A Walk Through History

Experience romantic Chester and hear stories of the lives and loves of the people who have lived here over the centuries, in a way that only an experienced guide can tell.

Let Chester cast its spell on you; a glorious, ancient city with a rare elegance in its beautifully preserved old buildings.

From its beginnings as a city of Legions and the cross roads of the British Isles to what is now a lively city with energy in its air, yet also mature and relaxed.

The sense that most of England's history is encapsulated here in its broad, cobbled, picturesque streets and its profusion of Rows.

Take the stress out of the planning and book 'The Heart of Chester Walking Tour', taking in the centre of the city and ensuring that you don’t miss those headline sights, allowing time for photographic opportunities and creating your own memories.

Private tours can be accommodated.

    Lots of interesting facts about the long history of Chester. Really good to see the undercrofts - it’s amazing that there is still evidence of this architecture from such a long time ago. Good to walk along the Rows and understand how and why.
