This is why you NEED to visit Newcastle Upon Tyne | England's MOST Underrated City
Рет қаралды 95,160
Күн бұрынWelcome to my vlog of Newcastle upon Tyne, I'm proud to be bringing you to my home! Join me as I explore some of the most iconic landmarks and hidden gems that this city has to offer.
We'll start by strolling along the iconic Quayside, with its famous bridges and scenic riverside views. Then, we'll walk through the charming streets of the city center, taking in the stunning Georgian and Victorian architecture, including the famous Grey Street and Grainger Town. As a season ticket holder of Newcastle United, I'll also give you a sneak peak of St James' Park on a match day, and a glimpse of what all us Geordies are passionate about. To finish off on our first day exploring, we'll also visit a few of the free museums such as the Discovery Museum, The Hancock Museum and the Laing Art Gallery.
Day 2 brings a lovely little surprise of snowfall, and we begin at Grey's Monument, this time working our way through Grainger Town, and passing the bustling Grainger Market, where you can find a wide array of local products and delicious food. A quick stop off at The Bigg Market, then we head towards the grand Central Station, then into a hidden gem, the Lit and Phil.
I'll then take you into St Nicholas' Cathedral, which I had never been in before, and then along to Newcastle's Castle Keep, which gave Newcastle its name.
As promised, finishing off with a lovely surprise, we'll be heading down into the dark with Victoria Tunnel Tours. I found exploring the Victoria Tunnel fascinating, and really enjoyed the stories and history alongside it.
It took a lot of planning, researching, and editing to finally get this video out, so I really hope you enjoyed it and it wasn't too boring. If you all enjoy this video, I may very well make a part 2, picking up on some stuff I missed out, but also including some other things to see and do which are slightly outside of the city.
You can book the VICTORIA TUNNEL TOUR here:

The WOW! Moment for me was emerging up from Monument metro station for the first time and taking in the whole of Grey Street 😍 Two weeks ago I visited again and it didn't disappoint, Newcastle is a hidden gem plus Geordies are the most friendly and welcoming people (it's not a myth!) I'm originally from the South but the whole of the North East has captured my heart, so much so I'm now planning on relocating next year too! 🇬🇧

Last year I managed to lose my passport in Gdansk, so I decided to do a little cheapskate local UK tour with Flixbus and National Express while I waited to receive a new one because I haven't seen that much of it despite living in Wales for ages and I always thought of the UK as somewhere you live in rather than a holiday destination. I did Bristol - Cornwall - Bath - Manchester - Liverpool - Lake District - Glasgow - Highlands - Edinburgh - Newcastle - Durham - York - Cambridge - Oxford and I have to say that Newcastle was one of my favourite places. A very charming city with a very interesting history; lovely people; and nightlife was out of this world. 10/10

My Grandad was head of ARP during the war and leading up to the war starting he was instrumental in getting the Victoria tunnel opened. For his work he was given the MBE which was presented to him at St James Park by the King. He also escorted the King and Queen across the newly opened Tyne Bridge so technically he was the first person to cross the bridge. I have a photo of him on horse back leading the royal carriage across the bridge.

Great video! Thanks Ben. I'm an Australian who got married at St Mary's/Station Hotel and some of our wedding supplies accidentally got delivered to the Lit & Phil. We lived nearby and the address got mixed up. The phone call to them still sticks in my mind. Imagine "Hello, Literary and Philosophical Society" said in the slowest posh drawl imaginable ha ha. Currently reading a book about the amazing Armstrong who of course also was a Lit & Phil regular. Ever since I visited Cragside I have found him inspiring. I don't know that most Geordies appreciate what a visionary he was. Whenever I see videos like yours about Newcastle it literally brings tears to my eyes. I really miss it. It's time to start planning another trip back with my wife and children. A long haul from Australia, but worth it.

I like your channel (not bias that I’m also a Geordie and also a VT tour guide 🤣) I travel quite a lot too - I mainly do point to point travel, so fly to a city, then spend a couple of weeks getting trains and buses around and then fly back from that place. Europe is brilliant for that as public transport is so much cheaper on the continent and also straight forward. I’ll bookmark your videos for Madrid and Gdańsk as they’re on my list of places to do! I just wish Newcastle airport was a bit….better with its destinations you can go 😂. I’m always going up to Edinburgh or to Manchester to fly to the good ones!

The Ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam can be done as a 'Mini Cruise', but is it worth the long trip?
