Dickens Victorian Village (Cambridge, OH)
Enjoy a festive day-trip to Cambridge, OH! Take a trip back in time and experience old world England as historic downtown Cambridge, Ohio is charmingly transformed into a Dickens Victorian Village. Through mannequin displays throughout the town, you feel as if you are in a Dickens novel! A guided tour of the Dickens scenes wearing real vintage clothing will be complemented by a chance to see how mannequins are made, at the welcome center. In addition, the Guernsey County courthouse comes alive nightly with thousands of pulsating lights synchronized to holiday music. This magnificent 1881 building jumps into the 21st Century as it is bathed in colored lights, 36 animated light displays, and 15,000 lights outlining the building. All of this fun and excitement while still enjoying the personal service and years of travel experience you come to expect with All About Destinations!
Trip Itinerary
​
Day 1 (Breakfast, Dinner)
​
AAD Breakfast 'n GO!
Morning motorcoach departure from Elkins, WV (7:00am) (additional pick-up locations are possible) to begin a wonderful one-day tour that offers an unexpected Christmas experience in Cambridge, OH. As we depart, enjoy a tasty breakfast sandwich and water/juice courtesy of our partners Great Harvest Bakery Company. Each November and December, a scene from Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol” or one resembling merry old England has been placed under each lamppost along the main street, Wheeling Avenue. Upon arrival in Cambridge, we tour the displays with a local guide. Then it’s on to the Cambridge Welcome Center to see how the mannequin heads are made; how the figures are dressed in Victorian costume and learn about Victorian times. Following our visit to the welcome center, we will visit explore Downtown Cambridge with lunch (on your own) and shopping time in the many unique shops. After lunch, the fun continues with a tour of the Cambridge Glass Museum. This tour includes an actual video of workers at Cambridge Glass in the 1940’s, a chance to practice using original etching plates, history of the company and beautiful sparkling Cambridge Glass which features 6,000 pieces of glassware. Cambridge Glass also features a great gift shop! Next, we visit behind the scenes at the Pantry Door and Deli bulk food store. Our group will package their own goodies on an assembly line, just like the area Mennonite ladies do. The Cambridge Country Club welcomes us to a wonderful group dinner and the we are off to the grand finale... the music and light show at the Guernsey County Courthouse.
Your return trip aboard the motorcoach takes in the beautiful scenery along the way, while you reminisce on the wonderful day of tour and travel to Cambridge, OH! Estimated time of return is 11:30pm.
