Geneva Historical Society Sponsors Trip to Downtown Abbey: The Exhibition

Geneva, N.Y.: Join the Geneva Historical Society and First Choice Travel for a two-day bus trip to New York City for Downton Abbey: The Exhibition August 25-26, 2018.  Based on the beloved television show, Downton Abbey: The Exhibition transports visitors to post-Edwardian England, where the characters and the iconic house come to life.
 
Visitors will be transported on an incredible journey through the grand home of Downton Abbey as the exhibition peers into the world of the Crawleys and those that served them below stairs. From Mrs. Patmore’s hectic kitchen and the gossip-fueled servants’ quarters, to the family’s glamorous dining room and Lady Mary’s bedroom, fans will get the chance to walk through some of the series’ most recognizable and beloved sets. Visitors will even come up-close to over 50 of the show’s official costumes.
 
Following the visit to the exhibition, the group will continue to celebrate Downton Abbey at a special afternoon Tea Master Class at T2 Teas. Here expert tea instructors will share their knowledge of tea history to fuel and inspire a sense of curiosity and creativity.
 
The cost is $289 per person, double occupancy, $279 triple occupancy and $260 quadruple occupancy. Rooms have two queen beds. A deposit of $100 is due by May 31. Balance based on occupancy is due by July 2, 2018. Make checks payable to: First Choice Educational Tours.
