As the transfer from the port to the city centre only takes 20 minutes, you’ll have plenty of time to explore everything Newcastle has to offer in the 5 hours that you’ll spend there. It’ll also give you the chance to savour the city’s grand architecture or even to cross the famous Tyne Bridge or Millennium Bridge, among the city’s most recognisable sights.
