Laurel Dougherty has been in touch with the Coronaton Street Blog, she's a cruise specialist with Expedia Cruiseshipcenters in Orangeville, Ontario Canada.
There are a number of cabins reserved for a 12 Night British Isles Cruise on the Caribbean Princess departing from Southampton on June 7, 2012 which will dock in Liverpool on June 11, 2012. We will meet our guide (Corrie expert Mark Llewellin) who, on our way to our "Close to the Cobbles" tour, will give us an insight to the cast and studio as well as Manchester's history and its Canadian connection.
The details are as follows:
Itinerary: Southampton, St. Peter Port, Cobh, Dublin, Liverpool, Belfast, Glasgow, at sea, Invergordon, Edinburgh, at sea, Le Havre, Southampton.
Prices range from $2,365.00 to $3,615.00/person CAD - depending on the category (includes taxes, fees and tour)

and when do uk fans get a tour around the set ?? it really is about time something was sorted here in the uk !
ReplyDeleteThis isn't actually a tour round the set - it's a tour of locations. I'm sure Laurel would allow you to book on the cruise if you wanted to.
ReplyDeleteIt's not a case of UK fans not being allowed to do these things - I run Corrie walking tours open to anyone and I have run tours for UK companies in the past - but the take up in the UK is never as good as from overseas.
well i think its unfair that granada allow the canadian tours of the set we in the uk on coronation street soil arent allowed !
ReplyDeleteI am living New Zealand & am planning a holiday in the UK May/Jun/Jul 2012. It would be awesome to take a tour through Coro Street, any info on where I can do this. That British Isles Cruise sounds nice also. My partner & I are 30, will we be too young for this cruise?
