Enjoy this quintessentially English riverside city on the banks of the Great Ouse. As the second smallest city in England it is compact enough to explore on foot with a wealth of sightseeing opportunities to enjoy. Saturday is Ely's weekly Craft, Food & Vintage Market. Grab a locally roasted coffee and start browsing one of the most diverse markets in Cambridgeshire. There’s a wonderful mix of quirky antiques, books, artisan produce and handmade crafts. Street food is in abundance with everything from authentic Mexican and Brazilian food to amazing cakes and freshly baked bread. It’s the perfect way to kick start your weekend!

Monastic buildings, a vibrant food scene, springtime riverside strolls, independent shops and of course the majestic Cathedral, fondly referred to as "The Ship of the Fens" and "one of the wonders of the Medieval World" are waiting to be explored. You may recognise the Cathedral as a filming location for The King's Speech and The Crown. Start planning your day with Visit Ely.

Includes free time in Ely, return travel and a reserved coach seat. The coach is due to arrive at 11:45 and will depart at 16:30, setting down and picking up near the Cathedral's west door so you'll be in a central location, ready to start exploring.
