Tour Overview
Step back in time and experience the past first-hand with this nostalgic trip to the award-winning Black Country Living Museum and the National Memorial Arboretum. See what it was like to live in the industrialised landscape of the Black Country, explore the shops and houses of the time, see live demonstrations, have a handful of treats at the traditional sweet shop and even take part in an old-fashioned street game! Then we visit the National Memorial Arboretum where we hear the fascinating stories behind the memorials, with the pre-recorded commentary on the included Arboretum land train tour.
Itinerary
Day 1 : Black Country Living Museum
An award-winning open-air museum, situated in the heart of the Black Country. The museum is a large-scale outdoor reconstruction of a historical industrial town spanning a massive 26 acres. Visitors have the chance to learn and discover more about steam power, human ingenuity and industry.
The open-air museum consists of various old-fashioned shops and corner-stores recreated from the period which you can explore, and you’ll find a massive collection of over 80,000 replicas and artefacts inside. From the smallest nail to cars, trolley busses, canal boats and more!
Day 2 : National Memorial Arboretum
Britain’s largest all-year round place of remembrance, the National Memorial Arboretum site consists of 150-acres, on the edge of the National Forest in Staffordshire.
Visitors can discover nearly 400 memorials within the grounds, take guided tours, land train tours, and listen to inspiring talks. There is something for visitors of all ages to enjoy, from outdoor trails, a children’s play area and seasonal activities.
