Great tour of lovely city!

Published on Feb, 2025

Really great tour, loads of interesting information about this beautiful city. Brian is a very good storyteller and singer, and there were only 2 of us still did tour. Have had bookings cancelled before when only 2 people. Thoroughly recommend. Thanks

Brilliant Winchester Walking Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Absolutely loved our walking tour with Brian. And he should really have cancelled as only myself and my wife were booked in but were so grateful that Brian showed us around despite this. The city is very beautiful and Brian added greatly to this with his very engaging and informative narrative. We absolutely 100% recommend this walk with Brian…..

We went on this tour when the weather was absolutely atrocious ! Despite this it was a thoroughly enjoyable and informative experience due to Bryan’s depth of knowledge and his humorous enthusiasm for all things Winchester . Top notch and well worth going on .

Great value tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Guide was very knowledgeable on the history and dates and added some appropriate humour to our tour; alas it was only my wife and I on the tour, therefore with less participant questions it was over a little earlier than expected, but everything and more was covered in the experience.
