Ontdek het bruisende Newcastle
Newcastle is a vibrant city full of history and culture and is perfect to explore in one day. After arriving at the port, the bus is already waiting to take you to the center. Start your adventure with a walk along the banks of the Tyne, where you'll be treated to stunning views of the iconic bridges that dominate the horizon. A visit to Castle Keep is also highly recommended, as at the top of this castle you have a beautiful view of the entire city. If shopping is more your thing, Newcastle won't disappoint. From the well-known large chains to special boutiques, there is something for everyone!
