★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 248 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $13Our pick

Explore Durham’s cathedral, castle, bridges, folklore, and infamous characters on a lively 90-minute walking tour with Tom.

“Incredible tour guide, passionate, animated and engaging throughout., The tour was both full of details and humour. Although he hadn't packed a brolly (so we would know who he was), and had forgotten his reward stickers, all is forgiven as we had such a great time !! I would recommend 100% and would definitely book again as apparently he has another 3 hours of interesting information. For reference he looks like Kieth Lemon so you'll know who he is, and please give him our love - he was brilliantly entertaining!”
