Looking for something to do in Cornwall with my son. We will be in Cornwall via the Regal Princess in July. I saw this excursion and it looked interesting but it's expensive. ($170US). Has anyone taken this excursion and found it to be worth it? Is there something must see in Corwall?
Board your coach for the drive to the stark moorland and secluded coves of The Lizard. You'll pass Culdrose Royal Naval Air Station and the Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station en route to Lizard Point Village. From here you'll set out on your approximately two-hour guided walk.
The breathtakingly scenic path meanders along dramatic cliff tops ablaze with wildflowers to Lizard Lighthouse. Built in 1752, the now-automated lighthouse protects one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world. Your walk continues along the coast before turning inland to Church Cove.
Upon return to the village, you'll have lunch at one of the local pubs.
After lunch, you'll have free time to explore Lizard Point Village before re-boarding your motorcoach for the return trip back to the ship. Don't miss the small workshops that specialize in turning serpentine rocks into highly polished figurines, statuettes, dishes and jewellery, which make excellent mementos.
Special Notes:
Your approximately two-hour walk follows cliff top coastal paths. The paths are uneven in places; walkers must negotiate some steep sections.
