Set sail and discover the vibrant city of Newcastle
Let the sea set you free and explore the character of Newcastle upon Tyne! This northern gem comes alive with energy and famous Geordie hospitality, offering endless opportunities for discovery. Wander along Grey Street to admire the stunning Georgian architecture, or stroll down to the iconic Quayside where the bridges arch majestically over the River Tyne.
Shop at Eldon Square or explore the historic Grainger Market, where artisan goods and local treats await. Find a cosy spot in a traditional British pub for a hearty meal, or relax with a drink as you take in the lively atmosphere of the city centre.
Dive into the region’s rich culture with a visit to the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, or take a step back in time at the ancient Castle Keep that gave the city its name.
Rediscover the joy of ferry travel—our Mini Cruise offers you two relaxing nights onboard and a full day to embrace the charm of Newcastle. It is the perfect getaway!
A DFDS Mini Cruise isn't just a crossing...
From the moment you step aboard, there's something to do. Duty Free offers to shop, a coffee to sip, a bar to find, a meal to enjoy, a movie to catch. Families can relax knowing under-threes eat free, while couples and friends can make a proper night of it. And when you wake up, Amsterdam's right there waiting.
