs, on one of our theatre coach trips. Blackpool truly lights up at night. In fact, Blackpool has a broad history as a town of showbiz, from Sinatra to the Beatles. It is even home to Strictly Come Dancing and is considered the heart of the World Matchplay Darts Championship.
For a complete contrast to the sheer energy of Blackpool, the excursions included in our itineraries take us to some of the most serene scenery in Britain, including the Ribble Valley and the Lake District.
After a day of exploring, make yourself comfortable in the Queens Hotel Blackpool, one of Alfa Holidays’ many UK Hotels.
