Explore Whitby’s legends and landmarks at your own pace with an offline VoiceMap audio tour from Captain Cook to Whitby Abbey.
“Good tour & nice manner. Pointed out things we’d have missed otherwise. Just needs updating slightly (we did the tour in December 23 -Cook Museum closed down & sculpture at the end of the pier apparently gone).”
Explore Durham with Blue Badge guide Ken Bradshaw, from cathedral and castle to bridges, markets, and local stories on a private two-hour walk.
“Ken was very informative with so much knowledge but put it across in a very informal way so not too high brow. We saw some lovely views of the city that you would not find on your own and his knowledge of the cathedral when inside just brought it to life for you. Great tour fully recommend.”
