Explore the Medieval streets, lined with distinctive black and white buildings and 13th century Rows shopping galleries. Visit the cathedral; the Medieval shrine of St. Werburgh dating back to 1092. Walk on the walls - the most complete in Britain – which surround the city and create a uniquely intimate setting for the vast array of festivals and events which take place in the city throughout the year. Cruise along the river or marvel at the 2,000 year old Roman Amphitheatre, where gladiators once fought and died.
To learn more about the heritage of this beautiful city, groups can take one of the many guided tours available, including History Hunter, Secret Chester, Roman Soldier Wall Patrol and of course not forgetting the fantastic Ghost Tour. All tours are bookable at any time and are taken by fully qualified guides. Telephone 01244 405626 or email h.beecher@visitchesterandcheshire.co.uk to find out more information.
Chester is the spiritual home of real shopping. Here, department stores rub shoulders with unique boutiques and markets stalls offer fresh local produce, all within easy walking distance in the heart of this traffic-free city.
Chester is an ideal destination to let your group explore as individuals, but also home to the main activities ideally suited to groups.
