Activity itinerary

Tynwald Hill
  • 25m
Travelling towards the centre of the island via the famous TT course, we will make our first stop at St. Johns to visit Tynwald Hill. Tynwald is believed to have been established by Norse Viking settlers over a thousand years ago making it the oldest continuous parliament in the world. The hill is now one of the Island’s most Iconic landmarks symbolising Isle of Man’s independence as a self-governing crown dependency. There is a wealth of history to explore in this area including the Royal Chapel, a Giant’s grave, Ballaharra Neolithic Stones and Bunscoill Ghaelgagh our Manx Language Primary School.
Peel
  • 25m
Heading towards the west, we’ll venture to Peel; also known as sunset city, with its stunning backdrop of the ancient Castle, fishing harbour and sandy bay. We can wander through the quaint streets with their tiny fishing cottages or take in the fresh sea air along the promenade with an ice cream or around the castle, keeping a look out for the Atlantic grey seals or our resident bottlenose dolphins, Moonlight and Starlight.
The Sound Cafe Isle of Man
  • 25m
Venturing to the Southern tip of the island, we will discover The Sound which overlooks one of the most dangerous sections of water stretching to the Calf of Man, now a nature reserve with abundant wildlife.
Cregneash
  • 25m
Overlooking the Calf of Man, Cregneash was one of the last strongholds of the Manx language and customs which characterised the traditional crofting way of life. Amongst the traditional thatched Manx cottages, that contain a living folk museum, there is a chance to see two of our favourite and somewhat rare Manx animals, a cat with no tail and the brown Loaghtan Sheep.
Castletown
  • 25m
Lastly we will visit Castletown, the Isle of Man’s ancient capital which is wrapped around what is said to be the best-preserved medieval castle in Europe. With its beautiful square, attractive harbour and steeped in history, this is a gem not to be missed
Fairy Bridge (Pass by)
Our tour will conclude by returning via Fairy Bridge, where traditionally people say hello to the "Mooinjer Veggey" or Little People! Tour timings allow for travel between points of interest.
