Wills and Kate opt for Yorkshire rail honeymoon [April Fool 2011]

Speculation over where Prince William and Kate Middleton will jet off to for their honeymoon is finally over.

The Royal couple have booked a scenic steam train tour of Yorkshire and the Lake District with escorted tour specialist Travelsphere.

Nathan Philpot, group sales and marketing director, said: “In these austere times, it is great to see that Prince William and Kate Middleton have plumped for a holiday that is great value rather than exuberant luxury.

“It once again shows they have their fingers on the nation’s pulse and being a Travelsphere holiday, which is extremely sociable, will only enhance their connection with the wider UK population.”

The couple will travel through the North Yorkshire Moors and the Yorkshire Dales, explore York and Whitby and spend some time in the Lake District on this “nostalgic” holiday.

For those looking to travel in Royal footsteps, Travelsphere has departures available in July, August and September.
