Getting Around in Blackpool

BLACKPOOL EXPERIENCE - GETTING AROUND In this review I have summarised the main ways of getting to, and around in, Blackpool. Most of my direct experience has been by public transport as I have only recently passed my driving test and have not driven much in Blackpool. I have, however, seen my parents driving around and parking. CAR Blackpool is easily reached by car having it’s own direct link to the national motorway network at the M6 along the ...

Review of Getting Around in Blackpool

Having Lived here in Blackpool all my life which has so far been 17 years i have found it to be interesting to say the least. Theres just so much to do here in Blackpool that you can't really get bored, although i do some times. I just can't see how people who grow up in Villages aren't bored. Whats to Do: - The Cinema - Well we have the Odean Cinema which i guess you all probably know as it is nationwide. We used to have the ABC cinema but not ...
...is Fairly big, i don't usually find myself without a Car park. I advise that if you do go to the cinema in Blackpool then go on Mondays because its Only £3.50 each. To check whats on when you go click on www.odean.co.uk - North Pier - Usually is a the place where the old Comedians come to entertain.

Review of Getting Around in Blackpool

...mini buses to big double decked buses. Then there are trams you can get around on. They run from St Annes to Fleetwood and are more pricey than buses. You are looking to spend £1.00 each even for a single stop whereas on the bus you would spend less to travel further. Trams are frequent and come in all shapes and sizes. Trams make a loud noise when your on them and I find that I get travel sick very easily on them. In the winter when the illuminations ...

Review of Getting Around in Blackpool

Using the trams is a great way to get round Blackpool, we stayed in St Annes, a 5 minute drive the the tram terminus (right by Pontins) £1.50 for 12 hours parking (in London you would be lucky to pay that for 1 hour) and an average of £1.20 per trip on the trams!!! You can also get day passes on the trams but dont know how much they are as didnt get one!!! They also run late in to the night! Which is handy as we went back in the evening to view the ...
