Hovertravel’s Behind-the-Scenes Tour Gets a Festive Makeover

This December, Hovertravel is spreading holiday cheer with a festive twist on its beloved Behind-the-Scenes Tour! On Monday 22 December at 14:00, the ever-popular tour returns with a Festive Edition that promises mince pies, merry selfies and a sprinkle of seasonal magic.

Guests can enjoy a free mince pie in Solent Views, the viewing hub of the Hovercraft Centre of Excellence, offering stunning views over Ryde Hoverport and a fascinating glimpse into the history of hovercaft. Everyone on the exclusive 90-minute tour will also receive a gift-wrapped Hovertravel souvenir, and meet Henri the Hoverbear, dressed in their most festive finery and ready for selfies – because no holiday outing is complete without a bear-y good photo!

Loretta Lale, Head of Marketing at Hovertravel, said: “We are excited to welcome visitors for a behind-the-scenes adventure with some seasonal sparkle. From mince pies with a view to selfies with Henri, it is all about sharing a little hovercraft magic this Christmas!”

There is also a Festive Behind the Scenes Tour (including return flight from Southsea) option; for this, guests depart from Southsea at 13:30, and the return from Ryde is scheduled for 16:15.


Spaces for the Festive Behind-the-Scenes Tour are limited. Book your place and make your holiday hover-tastic at https://www.hovertravel.co.uk/experiences/festive-edition-behind-the-scenes-tour/
