This lovely tour features a nine mile ride on the Bure Valley Railway, Norfolk's longest narrow gauge railway, through pretty countryside scenery from Aylsham to Wroxham - the 'Capital of the Broads'. There's free time in Wroxham before the afternoon cruise and you may wish to hunt out one of the local fish and chip shops or small cafés for a spot of lunch. You'll find shopping at Roys, which claims to be 'the largest village store in the world'. Finish the day on board a double-deck Mississippi Paddle Boat Steamer with an afternoon cruise on the lovely Norfolk Broads. Sail out of the pretty village of Horning, passing timeless thatched houses, ancient windmills and Norfolk reed beds, listening to interesting commentary from the skipper as you sail. There's a fully stocked bar with tea/coffee/snacks on board (cash only).
