“My tour became upgraded to a private one since I was the only traveler on it today. Steph is an incredible guide, knows the city of Chester, and knows where the best food is as well. I had a personal four-hour tour seeing both the Roman and Anglo-Saxon aspects of the city, as well as tastings of South Indian, pub nibbles, hard cider, wine, Spanish food, as well as French Pastry—really too much food and drink to manage on one tour. The best part though was Steph herself, one of the friendliest and most personable tour guides I have ever known. I also met the owners and staff of many…”

Explore Chester’s Overleigh Cemetery with guide Caroline, hearing vivid stories of architects, children, refugees, and city life.

“The park like cemetery is a beautiful backdrop for Caroline’s stories of Chester’s past. She puts the history of the city on a human scale and makes it relevant using information about the lives of individuals who once lived there. There are politicians, business people, children, firemen, sailors and ordinary folk - who have lived their long-ago lives in Chester. The twenty minute walk from the centre of town to the cemetery crosses the river and winds along a path that follows the bank. It’s a beautiful walk and the tour is a lovely quiet way to spend the late afternoon.”
