Lille City Break

Lille in France is one of the country’s more under-sung destinations, yet it is also one of its more interesting ones, and over recent times it has had a huge facelift which has transformed it from what once was a decaying post-industrial city to the sparking busy and attractive metropolis it is today. It is also much easier to get to than Paris; London to Lille on the iDBUS takes just five hours and forty minutes, making it an ideal destination for a city break. The bus leaves London from the Victoria Coach Station and arrives in Lille at the Boulevard de Leeds right in the heart of the city.
