What To Expect
My name is Helen. I love my city and I like to show it from a local viewpoint! My favourite places are unusual ones that are off the beaten track and are often missed by many visitors. I aim to show you these combined with the incredible history, culture and sights we have to offer
I keep my group sizes small which gives us plenty of time to talk! Sometimes I can even vary the route according to your interests or pick up a drink along the way..
I set up my company because during my travels I have been invited to homes all over the world so now I want to welcome visitors from everywhere to my own home town.
My other tours -"Historic Old City Tour" & "Grand Designs & Hidden Gems" are both shorter & cover different areas. I also run individual tours at a time and place to suit you!
What to remember
Important info
Service animals allowed. Public transportation options are available nearby. Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. The walk is about 3 miles/ 5 km up and down with many steps so comfortable walking shoes are recommended!. If you would prefer to walk a shorter distance then my other tour "Historic Old City Tour" maybe more enjoyable! Please see our website for details or contact us directly.. Children must be accompanied by an adult
What's included
Tour Guide and lots of interesting information about our beautiful city!
