Day trip to the Oberhausen Christmas market

About this trip

Oberhausen's Christmas market sits right next to CentrO, a large covered shopping centre. That means you can soak up the festive atmosphere of the market and spend the afternoon shopping, and if the weather turns, you simply head indoors.

The coach takes your group to Oberhausen in the morning. Everyone has the whole day to explore the market and the shops, and we set off back in the late afternoon.

A popular day out for clubs and societies, company outings and groups of friends.
