101 Short Breaks

Special events by coach

Mark and David's verdict

Travel is about great experiences, whether it's attending a thrilling sporting event or witnessing a unique celebration. But buying tickets and organising transport can be a nightmare. That's why you need a specialist company to do all the hard work for you, and lay on a comfortable coach to get you there. So you can sit back and enjoy the show.

Leger Holidays says

Booking a package and travelling by coach makes it easy to combine a fully-escorted short break with the chance to take in some excellent sporting and special events.

You can experience an adrenalin-pumping Formula One weekend break, or taste the excitement of the Prix de L’Arc de Triomphe at the Longchamp racecourse. Closer to home, you could be enjoying a special day out at Royal Ascot, or the Chelsea and Hampton Court Palace Flower Shows.

A fully escorted coach tour gives you the chance to combine a special event with a leisurely tour of the surrounding countryside. You can witness the climax of Europe’s most gruelling race – the Tour de France - along with a tour of cosmopolitan Paris. Or head to the historic Edinburgh Military Tattoo and combine it with a tour of the glorious Scottish scenery.

In July 2010, the city of Antwerp hosts the start of the Tall Ships Race, where around 80 ships will be berthed in the harbour and there will be various organised celebrations. Or in September 2010 you can enjoy the Munich Beer Festival, the Oktoberfest, in the superb setting of the Bavarian capital.

With a choice of 423 convenient local coach joining points across England and Wales, plus an option to upgrade to luxury Silver Service coach travel which gives the benefit of extra legroom and a spacious rear lounge, these fully escorted coach packages are great for a short break with a difference or make a great present for your family and friends.
