10 Things to do in Isle of Man That You Shouldn't Miss
The Isle of Man is simply magical, an enchanted journey back in time that somehow still feels modern. The island is peppered with stone churches, castles, forts and intricately carved Celtic crosses, all in varying states of preservation. A ride on the steam engine Heritage Railway is a wonderful way to take in the splendid countryside. Don’t miss the Victorian-era Laxey Wheela or Curraghs Wildlife Park, a fun way to get up close and personal with some of the island’s most adorable natives.

We purchased a Go Ticket for £52 which gave us unlimited travel on the Buses, Steam Railway, Electric Tram, Groudle Glen Railway and the small Mines Train in Laxey. We found all the public transport workers and volunteers on the railway very helpful and went out of their way to help us. We managed to see the whole of the Island during our 11 day stay. We stayed in Douglas which made local transport a viable option.

Step back in time to experience Victorian railway comfort. Great day out. An hour’s ride from Douglas gets you to Port Erin after passing through some lovely countryside, stopping at quaint stations and getting enticing views of the sea Love the sound of the engine chugging along, the piercing whistle and the smell of coal smoke Well worth a visit. And bring a piicnic for the journey
