Cheap pints, those blue floral plates, dodgy carpets and long walks to the loo – if the thought of all this, aka a quintessential Wetherspoons experience, fills you with joy, these new holidays are for you.

A UK travel firm has just launched the nation’s first Wetherspoons holiday, which will whisk you around the UK in a luxury vehicle seeing some beautiful sights and some beautiful Spoons.

Trips will start from £1300 per person, which is a little more expensive than you might expect for a vacation centred around the nation’s famously budget pub chain.

You can pick tours of the North or South, with the former ticking off major cities like Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool as well as the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, and Blackpool.

Along the way, as well as taking in the sights of each place, you’ll visit some of the UK’s finest Wetherspoons for a cheap pint and maybe even a Curry Club.

Pubs on the tours include The Sir Wiliam de Wessyngton in Sunderland, the cheapest Spoons’ in the north; The Winter Gardens in Harrogate, one of the country’s most beautiful Wetherspoons venues; and The Velvet Coaster in Blackpool, one of the UK’s largest pubs.

And here in Manchester, Wetherspoons tour guests will get to visit The Moon Under Water on Deansgate. I know – the glamour.

The new holidays come from travel company MyUKTour, which is renowned for its Bentley chauffeured tours around the UK and Europe.

A spokesperson from MyUkTour said: “All of us at MyUKTour are so excited to start offering this bespoke trip to one of Britain’s best known, and arguably finest, cultural institutions.

“Combining hearty pub grub and craft ales with historical monuments and stunning landscapes, this tour is sure to showcase the very best that Britain has to offer.”
