Day Trips Department
Welcome to the Day Trips department where we aim to show you the best our nation has to offer in a day excursion. From North Yorkshire to the South coast, we have plenty of ideas to suit all different groups. Our entertainment lunches have proved immensely popular and the programme of events is ever expanding. We have travelled extensively up and down the country sourcing delicious lunch stops, quaint tea rooms and expert guides to ensure a Greatdays day trip is truly memorable.
Our Manchester Sightseeing product is designed to promote the city that we call home to individuals staying in the centre, we offer a range of sightseeing tours and ‘things to do’ within Manchester as well as day trips from Manchester by train.

I manage the Day Trips team, looking after all day trip requests.
About MarkFavourite holiday: A short stay at a luxury desert hideaway in Borrego Springs, California. I had a private cabana with pool, looking out over nothing but desert – and it was HOT!
Favourite Greatdays tour: I would love to cruise down the coast of Norway with the Hurtigruten cruise – the scenery looks fabulous
Hobbies and hidden talents: Enjoy meeting people, eating drinking, and walking in the beautiful Peak District. Oh, and I can rustle up a mean Shepherd’s Pie or Chilli Con Carne (unless all my dinner guests are just being polite…)
Fun fact: I enjoy reading bus & train timetables
