One of the best food and drink walking tours I have even taken. Don’t think about it—just go!

5.00My tour became upgraded to a private one since I was the only traveler on it today. Steph is an incredible guide, knows the city of Chester, and knows where the best food is as well. I had a personal four-hour tour seeing both the Roman and Anglo-Saxon aspects of the city, as well as tastings of South Indian, pub nibbles, hard cider, wine, Spanish food, as well as French Pastry—really too much food and drink to manage on one tour. The best part though was Steph herself, one of the friendliest and most personable tour guides I have ever known. I also met the owners and staff of many of the venues, who were also extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Come to Chester and take this tour. You’ll love wandering this historic city in Cheshire, and have a great time on this tour!
Outstanding, Fabulous Guide

5.00This was a lovely tour, brilliantly done by our guide Steph. She introduced us to a number of independent retailers that we wouldn’t have found in a month of Sunday’s. The food and drinks were all extremely good and Steph’s knowledge of the venues and retailers added to the overall experience. Added to this was the history she provided of Chester as we walked between venues. If you have a few hours to spare then I would thoroughly recommend this experience.
