Review of Chester’s 90-minute guided walk, covering Roman ruins, the Rows, cathedral, city walls, and Eastgate Clock in a small group.

“It was one of the best tours we ever had in UK. Although living in this country for few years, we never knew that Chester had this much history in its background. We forgot the cold weather and thoroughly enjoyed the walk through the city centre along with our tour guide, Caroline. She was extremely good and had a thorough knowledge of history, which made our trip enjoyable and worthwhile. I strongly recommend her to anyone who plans to visit Chester.”
