Christmastime in London has long set the scene for Charles Dickens’s treasured novels and many a blockbuster rom-com. This year, locations across the city are offering travelers memorable ways to experience Britain’s most beloved holiday traditions.
During the holidays, London has a wealth of bedecked Christmas markets like Covent Garden , Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park and Southbank Center Wintertime Market. On Dec. 4, the Belmond British Pukkman is taking guests on a round-trip train journey from London’s Victoria station to spend the day at the Bath Christmas Market. A three-course brunch is served onboard in the train’s restored antique carriages before guests disembark in one of Britain’s most scenic cities.
“Guests can shop locally made gifts and sample festive treats like mince pies and mulled wine in over 200 stalls and chalets,” said Gary Franklin, vice president for Belmond’s trains and cruises. The return trip includes a four-course dinner before arriving in Victoria Station.
