TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Newcastle: Newcastle city centre is compact, but the climb back up from the Quayside can catch you out. It’s often easier to walk downhill towards the river and use the Quaylink bus when heading back to make life a little easier. If you have a few extra hours, the Metro also makes Tynemouth surprisingly easy to reach too, giving you a seaside stop without needing a car."
