Guided Tours for families.

We know that families with children don't necessarily want all the historical facts and figures and so we have designed a tour with kids in mind too.

This doesn't mean there won't be history, there will - but in a fun way that informs, delights and tantalises their vivid imaginations. Stories abound of Viking invaders, mad monks, sinking bells and pirates. Quizzes and fun challenges are set!

This tour normally lasts around 90 minutes. Other activities can be also be arranged for your children such as pot-making or jewellery making with beads in the local craft centre - and much more.


Guided Tours for Groups - large or small.

We much enjoy giving tours to large or small groups. Questions abound and inter-activity is the key to making your guided tour both fun and informative.

This tour normally lasts between 1-1/2 - 2 hours and is completely flexible to your requirements and interests. You can request the type of tour you would like to have and the any specific place you would like to visit.
